I picked up a cheap harrow and the top lift isn't long enough for it to lay flat. The back is tilted up with the arm fully extended. I don't have this problem with my mower or box scraper. I have the quick-connects on the bottom lift arms so maybe that's causing a problem. Anyone know of an extension for the top lift? It just needs the right ends to extend the lift and allow the harrow to lay flat. Thanks!

You could just add a short length of chain.

Has to not be flexible. The hydraulics on the top lift needs to be able to lift and put down the attachment. I guess I could use a chain but it seems like it might damage the lift if it gets yanked suddenly.

Gravity puts it down. A chain will will work.

Spelling KUBOTA correctly should be less of a challenge.

Excuuuuuse me. The top arm lifts. I don't want to just fasten something to the harrow but lift it!

How does the top arm lift?

This is a 3 point top link:

Why don't you go crawl back under the rock you came out from under.


Pics of your setup now would help a lot, then we can help with a solution.

If you can get us some photos of your harrow and top link it would help us come up with a possible solution.

I think he has hyd top link. So it will lift the rear as he is talking about. kabota shifty, still a piece of chain should be a simple solution.

My guess is the 3rd arm mount on the implement is not original. Could have a part missing on it but need pictures to have real idea.
