My Speedco quick hitch will fit all my implements but the chisel plow. If I could find a floating link similar to the one on my bushhog I would be in great shape. I thought about going to the Bushhog dealer and getting one but there's is much wider than the one I need. After scouring the web I still can't locate what I need. Anyone have any suggestions on where to look? Thanks!

LandPride part # 320-013A, floating top link assembly for their Cat 1 Quick Hitch will probably fix you right up. See page 11

Worked for me on a Homier QH. Cost $50 bucks, and I only used one component of the assembly - but it was money well spent.

The width on the bushing looks too wide to fit the chisel plow. Hmmm, don't know what I am going to do. Just my luck that the quick hitch fits all but one of my implements and it happens to be the one I use the most. Thanks though for the help partner.

Since there are only 5 part numbers to the assembly, I'm going to assume you're referring to spacer (item 5). The last number is the length; 1.94 inches.

My tool inventory doesn't include a bushing stretcher - but I've found that a hacksaw and a grinder do a fair job of making one shorter.

To be fair, I also bought the bracket in that diagram that's labeled (part of machine). It came with a Cat 1 bushing that fit into the top hook of the QH. Bottom holes of the bracket get pinned to the implement, QH grabs the bushing that's pinned through the top holes. Maybe THAT's the one that could help you out.

If you can't find one ready made, there are any number of us with fab shops either here or locally to you that can fab one for you from a small sketch.

HA!HA! Boy you can tell my skill level is about zero. I should have thought about that! Somtime the simplest solutions are the hardest to come up.

I spent more time last night looking at that dang thing. I refuse to let it whoop me, so I will explore some more.

Thanks for all the help guys!!
