Has anyone converted a motor hitch to a 3pt? This motor hitch is hydraulic. I've attached a photo to help. You can see the cylinder on the left that lifts the hitch. Any thoughts?

I couldn't open the picture, but I think I know what you've got. You probably have the setup that has a fixed-width two-arm hitch that is raised and lowered by the hydraulic cylinder. I looked around for an aftermarket three point hitch adapter from the short-line companies, but had absolutely no luck.

So, right now, I'm in the process of retro-fitting my SC to a three point. We figured out how to do the link arms, and probably have a really good way to do the top link. Right now I'm trying to figure out how to do the anti-sway mechanism. A lot of the Cat 1 three points that I've seen simply use a couple chains, but that's too crude for my blood!

I hope to be finishing it up over the next couple weesk or so. What I like about what we've done so far is that nothing on the tractor needs to be modified - the three point stuff will pick up existing bolts for mounting the link arms and the top link.

Email me if you want any more info. I'll try to post the results of the finished product, that is, providing it works well!
