I picked up a Kasco Switch-Hitch a while back. I already talked about it in <A target="_blank" HREF=http://www.tractorbynet.com/cgi-bin/compact/showflat.pl?Cat=&Board=implement&Number=145669&page=&view=&sb=&o=&vc=1>this</A> thread.
I finally got a chance to use it with my rear blade and I thought I would share some photos. I had 67 tons of crushed concrete (recycled) trucked in. The first 3 truckloads I moved with my bucket on the FEL and the rear blade on the 3-point.
The next day I had the other 3 truckloads delivered and I remembered about the Switch-Hitch. So I went and put it on and then mounted my 6-foot rear blade to it. What a difference this made. It was so much easier being able to do most of the work facing forwards. The amount of reach made a huge difference as well. Having the blade that far away from the tractor was a lot better than having it right behind the rear tires.
I won't bore you with any more talk I will just post a few pics.
