I have both a 2320 and a 2520 and I hate the location/shape of the FEL control lever. I can't curl the bucket back without having to pull my right knee almost all the way to the center of the tractor. Has anyone made any modifications to the shape of the handle to eliminate this problem. I might say that my long legs don't help at all.

Is bending it an option?

A few people have heated them and then bent them to suit. Just repaint afterwards.

Thanks guys, the control lever on my 2320 is just as close as my 2520. It's time to fire up the torch and then sent it to the e-coaters. Thanks!

They are adjustable.................There is all the ball joints under the floorpan. I adjusted mine when i put my suspension seat on. No need to fire-wrench it! :confused2:
