COMBINATION CAT0,CAT1 Pins--Available?

npalen · Mar 16, 2013

Wondering if anyone makes/sells a combination pin/stud for the lower links that is 5/8" diameter on one end and 7/8" on the other end. This would be to allow the same implement to be used on both CAT0 and CAT1 tractors. I would envision the double ended pin would have a 3/4" or 7/8" thread in the middle area and be mounted with a hexnut to a single lug. The CAT0 ends of the two pins would, of course, face to the inside. There is the issue of the slight difference in top pin diameters (5/8" & 3/4") but that is not a showstopper in many cases.

You could use a cat 0 pins and bushings for cat 1.

There are cat 0 lift arm pins with a 7/8" thread on it.

The cat 0 xcat1 pins are available as you describe I think I have a set off one of the smaller implements. I use the IMatch on everyting from lawn tractor to large compact, much easier to deal with imo.

Agri Supply has these, but doesn't say if the other side is cat 0.

Implement Mounting Pin-Cat 1 W/Shoulderws

I have an old 4" Brinly boxblade that has a unique combination pin, with separate top pin holes.
