RIGHT UPPER LIFT ARM FOR JOHN DEERE R111547

The right upper lift arm R111547 is an aftermarket part designed for the rear lift on John Deere tractors. Mounted on the right side, it is used on 7000 and 7010 Series models. This part is part of the hitch and lift assembly, used to guide mounted or semi-mounted implements compatible with the tractor’s lift system.

Role of the Arm in the Rear Lift

An upper lift arm plays a key role in the operation of the rear hitch. It helps secure the implement, transmits forces between the tractor and the equipment, and facilitates the lifting and lowering movements controlled by the lift mechanism.

In the field, this component works in conjunction with the other elements of the three-point hitch. Its condition affects the guidance of the implement and the consistency of the work, particularly when the tractor is used with mounted equipment that requires stable positioning.

John Deere Application and Position Marker

Part number R111547 corresponds to a right-hand installation. This detail is essential to avoid mixing up the right and left sides during replacement. It is designed for John Deere tractors specifically from the 7000 and 7010 series, with a detailed list of models provided in the product sheet.

This part belongs to the hitch and lift subfamily. It is used on tractors operating with various agricultural implements compatible with the rear lift, such as soil tillage, seeding, or crop maintenance equipment. If your machine has undergone a lift system modification, it is still advisable to perform a visual inspection of the existing installation before placing an order.

How to Identify the Correct Part Number

To select this lift arm, first enter the part number you are looking for: R111547. Then check the following on your tractor:

• presence of a rear hitch;
• whether the upper right link is installed;
• use on a John Deere model listed among the announced compatible models;
• visual match with the part being replaced.

This method is particularly useful when multiple lift variants exist depending on the tractor model. Even a slight uncertainty about the mounting side or the hitch configuration can result in a different part number.

When to Replace This Lift Arm

Replacement may be necessary if the arm shows deformation, significant play at the mounting points, marked signs of wear, or a crack. These defects can interfere with the lift’s operation and accelerate wear on the pins, bushings, and associated components.

When replacing the arm, it’s also a good idea to check the condition of the existing pins, ball joints, cotter pins, and stabilizers. Before ordering, simply verify the correct orientation and the part number you’re looking for to ensure you select the part that fits your setup.
