My 7200 is 1995 model and the arm stop (piece that arm bolts to) has slot in the rear and round hole in front where it bolts to shank. this allows the arm stop to be moved from side to side thus moving the closing wheel arm. Little awkward to adjust (need socket and extension) but once they are adjusted, never have to worry about them again. If you don't have that rear slot in your arm stop, then I can think of two solutions. One would be to remove the arm stop and get a carbide die grinder or milling machine and cut the rear round hole into a slot to allow for side to side adjustment. Shouldn't take much of a slot for adequate adjustment. Two, which since you already have the r-k bearings you may not like, but Shoup has a weld on bearing kit (PF7200) that actually has eccentric bushings that fit in the bearings providing side to side adjustment, page 24 of the Spring 2008 catalog or here is link: http://www.shoupparts.com/Catalog/View.cfm?type=Product&ShoupID=PF7...
