My local (very good) fab shop cut a piece of oversized bar stock, welded it on, milled it down flush with the sides of the existing hook, and re-drilled for about $60. Beautiful work!
Sounds like a very fair price for that custom work. Would easily be $100+ around here for setup, time and materials.
I've just done a google image search for quick hitches. It looks like the Cat 1 QHs from Speeco, Woods and Landpride all have adjustable top hooks that protrude farther from the QH bracket. Maybe another TBN member with one could post the hole spacing (on centers), and the distance from the vertical centerline of the holes to the inside wall of the "J" of the hook. If any one of them would work with the HF/Northern Hydraulics QH's, I'll check on ordering as a separate part.
