Mitch, Ive had several A's or B's, 60's or 70's etc over the years with after market 3 pt hitches and yes, you ought to be able to hook up to most any standard 3 pt attachments. The one variable Ive noticed with diferent brand hitches is how and where the top link attachment mounts, and Ive seen that cause some problems concerning the length of the top link you use and Ive noticed some differences in the lenght of the PTO shaft on some equipment which didnt fit quite just right. Still, I think Ive always been able to hook up and use most equipment, with only minor modifications, if any. There can be different ways of accomplishing "anti sway" (side to side play) on different hitches, from chains to stiff arms etc, but thats important in some equipment to keep it stable. The lift wont be "live" and theres no draft control like on the 20 series true 3 pt hitches, but for just lifting in general, you can get by fine. Good luck n God Bless John T

On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
