Best Fast Hitch Conversion Setup

Formerly PaMike · Jun 5, 2014

We have an IH 350U with fast hitch. Years ago dad made a homemade setup. Its ok, but I would like something a little better. Does anyone make the conversion tongs that have a quick hitch style hookup instead on the balls? Its a real pain to put the tongs on the bushhog then try to back into them.

You're hooking up 'wrong.Its easy.As easy as a telescopic 3point arm.Install prongs into sockets.Back up around 10" from implement.Pull out prong from socket,slide the ball onto the pin. Back up to 'set' the catches.You may need to try it a few times at first to get the right space.Too close,the prong wont spread enough to hook.Too far,the prong comes out before it gets hooked.

Do you have the bent or straight style? My homemade set is straight, so I assume bent wouldn't benefit me.??

Just like Delta Red says. That is how I do it.

I have the bent ones and it works like a charm and lets me lift higher too.

The ones thAT are bent UP have a bit more side slop and are a bit easier to hook up.The ones that are bent out for Categary 2 Equipment,not much difference .

OK, CAT 1 would be the equipment that is 32" between pins?
