To get the hydraulic adjustments spot on it would be necessary to replace ALL the moving parts in the hydraulic system being that wear in the control lever pivot is" Magnified " by the time it reaches the control valve so if you can get the Draft to function somewhere around the reference lines on the quadrant all will be good, example ,again Position control lever in the Transport position and the draft lever moved either up or down so that the implement starts to lift you should be able to go to the rear of the implement and gently lift and lower the Brushhog .
Bent control arm ! the control arm should be when looking along it,s length be straight or there abouts, I have in the past had this experience with a 178 Massey (same system ) could be worth looking at but start by trying the draft fiddle first.
Amount of thread protruding from both the Position and the Draft adusting screws, Generally When I look at them I see 3 to 4 threads clear of the locknuts ,Remember this is a quick reference only.
I feel you are nearly there .:dance1:
happy days.
