I bought some chain at TSC plus some clip-type connectors. Two connectors are big enough on their small ends for my 3/4" top connector pins to go through it. Plan to use chain plus connectors for the top link on my brush hog. Will find a down slope to determine the maximum length of chain to use to keep the drive shaft from contacting the deck.
In the meantime, with the hog off, I've the connectors and chain attached to the mid holes on my draft arms and drooped down to near my drawbar. Can attach the mid point of the chain to the top of the "y" on my Gravely cart hitch as a runaway chain.
Think going to the chain has me talked into getting the Pat's quick hitch, because iMatch or Speeco stuff won't work.
Guess I should go out and take some pics.
