Carry All Choices

[Glowplug]

I would like to find a basic 3-pt hitch carry-all frame like the one they sell at Tractor Supply but for a Cat II hitch. Does anyone know of such an item?

It looks as though you may be able to simply unscrew the pins and replace them with Cat. II pins. Another option would be to use sleve adaptors made for putting Cat. I implements onto Cat. II hitch.

I use the TSC carry all with cat 2 pins and welded on reinforcing plate around the pin location which is the weakest point I found out

Given the lift capacity of your machine, you might want to consider the King Kutter Pallet mover. It has a rated lift capacity of 2000lbs as apposed to 1000lbs for the regular carry all they sell. Here is the link.King Kutter Incorporated

If you weld, you can probably build what you want, as srong as you want with very little $ outlay. Looks like the whole thing is made from angle.

If you do weld something up, you might consider the little triangular reinforcement shown on the Leinbach carry all shown in the top left corner of this page:

It adds a lot of strength.

Try a King Kutter bale mover and modify the platform. It is cat 1 & 2 from the factory.

I really like that idea. That looks to be very promising. Thanks.

I have a similar unit. I drilled some holes into it and bolted down some 2 x 6 pressure treated to make a platform and a back on it, then I bolted this NorthStar PTO Generator — 7200 Watt, 14 HP Required |PTO Generators | Northern Tool + Equipment to it.

The Northstar is easy to take off and put on. Nice to have some current and a small compressor to move around with when the tractor is in the field. When the generator is off, I can get a lotta stuff on that carry all.

If not, I'll hook up my dump wagon ...

If your frame is like the KK discussed (see image), then I don't understand how the Genny PTO shaft runs ...

I have a Priefert 3ph hay fork and use it as the frame for my carryall. Then, welded a platform that slides over the two forks and has expanded metal platform floor with angle iron supports around the side. I've made 3 different platforms... one for general use carrying rear weight, buckets, tool box, chains, etc. Another for 55 gallon spray rig. Third..well, spare until I come up with a need.

In my case, I already had the hay fork for lifting round bales and it made sense to put it to double use. When doing a max lift with FEL, I find it critical to add about 500 lbs to the rear carry all to keep rear wheels on the ground.

The carry all is THE most used attachment I have. It goes with me everywhere.

I bought a KK carry all, put some CCA board for floor and back. Best implement investment I made since I do not have fel
