My old MF135 had draft control on the 3 pt lift. Yours? Shouldn’t drag except over rough ground.

If your Position Control is functioning properly you should have no need for check chains.
WHAT ABOUT THE INBOARD PIN POSITION OF YOUR TOP LINK?

3-Point Hitch - Kubota B3300SU + Zerco Check Chains + King Kutter Rotary Cutter
The Kubota B3300SU ( 33-hp / 1,800 pounds ) does not have POSITION CONTROL for the 3-Pt. hitch. Instead the B3300SU has 1/4"ing adjustment of the 3-Pt hitch, which is useful in its own way, but is NOT position control. When using a rotary cutter ("Bush Hog") you wish the mower deck to return...

If you use non-standard words for tractor parts it is very dificult to troubleshoot via the web.
I presume the "crank adjustment" is adjustment of the right Lifting Rod for leveling implements. Lifting Rod adjustment will have no effect if BOTH front corners of the Rotary Mower drag. If just one side is dragging, yes, Lifting Rod adjustment is in order. (The frozen part is called a Leveling Box. Generic Leveling Boxes are $100 - $150 from on-line venders.)
Do you have an Operator's Manual for your tractor? Should be pretty easy to find on-line, probably free. Here is a LINK:
