What is this 3pt attachment?

Finding out some of your PTO shafts are too short to use with the QH

You can use an extension for that. Run one on my brush cutter.

You do have to be mindful of the driveshaft to hitch clearance. Let the 3pt down too far and shaft will rub in the hitch.

To the OP's question.....in a perfect world, this attachment allows the tractor to quickly hook onto a implement just by lifting onto the 3 pins. No more getting off the tractor, lining up the arms, installing pins, and installing clips. In a perfect world..........

I got a new tractor in October with the quick attach on the loader. Bucket, grapple, hay fork. No more trying to line up four holes to beat the pins in. I just have never seen it on 3pt. A few years ago I remember reading about Pat’s quick hitch but have heard nothing about it since. On my new Mahindra there is an attachment on the two lift arms that allow it to slide out a little further making it easier to hook up to 3pt implements.

I purchased my 3032E with the JD I-Match at the dealers recommendation. I cant imagine not having it. I can be hooked up and gone in a couple of minutes.

I too have the slide out lower lifting arms. I only had a box blade, now I have a tiller and a scraper. I'm wondering how much trouble I'm going to have switching. before my back surgery Ihad a smaller tractor with smaller implements.

Loader quick attach is different concept from 3 point quick hitch. I don't know how many of us have 3 point quick hitches, but it's a lot.

I looked at one but only one attacment would fit and don't want to modify everything else.

My 3pth arms are too short, and I've been trying to decide whether I should buy one of those or simply replace the arms. The real irony though is that one reason I replaced my L275 was because those same arms were pretty much worn out.

Just keep in mind if you add the quick attach 3 PT you also have to have the implement set up also with the correct attachment pins. So it's not just buy the quick hitch, a little more to it than that.
