Quick Hitches Land Pride Quick Hitch

[Piston]

Hey, maybe Piston will see this and give us an accurate measurement between his lower hooks?? Or anyone else that has an LP QH for that matter??

I won't be home till the weekend....

I hope after everyone reads all these post you will just buy the best "Land Pride". Have it done with. Just back up and GO. I now have Cat 1 on my Grand L 3540 and Cat 2 on my M7040.

Heheheheh. That's why we've had so much discussion on this thread. It appears LP hitches are either made by someone else or LP makes them for others. It also appears there are several variations of LP hitches. That aggravates me. Now we are dealing with the fact that there might also be varying widths involved.

I'm sortta brand loyal. If I have a good experience I repeat by sticking with that brand. In today's World that don't mean much. Seems almost impossible to find something actually made by the brand selling it. Land Pride especially.

One of the main reasons I do really like Landpride implements, is because they do make their own implements. As far as I'm aware, Landpride does not make implements for others, nor do they have their own made by others. It seems this is mostly just speculation just because they look similar.


There are only two variations of the quick hitches made by Landpride, the QH15 which is a category 1 quick hitch, and the QH20 which is a category 2 quick hitch.

My LP HR3584 box blade is a duplicate of a Gannon down to the smallest part. Someone else mentioned that the only difference they could find between a LP QH and a Speeco was the labels. In today's world of patent infringement I'm not sure how that works.

It appears by Speeco's website that they make all their own stuff.

It also appears from the phone conversations with LP that they make their own stuff as well.

Maybe they figured out some way to duplicate design to the smallest details without infringement??

QH-15 is 27" Inside and 29 1/2" outside.

I seen the SpeeCo and they are not the same.

Yep, not the same at all.

Sorry, I was just going off what RickB had said about them since he'd sold both LP and Speeco. My local supply store carries Speeco but I don't have local access to a LP.
