Hi, Alvy! I had to lengthen the slot on my 108, too, to get the gear to work. On my 148R (built on a 108 chassis), I bent the lever enough to avoid that problem and it works fine with the stock slot. I won't know if this lever fits until I get it installed and then I'll bend the lever and fashion an extension as needed to get it to fit. It's a trial and error thing. I'll try to document the lever geometry for you. It will be a week or more before I get to that point I think.
This is the second tractor that I've put ags on the front. I really like the look, even if it's a little silly. Kind of a macho thing, I think. At my age, I need all the machismo I can muster.

My orange tractor has ags on the front but it also has 4WD.
