Lower lift arms

[L-M Ford]

My lower left arms on Ford 3000 currently measures 32 inches. I’m running into situations where implements are hitting rear tires when fully lifted. Can I go to a longer lift arm. Google left arms and I can only find a set that is 34 inches.
Your thoughts or suggestions are much appreciated

Longer lift arms , YES... A couple inches will make a difference ?? Do you need to raise full up to get implement off the ground?? Only come up so far so your wheels don't rub???

It's when I have the box scraper on and the ripping tines that did into the tires.

A quick hitch will put the implement back several inches.

I had that same situation. I cut the arms, ground out to a v, and welded in 3 inch spacers. By far the cheapest solution. Ellis

Could the position of your top link be the culprit? As it lifts the implement is the implement rotating the shanks into the tire? If the topping pin on the tractor is higher than the pin in the box blade mast in working position, when lifted it will rotate the shanks forward into the tires. Where as a pin in the tractor lower than the mast pin in working position would rotate the shanks back, away from the tires when raising.
