    L2800 dies when engaging pto

    yes, most likely... It might be awkward, but try engaging the PTO with the seat tilted forward... or zip tie the sensor down. I ran the wire to the sensor, over the "arm" that detects if someone is seated in the seat (basically holding the sensor's arm in the down position)...

    L3400DT clutch adjust - PTO clutch froze?

    New (to me) B7100HST 4wd - All sorts of questions.

    I wonder instead of buying a shorter top link, buy Pat's Quick Hitch system to add 4" length to the lower lift arms?

    LA 805 Bucket Tilt

    You can also look into "needle valves" You can get them to control speed in one direction or both direction. I have a couple of adjustable needle valves, you can adjust how fast or slow you want it to work, vs. a single fixed restrictor speed. Plenty of places to buy... Need to know what...

    This is my 3pt ballast..............

    Since the pin location is at the lowest point, you have to pick the unit up to mount it on the tractor... Are you planning to make legs or have a separate "landing" or holding mount to be able to utilize your quick hitch receiver?
