Has anyone built a 3 point hitch for a non-3pt hitch tractor? Looking for someone to share info., plan, photo etc. Have experimented with one on my 39 WC, some success, some drawbacks!?

It costs less money for a real three point made with quality welds and metal. From Hoxey Hitch or Saginaw Hitch. Both are in Michigan.

What are you going to use for a hydraulic pump? I bought a good WD for about what a pump. valve, hose, and cylinder would cost.

The lift arms look like the ends are pretty far behind the tires. Most are a lot closer. It appears that you will not be able to lift much without the front end coming off the ground. First "C" I ever saw with a wide front. The wheels are strictly "C"

MO Boy was not built with the intend of lifting anything extremely heavy. Just a good usable 3pt for an old tractor that never had one. Good for blading drive. But don't think it will ever see much work anymore, a dealer bought it from me and now it sits in his show room..Fitting place after all the years it had set outside neglected and rusting away....Thanks ..Keith

I am going ahead and adding a 3 point hitch to my C. Would like to have pics if you might have them available still. I'm adding the 3 point hitch to blade my drive and a lift to pick up a wood box with my chain saw and equipment for the woods. Nothing too heavy.

If you have pictures please email them to walkerg@gvsu.edu

Thank you.

Sincerely,

Gary Walker

W.U.H., Nope just built that one for my Allis, I am a jack of all trades Master of one. Been building things that I need at the time all my life. You should see my over head crane that I use to split tactors, since I have to do everything alone. Seems every time I need help all my friends are busy. Here is a bucket that I made for a friend's Case VAC 14 . Thanks for the kinds words...Keith

I made one for my Oliver 77, it works ok I haven't tried it with a plow but it works good with a disc, 3 point rake, etc. On a WC it shoud be easyer to make then on my Oliver. Drop me an e-mail if you want more info/picture
