Re: 2" receiver lift arms
I know you can buy weld-on replacement lower "ball eyes". IF you have a welder, why not buy a pair of them, and simply weld them to some 2" square tubing.

Re: 2" receiver lift arms
I kind of agree with LD1. I think my landscape rake is about the lightest implement I have and it weights around 350#. When you extend it that far out from the lift arms and then add the stress of actually using it I would be concerned about damaging the bucket or twisting something.
What implements do you have in mind and what tasks do you plan for them?

Oh, as far as what I will use it for, one thing is planting many feed strips in remote areas. With broadcast spreader on back, I will have lightweight drag harrow/boom pole on loader. This allows one to plant and cover seed in one pass albeit in reverse.

You can get a atv 3 point hitch. It hooks up to one 2" receiver.

Re: 2" receiver lift arms
Seems like it be easier to adapt this to mount on the bucket
3-Point quick hitch for Tractors - 27-1/2" Clearance
than to buy lift arms etc..

Re: 2" receiver lift arms
thanks everyone. But, I don't need any of that stuff...already saw all that in searches....just want to keep it simple and plug simple lift arms into Payne heavy duty clamp-on receivers I already have. Guess I'll have to have them made if no one knows of any out there. I do appreciate the advice and input.
