My Harbor Freight Quick Hitch

[Tx Jim]

I bought a HF quick hitch several years ago and discovered the lower hooks were Cat ll size instead of Cat l. I just use Cat l to Cat ll bushings to take up the slack.

I just ordered the Adapter Bracket for the 27.5" model by calling the Harbor Freight at their -800 number and using the aforementioned part number 29309-0VGA. The price is now $16.99 and shipping was $6.99 to my address in Georgia. Wanted to verify the part number still works for you all.

I just noticed this post and your photo. I like your trailer hitch add-on! I'll have to cobble one together myself.

Boxelder, welcome!
If your adapter arrives packaged as silly as mine, you might post a photo. Mine was in a little box about the size of a brick - then that was enclosed in a carton 2 ft on each side stuffed with plastic peanuts. I didn't think even UPS's best efforts could damage that 40 hp-capable hitch adapter but I guess you never know.

Two or three years later im still amazed they dont advertise the adapter.People would be more happy and they would make some money.Ive elmailed them about it before i returned my hitch,but they dont seem to know or care..

Agri Supply advertises it for $17.49. I'm not sure what the shipping charges to your location will be though.

Thanks for reminding me. Called and placed an order.

Now that I've adapted most of my implements to accept the QH's hook, I haven't used that adapter for a couple of years.

On the rotary mower that needs a flexible-length top link, I use a loose loop of chain instead of the hook. This lets the mower follow rough ground but it still lifts normally.

FYI: the HF in our area now has the cat1 QH on sale- NOT clearance per the store for $79.99, before any coupons.

That's the lowest I've ever seen it.

Do you connect the chain to the QH hook? If so, could you share a picture?
