Stillhunter....did you buy the standard ones (102) and if so, did they fit the lift arms ok?? I also have a NH tc33d and I am worried that the distance to where the arm bends is too short. TIA

Sorry for the delay. At the time a couple years ago I think I bought the standard one. Not sure if there was a choice at the time. Mine fit fine

Interested in Pats QH, but not sure which to get. Can anyone tell me if Cat 1 or Cat 2 would fit better on a Kubota MX5100? Or what are the key dimensions for fit?

They are Cat 2, but can be used with Cat 1 using bushings.

The same in our case and that is why I ordered the Cat 2 to Cat 2 to have Pat's heavier hitch. I bush up to Cat 2 on some equipment.

Did Pat ever answer the questions about the binding that is created when the ball at the end of the lift arms can't allow rotation because the 4 bolts are tightened down? The problem was created when sideways movement of the implement required rotation on the balls at the end of the arms. I understand you can tighten the sway bars/ chains but that creates other problems. I saw the question asked a few times but never saw an answer. I think those asking the question were going leave the 4 bolts out or loose. Is that a problem?

What implement are you using that needs to swing side to side enough to cause this problem?

I ended up not tightening down the two side bolts and left the U bolt loose so the Pat's setup can still swivel on the ball on the end of the arm. So far no issues. Prior I was seeing a little binding when using my boom flail mower (like they use for side of the road maintenance) and the boom sees resistance. That was resulting in the 3 point pivoting away from the boom side and binding. I am not seeing why doing it this way would be a problem.
