LA302 Quick Hitch forks

[JohnDeere4300]

That does help! Looks like you have had a few heavy loads on them! :laughing: Looks like the top link pin is bent down and the left pin is bent up! I will have to do some checking to see if I can make them universal front and rear mount. Thanks.

The flat-bar metal welded to the guard was already bent that way!... I had a pile of scrap metal and that's the best I could find!

Now the left lower pin is bent up, Because that's the way it turned out when I welded it!:laughing:... It was hard to back up to the forks and measure to figure out where I needed the pins.... I also had to adjust my 3PT Hitch so it would be level.

I made the lower pins... I used a piece of 3/4" round-bar, bored out a hole through the 1/2" flat-bar, and welded the round-bar on the backside... Then I slid a piece of pipe ''over'' the round-bar, and filled the end up with weld!... They fit better in the HF Quick Hitch with the pipe.

I didn't have a sharp 3/4" drill bit at the time, So I had to cut out the hole with Oxy'/Acet', and the holes was a little large!... Try holding the round-bar in a loose hole so it can be welded!!!:laughing:

Oh, And yes I have had some heavy loads on the Forks!!
