Has anyone tried to lift a 6 foot round bail with their 3 point hitch. Bail weighs around 1100 pounds. Mine tries to lift it but stops after a certain point. Never gets the bail completely off the ground. I can move it but no actual ground clearance. Seems as if a bypass limiter is reached on the lift.

Thanks, Mike

More than likely what is happening is that the weight sticking out that far from 24" behind the lift arms is now more than what the 3pt can lift.
Just like on your FEL the farther the weight sticks out the more it weighs.

I know it does fine with 830lbs worth of boxblade.
