I have a Bush Hog too, and it looks as if the 3/4" bolt (and bushing) are made for a Quick Hitch type attachment. The distance is the required 15" between it and the lower pins. This leaves the top hitch pin unused. With this, I do not have to use the adapter. It appears the fit is a little tight, but will work once I replace the J-hook bolts with pins.

Question is: is that what that lower bolt is actually for?

I am pretty good at Math, I don't think it's less, maybe you were speaking of something else...

Anyway, with the Width: 27-1/4", you might need to widen it bit to fit everything. I got the HF and it was 27-1/2" and in order to work with the KK Rake I had to take it out a bit so I would imangine that the 1/4 lost on that one is going to require some mod as well.

Seem to fit other impliments very well.

Looks to be the same thing though...

Yea I was replying to the previous post by Mike57 who said that some places wanted more than 300 dollars. But your right HF is the cheapest, and seems to once adapted to go with everyones equipment fine working.I have seen any posts that it twisted or failed,so thats a good point .
I had the HF hitch and returned it after i found I needed the adapter and also with that it wouldn't work with all my attachments. Hated to do it with shipping etc. But they stood behind the return.Good Company.

Doesn't look as beefy as the name brand ones I've seen.

Been away for a while building my mountain home. The HF quick hitch is working well. Hasn't come off with tall the work I've done.

For those of you that were curious to see what that foundation looks like posts ago....here is a picture. One more month and I'm done......Very time consuming and I am beat.

Regards!

Well my Harbor Freight QH has taken quite the beating. It has bent and broken one weld. Tonight it goes under the welder and I am going to beef it up. I'll try and get some pictures of the results.
