I am trying to attach a Cosmo Cement Mixer to my B7800 3 pt hitch. I would appear the lower arms are too short for the implement, drive shift binds and hydralic cylinder will not fit properly. Anyone run into similar situation, or am I just not putting it on properly? Can I get longer lower arms for this machine?

I am in the midst of putting on a Gearmore cement mixer (a one bagger) on my B2710 (same as yours for all intents and purposes). You can expect to have to cut a PTO shaft to fit. This mixer is usually used on a larger JD. In my case the PTO ends up fairly short, but does allow for a useful range of tilt without uncoupling. Still, at the extreme ends of travel the universal joints will complain, so you have to be careful there.
The top cylinder needs to be about 16" retracted at the most. It's a close fit. ....
