With nothing attached to the lift, with it raised as high as it will go, I can lift the lower lift arm that hooks to the equipment almost 5" higher.
Is this normal or can it be adjusted to go higher? To get the lift working I replaced the cam follower pin, had the cam built back-up where it had worn and replaced the fluid. I also adjusted it by the manual.
Thanks for any help!

KB..... ..Ford spec: 30 inches lift. My 8N's lower arms go from about 8" to 38". Remember, its power up and gravity down, and without the hydraulics running, you can lift arms to the top by armstrong..... ..Dell

KB,
I fought mine for a long time. I rebuilt everything and adjusted per FO manual but I still couldn't get the full range out of it. I finally ordered the adjusting jig and instruction manual from Zane Sherman, a long time contributor and sponsor of this board. His method and jig take's into account all the years of wear in your system and linkage. I found it easy to use and all that was promised. My lift works like a new one.

I realize this sounds like an advertisement, but I don't know Zane. I just know it worked as promised. It might be an option to you.

P.S. If it wasn't 12 deg. right now I would go out measure the height for you. I'm sure someone else can fire it off the top of their head.
