Is Delta Hook still in business?

[ace10]

Been on the fence about a QH system for a few years. Had a quote from Delta Hook from a while back. Spendy for sure, but I can't wrestle with these implements any longer.

Went to their website and it's not loading. Hasn't been for a couple of weeks. Wondering if they're still in business.

As an alternative, I got a quote from Jiffy Hitch. I think it was even more costly than Delta, and to me it doesn't look like as good of a system.

Anybody done any business or had any contact with Delta recently?

Thanks in advance.

I do not know what tractor you have but buy a common quick hitch ? And you are probably going to modify implements .

I have Cat 2 implements. My tractor is 99hp.
I want a system where I can grab and go. More or less.

JD and others make Cat 2 and 3 quick hitches.

I'm very pleased with Pat's Easy Change. Yes, you have to get off to hook up the toplink but, if using something with at PTO, you have to get off to hook that up, anyway.

Also don't have to remove the Pat's to use my post hole auger.

Used to be I would have to schedule time to change implements. Not even a concern now.

The JD quick is stout, but totally inflexible. My neighbor has a Cat 1 and I swear the effort he expends wrestling that thing on and off for incompatible attachments isn't worth it. It would only be worse with Cat 2.

I just don't find the utility in the those types of hookups, for my usage. You still gotta mess with the width of the lift arms. And got the top hooked up.

I want to minimize the misery of being in between tractor and attachment.

The very best I've seen (and unaffordable, at least for me) it even has auto PTO and hydraulic quick connect, only system I've seen with those two features (Gangl Master+)

I'll have one, maybe, someday on the Unimog

As was mentioned earlier, the attachments might all need to be modified to be QH compatible. But once they are, life is easy. If the Delta system is still available, As you probably already know, you will be looking at BIG BUCKS to get all the cat 2 pieces that you may need.

Good luck and I hope that you end up with something that you are happy with. :thumbsup:
