I need to know if there is a left side and a right side attachments or they the same? My left side will not line up corectly but the right side is just fine. I would like to have the phone # again I do not find it on the web page. Thanks

Jand38,

The number I have is 1-888-243-4204.

If I understand your question correctly, the small side rods with the hole in them should be on the inside pointing toward each other (see attached photo). If you are not using the optional stabilizer bar, I looks like they would work either way. Looking at the Easy Change website I'm also a little baffled by the photo showing the stabilizer bar as that is not how my stabilizer mounts and I can only assume that is the old design. That photo show the attachments on opposite side from what I just stated above. I'm assuming you made all the set screw adjustments already?

The reason why I ask both of mine are the exactly the same the right one fits great the left one is my problem and by looking at the two attachments if they where made one reversed of the other I would be ok. The little spring attachment that hold up the release bar both of mine are on the right side and it would seem to me on should be on the right out side and one should be on the left out side thus you would have a right and a left so is there a right and left and I might have received two rights. Hard for me to explain that is why I wanted the phone # so I could call .

They are not made as rights or lefts. They just send out two of them. If one is not fitting properly, it's just not adjusted correctly. You may need to play with the set screws on the side and move the oddball one around and see where it fits your impliment the best.

They are like that. Just set them (via the adjusting nut & bolt) and push them under the tab....anyway you can get them under.

They are manufactured of like components, most likely assembled that way out of convenience. The lift pins have to be removed anyway - for installation on your tractor. After you've got the pins out, then slip a PEC over one of the lift arms. Reinsert lift pin through the PEC and the ball swivel so that the end with the hole faces in. Repeat on other side. Now both holes are on the inside and available to the stabilizer bar.

The small bolts on top that concern you are merely to hold the pin lock levers in the up position while maneuvering the lift arms into the implement pins. When not in use, they swing around almost 360 degrees. If you don't like where one is parked, lift the pinlock lever and move it to the side of your choice.

This might or might not be an issue on yours: When I installed mine, I thought I'd used the same sized spacers, but one didn't fit well.

When I looked at the extra spacers, I discovered they were not the same size, meaning I had installed a mismatched pair.........

Hope this helps.
