Has anyone tried these on their Dexta or Major?

I'm not quite sure how you get the lift arms at the correct spacing for your implement without getting off?

Think you can still use a stab bar.

Any comments appreciated. :wink:

There's an adjustable spacer that you can use to set the width, just visible in the vid: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qYM0bOSBVJ8

But I'm inclined to agree, prob not worth the money. A quick-hitch A-frame is another option, but implements may have to be altered to match width etc.

One other point, such devices will reduce lift capacity slightly because you're moving the weight further back. :eyes:

They seem a good idea but are far too expensive - for that cost you could buy some old hook end lift arms ant fit them to a major for example - anyone ever tried doing that ?! :wink:
