So i've searched via google the tractorbynet.com site for gannon HSD box scrapper reviews and separately for worksaver quick hitches with limited success.
I've already ordered a 2nd position valve for my tractor as i assume i will need to add a Hydraulic top link, I would love to add TNT but need to save some more money for the side link and 3 rd position valve.
Quick Hitch
I'll start with the work saver hitch QH-102. Does anyone here use at Cat2 Work Saver or even the cat 1 hitch? If so what are your thoughts @ $515 its over a $100 cheaper than the Land Pride QH20. I'm really sick and tired of trying to squeeze between my carry all and the rear tires to hook up the pins. I built it according to CAT2 QH dimensions. My Brush hog is QH compatible I will have to perform surgery on my Split Fire to make it work but Its such a pain to get out and adjust the stabilizers in the winter with gloves.
Box Scraper
I can find plenty of Gannon reviews for gannon rollover box scrapers and other smaller gannon box scrapers and everyone seems pretty happy.
I want a model with Hydraulic shanks and preferably replaceable end plates I don't care if i will likely never wear them out i also drilled my bucket and put a replaceable edge in it as well. The Gannon is at the top of my list .
Your feedback would be appreciated
I was also hoping that ETA would introduce a hydraulic model a little lighter duty and more affordable than the Beast
The only two models i've found that really fit my desires are:
FFC 440 HD 88" $4650 @1670 lbs
Gannon HSD 88" is $3550 @1297 lbs 31.6 Cuf
Others models i've considered are:
Land pride HR3584 Priced out more than the Gannon weighs 1119 lbs 31 Cuf but is only rated for 65 hp I'm at 85HP plus no replaceable plates. i would prefer something a little wider than my tractor. My tires squat between 85-86"
Cammond 4C4 and 4C5 weigh 1470 lbs no serviceable side plates and no dealer network that i can find in michigan price TBD
