My 4440 is the best machine I own and I have much newer. I am 6'4" and when I stand on the lift arms in the "up" position I am eye-to-eye with anyone in the operator seat. They raise plenty high.
I've got lots of Deere machines around here and I cuss their three point for one reason or another. I think IH had that one down way better from operator standpoint. I would second the bottom whole comment for the third link. The connection is mechanical for those, so have someone operate the linkage (when it is off) while you stand behind. Look on the right side just under the cab(imagine just under the operators arse) and you will see the linkage moving. There are some bushings in the pivots and if those are gone it will make lots of slop for you. Having said this, I just worked over the hydraulic linkage on the 7800 so it is possible I am confusing the two, but I am about sure that is right. I haven't been out to the shed and am still having my coffee!

The only weak point is that stupid A/C compressor. Get ready to replace it every two years. That cab is a crockpot without it.
