Has anyone installed a Pat's quick change on the 3 point system for a GC17xx with a backhoe? If so, does it fit under the frame when you fold it up to reinstall the backhoe?

Mounting my chipper/shredder is a pain in the butt and I'm thinking this would make my life a lot easier. Thanks!

Took a close look last night at my arms. I think the ends will fit, just a little nervous on where they would hit my legs when I am running the hoe. Sitting in the seat I think you would notice them. Whether that bothers you or not I can稚 say.

I'm picking up a cheap cat 1 quick hitch I found locally later today, so I'll give that a try first. If that doesn't work out I'll try the Pat's solution.
