How do you chain the 3 point in the up position on a b7100? I see the spot under the set to put the chain link in, but where does the other end attach on the 3 point? Does anyone have a link with some photo's of how this done.

There should be a pin on the lift arm, on the opposite side of the heighth adjustment, just above the pin in the lower arm- that's where my chain attaches. It causes the 3 point to go a little crooked when it settles down, because the chain is pulling to the side, but it holds the lift up fine. I will get a photo of how mine is set up, if you need it.

Well, I do have a photo- click on it, and look to the left side.

Thank you so much!

Where did you get the bar that your hitch ball is on" that is pretty nice because it gets it back away from the 3 point. Does that hitch ball bar move side to side at all?

Also where did you get your turnbuckles. That looks cool as well the blue bars with the easy pin adjustments would be nice.

The drawbar came with the tractor- they are pretty common to find on ebay. Search Kubota B7100- they are always on there.
I make the telescoping stabilizers, and they work fantastic. I have just made a new set, which are rectangular with flatbar that slides in and out, and they will work on the heavier tractors, too. I hate the turnbuckles.
