My Front Bucket on my Tractor is not level. I thought it might be the Cylinder on one side so I replaced it. Still not level. I took the tractor in to have the Hydralics checked out- they found no problems. I now assume the Lift arms are Bent. Is there something I am missing on this? If it is the Lift Arms how do I bend it back?

if everything is tight and pins equally worn, you probably hav a twisted loader frame. if the difference is up to about 1 inch, a 'temporary' solution is to fiddle with rear tires pressures (add air to the to the low side and remove pressure on the high side until the bucket is level. try to stay within alowed pressures.

If you have a wide front and it pivots in center what does front tire size or pressure have to do with it?? Check the back tire size and pressure

look for twisted frame mounts, I saw a pin lost out of a cylinder and the cylinder wedged back in the frame a couple of inches. loose bolts. If EVERYTHING is just like new sit it on concrete and spend several hours with a tape and straight edge. Only then use a much bigger loader, block the low side up and push down on the high side---no guarentees, you might end up welding a broken one!

Have you checked your front tire air pressure to see that it is equal. Back tire pressure will also affect bucket level even if front is equal.
