Anybody ever used one or seen one? Good, bad....well made, or junk? Thinking about picking one up for my 3200 but really cant find much on it on the net.

They work well and Im pretty sure there is info burried in the Cub threads on them. Pricey yes, but they can handle a BOX blade 350- 400 lbs no problem.
Folks use it for the Hydrolic tiller and other things.
I have seen many of the setups ( I dont have the 3pt) but I have the quick hitch for the front. Overall its a well made design and solid....
Ive been digging on here and cant find anything but I will keep digging. I got the front hitch on mine with the dozer blade and the power angle and yes its a very well build piece. Guess one of my questions is since I got the 3 valves, one for the deck, one for the lift up front and one for the power angle how does the lift for the 3pt work? Does it tie into the quick connects that go up front, does it use the mower lift or is there another valve put on that controls the rear lift? The only pic I have been able to find is a parts blow up on the cub page for ordering parts.

Next to your 3rd lever
there is some cutting into the fender for the 4 lever - I think the kit provides the plastic surroundingsIm not finding the pictures anymore - they are dead links now....
Maybe someone with the 3pt can post a picture ? overall when the machine is fully loaded there are 4 levers. 2 for the front hitch (up/down and angle left/ right), 1 for mower up/down, and last one for 3pt up/down
Just a thought. If you already have the hydraulics for the front blade why not use them for the 3pt hitch. Since it is unlikely that you would be using the blade and 3pt hitch at the same time I am sure, given some re-routing of the hydraulic lines, the control used for the front blade would work for the 3pt hitch. Save you the trouble of installing another hydro control and cutting holes in your fender.

Any pictures - even from the Cub site? I have kicked this around but need to see what it entails......

When you do POST SOME PICS!!! I would love to add the functianlity this would give but need to see how it attaches, how the handles work...etc. I have the front quick hitch w/power angle and dozer blade and love it....
Since you already have the Front Hitch with Power Angle, you will also need 759-3971 service kit for the fourth handle. You will have to cut a hole in the fender and drill some holes in the frame to mount it.
As far as what one looks like. This is a 190-365 hitch; yours will be a 190-207.
And this is what you can do with it!

Peavs, how do you like it? Is it worth the $900, would you do it again? My dealer is not real keen on putting one on mine because of the mods to the fender and frame and the addition of the 4th valve. Do you use any other implemets on the back other than the tiller? Just curious before I drop that amount of $$.
Thanks

Fortunatly, I found mine on eBay for alot less than MSRP. I also got the tiller (never used) for a whole lot less
than MSRP off of eBay. I don't know if I would have bought both otherwise. It took almost a year (after I got the tiller) for a 3 point to pop-up (and then 3 became available in about three months). If the dealer is not going to install it, then I would try to knock the price down. I think that dealer cost is around $600 - $700 for the kit. Installation is no more difficult than the front hitch except for cutting the fender. Thats not too hard if you take your time and have a Dremel. I would like to find a good (cheap, because I'm cheap) box blade and/or back scraper blade to play with, but have not found one yet.

Hey, sorry for bringing an oldie back to the top...
...but any of you have some good tips for someone looking to pick up the 365 3 point hitch kit?
Not sure exactly how I'll tie in the 4th valve... probably need a custom line to go to the other side of frame...
any more good photos out there of this setup?
Thanks!
