Where's a good place to get a 3-pt hitch for a Farmall M? What should I be looking for in the way of adjustments, and what should be the extension possible from the cylinder? If I'm going to use the hitch for a 6-foot bushhog and/or a small disk do I need two cylinders or is one as good? Category I or II? (If anyone near Maryland has a used hitch they want to sell please let me know.)
Thanks!

Ive made a few homemade 3 points. The one on my H right now will pick up a 500# 5 foot brush hog no prob. And one cylender is all you need. Hydraulics arnt all that good anyway on H and Ms.
I can make a single cylender for bout $400. Its all you need.

Ron, I have a 3-point conversion hitch on my Super H. I only use one cylinder and I can easily lift the front wheels off the ground. I have a 3-point 8' tandom disk and it has no problem lifting it. I also use if for a Woods mower and a 2 bottom Cockshut plow. Works good on all those. Roger

ron,
siganaws hitch is good but I bought 2 from Jones Salvage ( I can find the web site if you are interested ). About the same mones as siganaws but depending on where you are the fraight may make a difference. Jones is also a good sourse for used parts and information( always willing to help, ask for Jim )

They have the best hitch and the best price. Comes with two cylinders, top link, float capability, Cat 1/2 arms, and it allows you to keep the factory drawbar as well (at no extra charge).

If you want to make a trip to VA you can see a couple of them in action (no, none of them are for sale).

If what your going to use it for is to bush-hog ,then forget about a three point hitch and get a pull type bush-hog and use your drawbar.I have both and wouldn't give one pull type bush-hog for all the lift type. If you have a lift type ,sell it or trade it for a pull type and forget about a three point hitch.Just sold my three point hitch for $100 dollars.Save your money and invest in a pull type bush-hog.

www.worksaver.com - they suggest single cylnders for what your talking about. You can always add a second. I believe their equipment comes with cat 1/2 arms already. Top link is the variable, that is what I got with my FH to three point conversion. Good equipment!!!!
