I recently bought an Allis-Chalmers B and would like to get a 3-pt hitch setup for it. I was told, however, that the aftermarket setups won't handle implements such as a post hole digger. Is there any truth to this? I'd like to be able to use any 3-point equipment, but if the aftermarket hitches can't handle the implements, there is no point in getting one. Please reply with your thoughts.

I speak from experience. Post hole diggers are hard on pto's, regardless of tractor brand. Especially in soil with rocks and/or roots. Don't do this to your B. Go rent a hydraulically-driven unit from a rental company!

I have a worksave on my 45 b. I don't know about a posthole digger, don't have one. It handles 500lbs on a carry all, but you'll need weight on the front of the tractor. I also have a scoop, 6ft back blade and a boom pole. A 3pt makes the b a very useful tractor.

I have reciently bulit my own 3 point hitch for my b. lifting is not going to be a problem for you. my B will lift the front of the tractor at about 400 lb. I think you might want to be sure that the pto will handle the post hole digger without stalling out.

A City Guy's First Tractor - by Fred Hambrecht. After living in apartments in Atlanta for more years than I care to remember, the wife and I decided to move to the country. Humming "Green Acres is the place for me..." we purchased a 29 acre tract about 60 miles south of Atlanta. Next came the house, I could talk about that ordeal for another two weeks... But, I want to talk about my tractor! We didn't even own a lawnmower, and all of a sudden we had enough grass to feed all the starving children of the bovine world. Naturally, I talked
