The only brackets/yokes on the links should be at the bottom

Some of the tillers use little clevises instead of the pins.

If you mean instead of the pins that normally bolt onto the upper lift arms, I guess I have never seen that set up.

Sorry Norm for the confusion. Thanks Aaron for posting the picture. That is exactly what I have and the clevis at the top is too narrow for the new lift arms. I am going to have to a. widen the clevis or b. make a different method to attach the lift link.

The worst thing about switching from 3 pt implements to the 2 pt tiller is having to remove the lift pins on the lift arms. Therefore, I want to modify the link, but have not thought how I might do that yet. I have already tilled the garden for winter, so unless I get a job where the tiller is needed, I can wait until spring.:eek:

Aaron, what do some tillers use if they do not have the clevis at the top?

Yup, now I understand. Since those top pins are generally considered part of the tractor, I didn't realize they hooked up that way, (actually have never seen a 2pt tiller).

Thanks for the pics. and clarifing how a 2 point tiller is setup. I'm with Norm in not sure I have even seen a 2 point setup. You never know may come in handy someday. Seems I learn something new every time I visit this Forum.:D

Thanks Aaron. I do wish all a very happy thanksgiving!! Since it is NOT a holiday here we just have our own mini celebration!! Kids still have school and normal activities continue, but turkey and apple pie were on our table today!

I knew about 3 pt hook ups, but what about 2 pt that do not have clevises? Do they exist? I am thinking about a ball joint like on the 3pt, but the pin at the bottom would not allow side movement to go over the end of a pin. have to give it some more thought.

I think all of the 2pt tillers use the clevis. I guess you could either cut a few inches out of a standard side link (otherwise I think they would be way too long)& weld it back up or cut the "eyeball" off of a standard side link & weld it to your tiller's links.

The 3rd option, which would be my choice since I personally don't like the 2pt tillers, would be to just weld something like this-

to your tiller & use it like a 3 point tiller. You'd have to get a longer driveshaft but those are available everywhere.

I really do not know how much it weighed, but I can say that the front wheels were just off the ground and the lift had maxed out with the relief squealing. Therefore, it was at the max. Plus I was backing up in a tight place and I think that put the extra strain on everything. I often max the lift out and run in the relief range. (I need to get a gauge, to measure the pressure of the relief.)

No ROPS? "Providentially hindered" by the breaking of your lift arm is the term that comes to my mind followed by "Praise God."
