OK, I am convinced it is worth a try. I have all KK implements so I am hoping it should work without too much fuss. Beats having to pay $200 which I almost did a while back. I laid down till the urge passed.

Thanks for the tip. Just ordered one of these up along with 6 pairs of gloves. The iMatch from JD was going to be like 200. Hope it works out on my 2305. If not, I guess I got 6 pairs of gloves (if they fit! /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif). BTW, will this hitch require the bushings on the implements like the iMatch??? If so, were are you all getting them at. I read elsewhere that Northern Tool had them. Any thoughts?

Ordered mine a couple of weeks ago and it showed up today. Got ready to mount it and understood the problem with the hitch going over the 3pt lower arms. It looks like somewhere between a 16th and 8th inch to fit.
I'm going totake the route of notching the side of the hitch and putting a peice of place steel on the hitch to "widen" the hitch opening.
I didn't read fast enough and ordered my hitch then found the offer on the gloves. Oh well, snooze you lose... At least I'll have something to do in the heat of the day Saturday - only supposed to be 101...

Hope mine comes soon so I can get it "adapted".

Did you measure the inside of the slot for the 3 point arms to go? I wonder if this is a quality control issue and some are larger than others or if your 3 point arms are wider than some? My slots were 1 3/8" and fit just perfect with no modifications.
