Sorry I was thinking of the smallest in the 4000 series the 4010 not the 4110. The 4010 is still a two piece frame etc like the 2210. Either way they should all be fine if it fits the limited 1 on the 2210. Dave

Ducati, check the parts catalogs and the size of the lift
links on a 4110 vs. a 4100......they are different. They made
the lift links larger. The threaded portion has larger circumferance by at least an 1/8", maybe even 1/4". I appreciate the help and it makes sense that if it works on a 2210, it will work on a 4100.
Next time you go to a dealer bring some calipers ;-)

It makes you want to bang your head on the hitch dont it. Why in the world they dont just make all this stuff the same size is still a puzzle to me. Dave

Is the imatch similar to the Freedom Hitch or other after market varieties of that ilk, or is it better/cheaper/faster? Have you used it for long and have you found it to be a pretty rugged unit? Also, is it a bolt-on male and female adapter, or does it hitch directly onto JD implements? TIA

As far as I know its the same but I have never ever heard of that brand before. I have heard one something like simco ?? and then there is the tractor supply one. I'm sure the fittings are pretty much the same on all of them. The only difference is that JD makes what they call iMatch bushings to go on the implement and they are about $10 each. I just use a category 0 inside a category 1 bushing to get the same diameter. They are less than a buck a piece. The JD one is a little better fit and finish not that that really means much. the others are a different color but thats nothing that a $10 of spray paint wont cure. Its VERY rugged, I mean its really a hefty piece of steel. If you drop it on your toes you will know it. It bolts to the 3 pth and then its got levers, one on each side you just flip those up, back up to your implement, lineing up the three pins and you lift your hitch untill it engages. Then you drop the levers which lock it in place. You can change non pto implements in seconds and a PTO implent as fast as you can slip the hitch on. I cant imagine not haveing one. I primarily bought one because my property is three hours from home out in the Boondox /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif So you can bet if I need a tool or a 10 cent part its the one thing I wont have. This saves soooo much time which is really valuable. I say that because its not uncommon for me to get on on a saturday, like I will tomorrow, at 4 am, drive 4.5 hours, work in the woods for five or six hours, then drive home. I did not want to be spending 20 minutes changeing implements. No more kicking the tractor or curseing the hitch, bloody knuckles etc. Dave

garchib ,
Your probably right on difference of thickness of links.
Not sure why there is because Hydrolics are the same ( same lift limit). And the 4100 will handle the imatch as well....
I will see them up close soon, and get back to you, but you are probably correct on this matter...
Nuru,
I'm 100 % sure on the 4110 fitting the 4100 series. If for example you got the backhoe attachment (46BH) you need a foldable ROPS and it is the 4110 ROPS...price is under $400

Ok guys, now that you have sold me on the iMatch for my 4100....
is there a list of the JD attachments that work with it ? The reason
I ask is that I have a JD 261 RMM and I cannot find anywhere where
it states that this mower is "iMatch compatible". My goal is to be
able to switch between the ballast box and the RMM quickly, via
iMatch, but if this mower is not iMatch compatible it defeats
the purpose of me buying the iMatch hitch....
Thanks to all, G

Now you got me...I dont know. I know it comes down to some of the implements not being I-Match...you might want to touch base with a dealer in your area and double check..
Let us know what you find out...

Look your implement up on the frontier web site. If its compatable it will say so in the description. If not I bought a 3 pt rear hitch receivor that is imatch compatable from a place called Bad River products. The guy was super friendly and assured me that They had a adapter comeing out soon that would make any non imatch implement iMatch compatable. Dave
