quick hitch

I've found a Quick Hitch at Tractor Supply. It's Cat 1, which I need for my Kubota L4400. I need something by this Friday. Question is, is this a decent unit? I have a Woods 72 inch finish mower, Woods 72 inch Rotary mower and a Woods 72 inch box blade. Thanks, J.R.

I put together a quick-attach loader mounted quick hitch for my JD 2520 with 200CX loader this afternoon. Parts needed were a Harbor Freight quick hitch, two 10 inch wide by 17 inch long pieces of channel iron and the quiick attach loader hooks and pins available from John Deere. Pictures show...

I have this set up on my 2320 but now that winter may finally be over I have removed the 47 blower and installed the front end loader I find the stand for the loader hits the front quick hitch bracket and combo bracket and made it a little difficult to latch the locks on the FEL. I installed the...

I have always liked the idea of quick hitches, but given that my rake and box blade are King Kutter XB attachments with Category 0 spacing, using a quick hitch was not an option until now. 1 quick hitch from Harbor Freight - $69 on sale 3 hours of cutting, measuring wrong, re-cutting and...

Anyone have any good deals on a that step up for x585?

this tired old man needs some help getting a quick hitch rig for his 5525. what do you guys suggest? any brand i should avoid? thank you.

OK....I was just reading (yet again) about quick hitches....and the ensuing debate about who's is better. :D QUESTION: Who was the original guy that came up with a quick hitch?? And....is he still in the buisiness of offering that product? Having originated a few new concepts and...

I can get a HF quick hitch for about $70 and thought it might be a cheap way to lift and skid logs. Thinking I could attach a chain or tongs to the top link or weld a hook on the cross bar. Not really worried about tweaking it a bit with heavier logs and just using it for that purpose, but...

Is anyone here using the landpride or woods quick hitch with adjustable toplink? I have a deere Imatch as so far have been very happy with it until recently. I haven't had any fittment issues with any attachments till now. I picked up a woods harley rake and the toplink doesn't fit. It's too low...

Got my modifications done to my Herd spreader so that I can use it with my John Deere quick hitch. Basically I just welded a couple pieces of angle iron to the uprights that were drilled for a 3/4 inch pin. I used bushings from Tractor Supply. I probably should have drilled the holes just...

Would like to know pros and cons on 3 point quick hitches. I have seen both here on tbn. Thanks Framer

Hi All, First post :) hope this is the right forum for this, anyway I just got a 4110 and now I'm starting to get some impliments, what are your thoughts on the quick hitch's like deere's Imatch, do they work well, and are they compatible with all 3pt impliments, and are they worth it? Thanks...

Trying to find the thread about the fellow TBN'r who adapted the 3 pt quick hitch to the front bucket and used the back blade on it for moving snow banks. Part of thread "I weld junk metal" etc. Thanks, jw5875

Hello. I recently modified a 3-point quick hitch to fit my skidsteer for using tractor implements. The boom pole is incredibly handy.

Have a chance to buy a good used BX2750 front mount snowblower complete with quick hitch that came off a 2003, BX2200. I would like to install it on my BX2350. Are they compatable? It has a crank shoot.....Thanks for the help:)

Hi everyone, first time post. Would like to say this is a great site with alot of great people. I have a jd 4300 with a fel, backhoe attachment, bush hog, turning blade and disc. I would lke to get a quick hitch. Does it make it easier to hook up attachments? Which one is better, HF or JD...

I am 60 and getting too old to horse around implements and want or need both a cat l and cat ll quick hitch to cover my things. For cat ll, I would use behind a 75hp JD5520 4wd that I pull an 8ft chisel plow with. I add 1500 lbs of weight so it really would get used hard. I'm thinking I need a...

I have been fascinated by the quick hitches that guys have sworn by or at here on the forum--the Harbor Freight example in its 2 versions of different widths is a favorite or a curse--depending on who you talk to. I now have several tools that I have made and have had occasion that I wanted...

I have provided a link to the harbor freight web site for a quick hitch. I know that the spread on my BX-1850 3-point hitch is 20". Has anyone bought one of these quick-hitch? There are three models on this page. Harbor Freight Tools I am not sure what the difference is between the top...

Greetings, I've been considering purchasing a quick hitch for my 165. I typically use a harrow, a bush hog, and have recently acquired a set of bottom plows. What brand and category would you recommend? Has anyone seen a quick hitch that has a mount for a tailor hitch ? Thanks, Michael

I have just ordered a new bx 25 with the quick hitch and snow blower attachment. My question is can the quick hitch part of the snow blower be left on when you re-install the FEL?

Hi, Have any of you modified a Caroni 1900 flail (the one from agrisupply) to fit a Speeco/Harbour Freight/i-Match style QH?? I have a Speeco. I just got mine yesterday and went to size it up tonight. On the mower the top link connection and the bottom links are about 4" too far apart...

I would like to get this type of quick hitch for my L4400 and I was wondering if anyone else had them and knew if they would fit. They are sort of similar to Pat's quick hitch but Pat's web site says the lift arms need to be straight for about 4" for theirs to fit and my lift arms are only...

Hello all, How much do the JD ballast boxes usually cost? Also, has anyone bought one of those non-JD quick hitches, like the ones on Ebay? If so, how do you like it? Thanks, Ryan

I bought a quick hitch for my 5325. I thought it would fit the MX 6 but found the pins on the MX6 are a couple of inches short even with JD's expensive little adapter kit. Anyone made a modification to make this rig up work? Thanks.

Kubota Snowblower & Quick Hitch Availability I purchased a new Kubota B2320 in September of this year. Along with the tractor and loader, I purchased a B2733A quick hitch, BX2763A hydraulic angle front blade, BX2750D snow blower, B2734 mid PTO kit, and BX2735 front half PTO. After telling the...

I bought a B2920 a couple months ago. my dealer said I would be able to use the front plow from my BX2350 but would need a new quick hitch which should be available by November. I called today and they said the quick hitches are still not available. The snow will be here soon, does anyone know...

Hi, This might sound like an odd request but I wonder if there is anyone what can tell me the approximate dimensions for the quick hitch for the 4100. I'm looking at buying one of the net and want to get estimated shipping costs but need dimensions. What is the approximate overall: Width...

I finally picked up the Harbor Freight 3pt Quick Hitch #97214 today - been looking for it for a good 6 months for the sale price of $69.99. Well, it won't work with the deluxe 3 pt lower link arms - there's too much stuff going on with the adjustable link ends to fit inside the quick hitch...

I don't mean to post in the wrong place but I have a question along with a WTB. Does the BX2763a contain the angle and the TG2754 does not or is it all in the Quick Hitch? I am looking for either or providing it has the power angle. I am in the Ohio area and am will drive 300+ miles for the...

Would the 54" blade TG2754 Blade fit the BX2753 Quick Hhitch on my BX25 without any mods?

I've got a 2620 with loader, and was installing the front quick hitch (2733) to use with the snowblower and broom. The quick hitch is the same unit that is listed for the B2410, so it's been around awhile. Well, the hitch fits the tractor, but not the loader frame. There's 2 side mounting...

Anybody using one of these? Thinking of buying one... Seem like a no brainer for switch between implements. Any drawbacks to using one. I usually keep my 2" reciever adapter on the 3 pt to move my trailers, but change to my blade and or a wood splitter often. Any thoughts?

Anybody got one? How do you like it? Is one brand better than the other?:confused: I mean, you can find some on e-bay for $100. They don't look any different than the $250 one's to me. Give me some input guys. Thanks JC

For those of you that own a quick hitch system, how much quicker can it actually be when using it with implements that run off the PTO? You have to get off the tractor to hook and unhook the shaft. I have a New Holland with telescoping arms and it doesn't seem to take long to hook up...

Anyone interested in the harbor freight quick hitch, they are on sale thru Aug. 25th. Item no. 97214 - $69.95. I got mine !

Oops, should read FORK MOD. Here is a little something I whipped up for some light hauling. I almost just bought a carryall at Coastal for $125, but came up with this using some scrap I had. I might want to add additional support with longer pins if I think I want to try and pick up some...

I mentioned this in an earlier thread, but maybe it was not seen by someone who knows more than me. I have a Bush Hog RC, and HF quick hitch. I am thinking I will need the extra HF adapter, because the top link has a bolt/bushing connecting the pivot arm that is just below the top link. I...

Looking to get an I-Match for my 2305, and I saw this at $99. Can probably get it at my local Harbor Freight store and save on shipping. Quite a difference in cost than the ($250) I-Match. Anyone used one? Think it's worth a hoot? Harbor Freight Tools - Quality Tools at the Lowest Prices

messed up and put it on the Parts and Repairs sub-forum. http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/parts-repairs/124815-my-harbor-freight-quick-release.html#post1436047 I would not be offended if it were moved to "Attachments."

I just bought one of the SpeeCo Cat 1 Quick Hitch (HF 141101, I think) and there were no instructions or booklet at all with it. Is there supposed to be one? Quick question about it for now. It looks like I will need a set of adapter bushings to permanently mount on each piece of equipment...

I just bought a 1970s vintage gravely commercial 12 to replace one that was killed by my local tractor repair place (near an outlet mall outside of boston). This one has the horn and quick hitch on the tractor end, which I've never had before. None of my implements have the implement side of...

Okay, I think I know the answer to this question but I'll ask anyway to be sure. Is there any point to having a hyd side link( to replace the manually adjustable one) if you have a quick hitch. It would seem to me that with one these hitches you would lose that adjustability factor or am I...

I am throwing this out for opinions. I need some ballast at the rear of my JD4410, but am reluctant to load the tires because of several issues: turf tracking, ease of repair, swapping b/w turfs and R1's, etc. My thought was to build a three point ballast assembly with a quick hitch...

Hi. Just installed the BX2750C snowblower on my BX24 yesterday. After figuring out that the person who assembled the BX2731 Subframe/Quick Hitch/PTO Drive set the drive shaft up incorrectly, the rest of the install went smoothly. I do have one question though... the hydraulic lines for the...

I saw a tractor with a set of forks on the three point hitch and thought it might be a good idea for my Horst forks, not trying to make it to lift capacity loads but I figured that the carry all's are fairly light duty yet they are rated at 800 pounds I think, so mine should be able to handle at...

I have the 54" quick hitch blade for my 2320. If I wanted to purchase the 47" snowblower, will it go on the same quick hitch? My quick-hitch has hydraulic angle, which I guess would need to be replaced with a non-angling part, and the hydraulic for the snowblower chute angle used instead? If...

I asked my dealer to order me a Worksaver cat 1 quick hitch and he said that he had the land pride one in stock and could make me a great deal on it. Has any one tried the LP one - any problems with it? I've only heard good things about their other stuff so I'm inclined to go with it.

Well, I finally recognized that winter is over and decided to pull the snow blade and quick hitch from my X585. Man, did they hit a home run with this setup. It took me all of 2 minutes to pull the blade and about as much time to pull the hitch. I made some wooden dollies for the two items...

I am not sure about most of you, but when it comes to changing attachments, the one I hate the most is the 3 point hitch PTO post hole digger. Every other implement that I have was either designed or modified to work with my quick hitch. So for me to switch to the post hole digger I have to...

Does anyone have a Woods SS series snowblower and able to use a quick hitch like the Speeco? The lower pins on the SS are faced inward, so I always assumed (we all know what happens) it wouldn't fit. I'm just sitting here thinking about it and can't remember the measurements on the blower pin...

Saw this set of quick hitches on ebay. Does anyone have these, and what do you think about them? Click here for link EDIT: Shortened long link

I have a B3030 with the LA403 FEL and Im wondering about the "Quick Hitch" thats available for it??? (Part number B2365..??) It "appears" ( from looking at very poor pics of it) thats its either some "different" lower "brackets"..or maybe "additional" bolt on hardware...but I cant really tell...

OK, let's see if I can describe this in a way that makes sense to those with more experience. I have an X585 with a 54" MMM for the summer and a Quick Hitch and Blade for the winter. The dealer has told me it's not a good idea to leave the MMM on all year. He has also told me that they...

Does anyone know of a company that makes 3-pt Quick Hitch Conversion Adapters? Say from Cat I to II... and also a Cat II to I? Would be nice to be able to move equipment around with either setup.

Will pats quick hitch fit a bx1500; I'm not sure I have the 4" on the bars. Has anyone with a 1500 tried Pats?

Is there some sort of quick hitch standard out there? Land Pride has a Quick Hitch that they sell and most of their 3PT implements have a Quick Hitch logo to say whether they are compatible or not. Are there others that sell a Quick Hitch of this sort. How would I figure out which implements...

well got me one and it works great. it only came with 1 set of the adapters bushings whatever they are called for the lower arms. I put these on my box blade and it worked so good I went off to get two more sets of them. God god those things are $44 a set (21 and change each) at TSC almost 1/4...

Well the tractor is back with the Quick Hitch installed. Is it necessary to pull the QH in the spring when I reinstall the mower deck, or can I leave it on. Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I'm new to this tractor stuff. Dan

I posted a while ago that I bought a Homier 3PT. Quick Hitch. Just an update. After waiting for some missing parts, I finally received them. The adapter bushings were wrong so I went to TSC. The actual adapters are $23.00 a set and are put on the implements pins with spring pin (might be the...

Was wondering if anyone purchased one could share the cost? part number 715423026. Thanks

do you guys know if the Woods RB6 rear blade will work with this hitch. My sales man says it will but after lookign i have me doubts. Already have the hitch on order. My concern is that the top link conecting point on the RB won't work, hard to describe i guess. Thanks for any feedback, really...

What are some other implements that work woth the JD quick hitch FELs? I have a 300X loader coming and was just curious what else I can attach to it. Also who are other 3rd party accessory vendors that have pieces that attach to the JD FEL??

Went to two Homier road shows the past two weeks looking for the Quick Hitch. The second show had one and after checking it out (Metal, Welds, Springs, Levers) didn't look all that bad. Box was marked $119.00 but the brochure listed it as $99.00. The box was missing the adapter yoke and the two...

Hi, Will the JD 5103's cat 2 hitch fit the John Deere cat 1 Quick Hitch? How does the tractor connect to the quick hitch? T <font color="green"> </font>

Just hit the 50 hrs and completed the required service, short of a hydralic fluid bath changing the filter and the NH gorilla that installed the engine oil filter (had to remove the dipstick tube to get a filter wrench in place) - it was a breeze. Now I am looking at getting a 3-Pt Quick Hitch...

Anybody know what the front quick hitch costs for the BX? I think the part # is BX2751 - I am thinking about getting the quick hitch and a front blade for the upcoming winter and was wondering what the cost of the quick hitch was.

Finally got around to these. Here's the finished product. Wound up attaching them to the Speedco. Spent 4 hours skidding trees today. Box location was pretty handy to stage chains. More details with 2nd picture.

This weekend I drove down to the Enfield, CT Tractor Supply Co. store to buy a 3pt Quick Hitch (I drove 3 hours from Vermont). They had none and sent me to the Barkhamsted, CT store. They said they had one but somehow the Enfield store gave him the wrong part number and sent me there for...

Began using a Woods made Frontier BB to make a fire break. The BB is designed to be quick hitch compatible, so the lift arm attaching set up uses removable hitch pins. When used without a quick hitch, there’s a lot of slop, i.e several inches lateral movement of the ball on the hitch...

My dealer came to my house this afternoon and installed my Kubota quick hitch for the FEL, the toothbar, and welded 3 hooks on the top of my bucket. It sure makes it easy to get the bucket off. What are some of the options, other than forks, that I can use on the front end?

Quick Hitch Spec.\'s...Lift force? I have a JD "Quick Hitch" front mounted hydraulic lift/hitch for my 4115, for use on my 47" Snowblower (also works with front blade and sweeper attachment, as I understand it). Has any one ever seen spec.'s on the lift force for this? I know it will pick up...

Has anyone got their quick hitch for the bucket on their B3030 yet?

<font color="green">Bought a new Rotomec 150-231 tiller today and when I got it home I discovered it will not attach to my tractor's Speeco Quick Hitch. I added Speeco adapter bushings to the lift pins on the tiller but was short 3/4 of an inch in overall width for the Quick Hitch to work. I...

I ordered my B3030 with a quick coupler BL1767 for the FEL but I read on TBN that there's another quick coupler available: B2365. My dealer didn't inform me about that second one. I'd like to have more information on this B2365. BL1767 fits a LA402 FEL... Of course, if possible and if there's...

Homiers tool show is here this weekend. I was thinking about picking up a quick three point hitch for $99. do these thing really make it that much easier to change out tools? I will most likely end up with a disc harrow for $359 at the same time. BOb

Is anyone using a quick hitch from Jiffy Hitch, Budco or Midwest Industries? They use a triangular male mount for the tractor and a permanently mounted female triangle for each implement. This eliminates all of the spacing issues. Some of the systems will work for all class categories.

Speeco quick hitch and Wood\'s implements Does anybody have any experience with using a quick hitch (speeco, homier, northern tool, ect) with Wood's implements? I've read more bad than good regarding the speeco, especially when compared to Pat's easy change system. Here's my situation. I...

What do you think of the Quick Hitch? It mounts to the tractor 3 pt. hitch and you just back up to the 3pt. hitch implement hook up and go, with the exception of something with a pto shaft, then you will need to dismount and hook the pto shaft up. With Pats Easy Change I will have to hook up...

I was told that a place called homier has quick Hitches the same as TSC for $99.00 They have different locations around. They are having a tent Sale in Bloomington, In jan 6,7,&8. I'm going to see what they have. I imagine its more China Imports. They do have a Web Site and carry quite a...

Can anyone tell me if a speeco quick hitch will work using a shredder? I can see how it would work fine on a box blade, disc, ect. Also any ideas on mounting a tool box on a 3510? Mike

Anybody know why cat-I quick-hitches are sized for cat-II pins? I know that its a simple matter to add the adapter sleeves to all the attachments, but wouldn't it be better to just have cat-I sized hooks on the quick-hitch? - Rick

Someone told me the Farm Pro (HDC Hitch) is the exact copy of the JD Imatch? Is this so or is there a difference? He is trying to sell me one and I haven't looked at it? Thanks

finally got some of my pictures scanned in and figured I would post a few. I got sick of manhandling the box blade and rear blade on and off of the 3pt so I bought a Speeco quick hitch and adapted everything over to use it. Then I made a 2" receiver adapter so I could tow my lawn roller. The...

Anyone have one of these on their Deere? The dealer i talked to swore by them....said it was the best $250 bucks you could spend. Im curious if it is compatible with other non-Deere or Frontier Implements? I think they sell bushing kits to go with the iMatch.....but has anyone used those...

I'm taking delivery of an L3130 HST this week (after several years of skulking) and I went to sign papers today and check everything out. The setup is as follows: L3130 HST w/R4's, LA723 FEL, 72" sq back bucket, Kubota 72" Front Blade (L2172A) that attaches to Quick Hitch sub-frame, Befco 3PT...

I have a Deere 2210 with the 210 loader. I woul dlike to adapt a truck snow plow to the loader. Curtis sells a Quick Hitch attachment kit for this loader. However, it seems a little pricy, $325. Does anyone know of another QH attachment kit? Alan

Tractors in the shop. 2 weeks for a 50 hour checkup. The hitch seems to be setup for cat #2 3 point.

I just got my hands on a Speeco quick hitch for my BX23 but it only came with 1 set of bushings and would like to get a couple more sets of bushings for my other attachements.

Still struggling with all the options, but little by little I'm narrowing things down, with a lot of help from the input on this forum. BTW, looking at an L3130 (I think), with the LA723 FEL. I'm not even sure what the Quick Attach is, or if it does a similar job to the Skid Steer Hitch. I...

Another newbie question: I've been reading about potential dangers of operating a backhoe if not properly installed: Safety Message What do you all think about using a BH that mounts on the FEL skid steer quick hitch like this one: FEL mounted Back Hoe I see it only has a 110° arc and 6...

I have been spending a little bit of time looking around for a quick hitch for my BX23. After looking at all the options I decided I am going to get one of the Speeco CAT1 hitches. I noticed Northern Tool carries them at a decent price but for the last few weeks their website has claimed that...

I need to use a landscape rake attached to my FEL to remove water primrose from the pond a couple times a year. I realized the hard way that you can back up too close to the bank, but if it was on the FEL you wouldn't have nearly the danger of sliding into the pond. I have a quick attach setup...

I would like to purchase a Quick Hitch to use on my Ford 8N. Will the Speedco Quick Hitch from TSC work? I need to use it with a Brush Hog, Box Blade, 16 gang Disc, Subsoiler and rear bucket.

I trailered the BX23 to the dealer to have the quickhitch and snow blower installed. After getting the tractor home, I noticed that the lefthand wedge did not fit above the tractor's frame, as it does on the righthand side. I also noticed lockwashers installed on the T-handled bolt that pulls...

I subscribe to this magazine called Farm Show. They have a lot of great ideas that are born in the shops of some very talented farmers across the country. Here is a picture and description of a quick hitc a guy built using pintle hitches. Looks pretty neat. Similar to Pat's hitch.

I know there has been a lot of talk on the forum about quick hitches and I’ve looked through the archives. I am inclined to go with the Speeco Quick Hitch, in part because I kind of chafe at the thought of having to buy a new piece every time I get a new attachment, like with the Freedom Hitch...

I bought a Speeco Quick Hitch from TSC a few months ago. I wanted a way to attach 3PH attachments to my FEL. Figured it would be an easy attachment to modify to fit my FEL. That was the easy part. Measured all the attachments that I wanted to attach before I purchased to make sure that I would...

I bought a quick hitch a while back and just realized I didn't receive the lower pin adaptors. Am I right to assume I need to use these? If so do I also have to get a set for every piece of equipment. I know I should of checked the box when I received it. Any ideas on the cheapest place to...

Last year I sold all of my 3PH Landscaping Implements including the Freedom Hitch female coupler I had on each one as well as the Freedom Hitch male coupler on my JD 955. Recently when I purchased a new LX5 Rotary Cutter I decided to get the I-Match Quick Hitch to go with it. In addition I...

I located a site that lists virtually all of the companies that offer some sort of quick hitch adaptation systems. Thought this might be of use to those searching for a such systems like I was at one time. Commercial Hitching Adaptations Resource Sheet

I'm looking to buy a quick hitch/quick attach and have been considering the Deere I-Match or the Speedco version. I've found one difference is that the Speedco had an adjustable top link while the Deere does not. Something else I learned about the Speedco is that it requires that each...

OK. I can't stand it any longer. I was hoping that Inspector 509 would break down before I did and request some status on this implement before I did, but he is obviously a stronger man that I am!!! Jim, Any update on this piece of equipment???

I just bought a KK 60" finish mower at TSC and was assured that it would work fine with my TSC(Speeco) quick hitch. When I got it home, it would not fit. It works fine without the Quick hitch. Has anyone else used this combo, and if so how did you get it to fit? Maybe I am missing something ...
