I want to convert the 3pt linkage on my B8200

To this style;

Using this linkage;

Problem i have come across, is the Heim joint on the linkage on EBAY has a 3/4" hole. All i can find are 5/8"-5/8" and 5-8"-7/8" pins. I know i will have to drill out the upper lift arm holes to fit the 5/8" threaded pin, no big deal.
My questions. Is it common to use a 5/8" pin in the 3/4" hole? Where can i find the 3/4" pins with a 5/8" threaded portion?

(reason for doing this is the threads in my side adjustable link are completely destroyed from the previous owner doing some welding on it. The newer linkage parts are more common at my local farm and barn.)

Done.

Changed my stabilizer links too. The original ones were bent enough that it made it a fit turning them. Had to cut out the clevis from the OE stabilizers to get the length i needed on the new ones (see installed pic).

I used Yanmar parts. as that's all i could find to fit what i wanted to do.
Drilled out the upper lift arms to 11/16" so the 5/8" shank (really .661") could fit through. (you can see the 3/4" pins in the pic of the stabilizers)

Pretty easy to do.
The gentleman over at Hoyetractor.com really helped alot by answering all my questions.
If anyone wants part numbers, i'll be glad to put them here.

I like the ball end of the top link way better than the clevis style. Probably more forgiving if you hit something hard and won't bend like the stock Kubota ones do.

Yeah, it's just a much nicer setup. Plus all my old stuff was bent and the threads were destroyed, so i really had no adjustability. Now i have plenty.

Regarding those heim joints, they are at the excess end of the rotation/pivot in the mounted position as seen in the pics.

Pls send me a pic of the end of the feedback bar that attaches to the controller arm. I need to make one for my B8200

Are you talking a picture of the links for 3pt lever?

 

[SRG]

Let me know if these help and if you need something else....

It's the rod between the control valve and the RH lift arm. Need pic of how it's connected to the control valve. It is connected to the lever opposite the main control lever

In the last picture that SRG posted, he shows the connection of the feedback rod to the valve body.
Look at the top of the picture.

Rained out and home from work early. I took a couple more pics, hopefully these are a little more help....

The last two are perfect. Thank you so much!

No problem.
Document the mods and fixes you do to your B8200 with pics and info on here. There just isn't all that much info on the interwebz about these models.

Really good, easy diy mod. Just got my first tractor and I will use this thread for inspiration.
