Anyone have experiences (good or bad) with their 3-point quick hitch? I'm considering getting one (Speeco) for my L3940.

I have a speeco, works just fine for me. I have been using it for the past 7 yrs. of service. Still works like new.

I have a Speeco bought from Tractor Supply and a brand bought from Northern Tools. Basically the same device except the NT one was way less expensive. Both work great. I can typically change out implements in just a few minutes with no strain or sweat. A real time saver.

I was looking at the NT version yesterday. Is there a concern for fit as the NT description states: "24in. distance from bottom hooks to top hook"
I measured my back blade and the top to bottom pins was 18.5 inches.
Is there enough adjustment for this to work? My back blade is the land pride RB1560 and states: "Cat. 1 (Fits Land Pride Quick-Hitch)"

Will the NT version work?

I think the NT 24 inch dimension is an overall dimension (bottom of bottom hook to top of top hook). It claims to be ASAE compliant which would mean 18 inch center to center vertical separation of the pins. Of course, the top hook is adjustable on the NT.
