Rear Finish Mower pto connection

[marcopolo]

I own a 1946 Farmall H with a front end loader attached. I recently purchased a brush hog to attach to the pto. The front end loader hydaulic is connected to the pto, but there is a female opening available on the back of the unit. My problem is that the brush hog also has a female connection (standard), so I need a 6 spline double ended (male) connector to attach the brush hog to the pto without messing with the hydraulics. Does anyone know what this piece of equipment is called, and where can I locate such a piece ?
Thanks in advance for your help.

I also have a '46 H and recently got a pull-type Bush Hog for it. No front loader, though.
I had to add a slip clutch and an over-running coupler to the PTO shaft, did a good bit of shopping around for adapters. I looked back through some of the links I saved and I'm afraid your male/male adapter is like the reverse direction over-running coupler I wanted: a fine idea no one's had yet. I did see an adapter with an extra-long shaft for pto pumps

You could cut the female end off and grind a groove or drill for a pin, but they want $135 for it. Or get two of the ten dollar extensions and weld them together. Getting a bit far-fetched here.
Do you have a three-point on your H or is the mower a trailer type? I ask because adding length to the shaft at the tractor end moves the tractor-end u-joint farther out and makes it do more of the angling.
Good luck, Wm

I'm working out a little problem with the pto on my Bush Hog, came across this at AgriSupply:
112A2221 21 SPLINE 1 3/8 SHAFT X 12 LO - Agri Supply
It looks like one of items pictured is what you're looking for but the description is of only one of the others; you might call them to see.
Good luck, Wm

yep.. get a long adapter if you need to run a hog off the end of the sahft aft of the pto pump.

I know this is an old post, and Marcopolo hasn't been active since it came up, but I was looking for something similar for a project, and happened across this thread. I found something that will work for me, so maybe others will benefit from this as well: 12 inch 6 spline 1 3/8" male-male PTO shaft.
