Quick Hitches Quick Hitch?

On mine, that would usually tip the implement back too far, even with the top link adjusted short.

But on one implement, that idea did work using my adapter in post #7. It had the lower than standard pin height, about 13 inches. The adapter went upwards at about a 45 degree angle, then I put a pin and bushing in a close hole and through the hitch hook.

You should not use the hook on a movable part. It could come loose and damage something. If you use a link pin it.

Agreed, but in my case it could not come out of the hook without lifting the implement, which was held down by the lower hook latches.
