Problem with most attachments is that the manufacturers don't sell direct... we talked to one tiller manufacturer who was willing to sell direct, but weren't able to come to terms.
We have some other nice products on the way... but big things like tillers and mowers are a bit tricky.

I made an attachment that attaches to the 3 point hitch that has a 2-5/16" ball at the right height for my gooseneck trailers and a drawbar for bumper-pull trainers. It was only about $30 of material and an hour with the welder. I added a chain and a ring that hooke to the drawbar to stop unintended raising of the 3-point but I never had it happen before I added it either. The main thing I use this for is moving my horse trailers around. Just back up, raise the 3-point, and go. The tractor turns a lot tighter than my truck so I can maneuver easier. The only thing I can't move it my living quarters trailer which is almost 9000# empty. The 3-point isn't strong enough.

</font><font color="blue" class="small">( Ahhhh, it's all clear to me now.
Thanks for the great explanation, Bird. I hadn't thought of that, but then I never did credit myself with having common sense. /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif
Seems like a chain attached to the horizontal draw bar and a clevice or something on the tractor's drawbar would fix that from happening. Hopefully that is mentioned in the instructions that come with the receiver holder for people like me that don't follow TBN. )</font>
I have a rather interesting swinging drawbar on a 3pt hitch drawbar - it's an antique that came from a Ford 9N era.
Anyhow, I use it a lot here on a 100 series Ford tractor, & on the farm with some serious wagon weight behind it.
I promise you, the most serious issue is going _down_ a hill. With 18,000 of soybeans behind me, going down a hill & the wagon wants to push the tractor, it will ram the 3pt up that it will break something! Promise you it will!
Seems like a nice design on this, but it really, really should come with a safety chain to keep it down.

I noticed that the web page is updated with a picture showing how a chain like this would be used with this product. It looks to be a nice solution, easy to hook up. Did they add the feature, or was it always there.
Has anyone bought one of these lately who would care to comment on it's quality?

I've got one coming hopefully before the weekend. I let you know how the chain hook-up works out. Couldn't hardly go wrong for the price and very quick with emails.

It came today but I had to leave for work berfore I could play around with it. First I should say that are really fast on their shipping. I ordered it Monday and it got here today (Thursday).
It appears to be well made, good looking welds, nice paint. It even came with the hardware to attach it to the drawbar. There is a hole near the top of the upright to attach a chain, either with a bolt or one of those repelling type rings.
All in all, I'd say it will work fine.
