Had BH on for a couple of months. It appears that I left the rock shaft at full up when I last mounted the BH. I am suprised that it help pressure as long as it did. The BH mount wore a large flat spot in the top of the pin. I had to do some file work to get the 3pt linkage back on. One more thing to remember.

I have worried about doing this myself.

In the beginning I use to disconnect my link arms and zip tie them back outa the way.
Now I just zip tie my rock shaft lever in the down position.

Oh, I can get the zerk out, but getting grease in is the issue. I'm going to have to pull the lower pivot pin out and find out whats going on. I hope to get to that this week, before the next push on the landscaping.
