Hi, everyone, it has been a long time from my last post. What i would like to know can the boom (s) be adjusted? reason the left side of the bucket is lower then the right side when i go to scoop up mud or snow or whatever the bucket doesn't sit flat it is almost like it is twisted is there anyway to adjust them? Thanks for the help
 
are you sure its the boom that is twisted and not say the bucket itself, or the quick attach?

SO<?? when you have bucket removed, do the boom arms touch the frame at the same time when lowered?there should be rest spots/tabs on frame where boom sits when lowered all the way!, you can see/measure the differences between them when bucket is off rather easy!

I do NOT think there is any way to adjust boom, as its designed to be solid , , so odds are if things are not even, its cause someone bent things
which I gather could be bent back with some effort and creativity !
 
mrbb is correct. Not adjustable. In addition to his suggestions, I'd also look at the pins the bucket pivots on. Uneven looseness/wear there could let one side of the bucket sag as well.
If you find the boom is not contacting the rests point at the bottom front fairly evenly, then you have a research project to looking for something bent, badly worn or partially broken.
Also, likely not the case, but 1 tire pretty low in pressure could let the machine rock one way or another and may not be apparent until some load is put on it.
