Are these Quick Hitch compatible?
I put the QH bushings on my Bearcat and it hooks up like a champ!

I believe it says it is but that would add even more length to the pto shaft requirement. They must have given you a more compatible drive shaft.

Sorry - I think you misunderstood what I meant. I was asking about the QH bushings because I want to put them on my WoodMax when it arrives. I currently have them on my Bearcat.
As far as shaft length - I actually have a stub extension on my PTO. It also works great.

My Quick Hitch holds implements further out by several inches, that's why I mentioned that, the problem is length...and I did not know of a stub extension, will check that out, thanks

I don't think that's the exact one that I have, but you get the idea. It basically adds the length of the Quick Hitch to the shaft coming out of your tractor. I've been running mine for a couple of years now with no problem.

that's a great idea and a relatively inexpensive solution, less expensive than a new shaft.
Spent three hours in the woods today chipping, and the hitch came in two on the way back when I raised the chipper too high up. I examined the shaft,
it looks fine, no abuse, but I'd really like to pick up another two or three inches of overlap.

Anyone happen to be using the Woodmaxx WM-8H with 19 PTO HP?
I have a B26TLB and wondering if it will really be enough to power the chipper. I know the spec says 19HP min (which is what the B26 has) but would prefer not to purchase if I'm right on the edge. I see it has a variable infeed, so perhaps could just slow it down, provided it's not so slow I'd be better off renting from time to time.
