Chipper PTO Chipper Does Not Lift High Enough

[JLD]

My 3PH does not lift my PTO chipper high enough. With uneven and rocky ground it sometimes scrapes. Can anyone recommend an off the shelf modification to get it higher (a few inches would help). I realize that it will raise the center of gravity of the tractor, but I would rather not scrape.

shorten the top link sometimes this gives you a better departure angle

Just what I was going to say, If you have it all the way in now you can buy a shorter one (about 20 bucks ) and leave it attached to the chipper when you take it off.

Shortening the top link does not buy me much, But it just occurred to me that I can replace the fixed length lift arm with another one that is adjustable, screw both sides tight, and get the few inches I need. Thanks for getting my brain in gear.
