1855 three point

I have an old 1855 that I like to have the grandkids use to move bales with the 3 point. The tractor shifts so easy. The steering is fine and when we use a regular 3
point bale fork no problems. But I have one 3 point bale fork that lifts the bale 6 feet high and has a cylinder on the end so I can dump a bale into a feeder. Lately the
3 point 6 foot bale feeder will not go all the way up, but once in a while it will. Today I put a regular 3 point bale fork on the 1855 and I noticed all 4 bolts that
attach the third 3 point arm to the tractor bracket were loose. Is this bracket just a bracket or does it have another function also. short of taking on bale fork off,
putting the one on and trying it could this be my problem and tightening those 4 bolts solve the problem?
 
Definitely tighten that top link bracket up. But, regarding your lifting problem, is the draft control linkage messed up somehow? Spring broke or something bent? If the control lever moves all the way whether the 3point goes all the way up or not, that's the only other thing that controls that short of something blocking the movement inside.
