So, the new tractor came yesterday but, not having had a 3PH before, I'm curious about whether there's supposed to be a bolt on this upper 3PH mount. Please take a look at the pics on this page and give me some feedback. Thanks.

You may also be missing a bushing. There shouldn't be that much free play in the joint. Check other fittings that look similar, could be there is a bushing missing. ....
