Hi . I've got a three point McConnell Power Arm. I have it mounted on my 641 with a loader.Trouble is it moves around a bunch while transporting. Can I put stabilizer bars on the lower links to stop this, or will it twist em up like pretzels once I actually start digging?

Any Ideas on how to replace worn Pins and the bushings they run through? Is it a case of get a lathe and make them, or can they be bought commercially and welded in place?

Any thoughts on these three point machines? I still think I am gonna be lookin fer a real hoe soon. Hard to beleive it doesn't seem any better at digging than the Mini Kubota hoe I rented a while back.I live where we grow rocks as a cash crop. We don't even have to plant em!.

In my experience the 3-pt is not rigid enuff for the connection required of a backhoe. Alot of these light-duty hoes have subframes that attach rigidly to the tractor--I would recommend fabricating something like that. My backhoe on my '40 9N bolts on under the axle housing and then wraps around the housing with large u-bolts; this seems to work fairly well.

As far as pins and bushings go, standard sizes are available from any industrial supply, i.e. McMaster-Carr. Making these yourself would be way too much work. Bushings should be pressed into a bore--old ones can be pressed out and replaced by new.
