I do not use the mower that I ordered with my 2023 LX3310. I have found a buyer for the mower but he needs all the lift hardware. I am removing it but cannot get the rear right hand lift arm off the lower link pin. I loosened the lower link nut and bolt and slid the pin to the side, It was far enough to get the left hand lift arm off but the right hand lift arm is larger and wont come off in any position, Help, what am I missing.

Also as I look at the front lift shaft I don't see how that is going to be able to be removed.

I cannot help with the right rear as I do not have a backhoe and have plenty of room back there. However, the front links are held in with a pin that has a washer and cotter pin towards the middle of the tractor.

Also, make sure to get the spacer bushings for the rear before reinstalling your lower three point hitch arms.

This video may be helpful for removing the backhoe subframe on the right side.

It looks like you need to remove the PTO shield and the pin attachment part shown in your picture. There are two unpainted bolts in your picture and I think there are two more below those (hidden by the tabs hanging down). I think if you remove the bolts you can slide that out towards the rear.

I don’t know what that vertical hose is for but probably is for hydraulics??

The hose is the dipstick.
The gray plates on each end which are covered by hIs PTO shield are the bottom of the ROPS.
