is anyone having a problem with the lift links on 270tl loader?

Well I guess my suggestion for you to post your question in this forum didn't get any replies.

Maybe a picture will help.


I don't understand how the bucket could bend and break them.

When the dealer got my new 250TL delivered both were bent/damaged in shipping. He had one in stock that he installed before delivery the second one he sent direct to me to replace as that one wasn't bent as bad. The new replacements were made substantially beefier than the originals. If they can bend in shipping my guess is there is a lot more stress on them with a bucket. Makes me wonder with the other problems I've been having with my new?? 3050 CVT what else has NH cut to the bare bones minimum for the almighty buck? Leaving their dealers and customers hanging. I can take pictures of the replacements when the tractor returns from the dealer so you can see the difference and I still have the one bent one. Sorry I didn't respond sooner I thought you meant the lift arms had bent.

If your loader is still under warranty I'd be knocking on your dealers door.

My tractor returned yesterday so here are the pictures I promised. The one like yours was bent along the cracked paint line. The replacements are three sided much heavier built than the originals. Let us know how you make out with yours.
