I read the replies here this morning and i had pretty much given up on this kit but i decided to give it another try.
Sure enough as some of you mentioned, the pivotpoint didnt match that of the liftarms heightwise, the bracket pivot point needed to come down a bit more so i adjusted them down with pieces of flat iron as shims and now it works like its supposed to :D
Reason i went for this style of stab kit is my old ford 5000 had one, i might be wrong but i think they were actually an option from the ford dealer back in the day and these telescopic bars or whatever to call them works great if you run a grader or snowblade behind you and want to adjust it all the way to one side.
That being said, the ford 5000 stab bars appeared to be much higher quality then the ones i got now, im pretty sure its made of chinesium and quite a bit more sloppy than what i remember from the 5000. The new ones seems thight enough for what they are once they are locked in, and for the price they will do.
texasmark im in Europe so im sure its not much help in me telling you were i bought them since i got them localy, but im pretty sure i seen simular tube kits on some of the big tractor sites in the states as well.
