Re: Pat\'s Easy Change - B7800
I just installed them. They work fine. The optional separator arm is flimsy, but it does what it is suppose to. You still need to have something to keep the arms separated the right distance. Unless you make one of your own theirs is OK.

The objective is to keep the lower 3ph arms at the same distance apart and from swinging around wildly.... so, I use a bungee cord to hold them together and set the links for the right distance apart... works for me and the bungee cord flexes around when needed.

Sorry to catch this post so late, but I've had a set on my 7800 for well over a year. Best investment I made. They were well made, installed easy, and did just what they said they would do.
Only suggestion I might make is that you may need a longer top link. I haven't replaced mine yet, but I think I am on the last two or three threads.

Hey Dave,
That's great stuff. Thanks again, to all, for the excellent input.
(I cannot remember why, but when I first joined TBN, I thought the PECS was a great idea -- I ran right out and measured my lift arms and decided "not" for the B7800. Thanks again for all you B7800 owners' specific help with this!)
I guess I'll head down to TSC for another top-link. Can do!
One nice feature: as I understand it, the PECS puts the implement a little further back. I borrowed my buddy's roto-tiller this past weekend -- it was right up to the ends of the PTO shaft. A few inches would have helped - immensely!
OTOH, the KK 60" Shredder may make the front a little light... If so, I guess I'll need the FEL. Hmmm... We'll see!
Be cool, /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif
