I was wondering what the difference was between the 800 and 801 hitch. Is it easy to modify them to fit todays 3 pt. hitch implements?

Now to the second part of your question. I have a 60 with an 800 hitch. The hitch has two top links which have to "come together" in a third member at the implement end. The original third member on mine would not connect to modern implements. I replaced it with a piece of 2" square tubing with a lift arm end welded to its center. The end then engages the top link hole of the implement. This arrangement works pretty good.

The 800 hitch was clearly an improvised answer by JD for a 3-point method of attaching implements. There was no good place on the rear of the tractor to anchor a single, centered, top link--hence the double version, which,awkwardly, attach to the rear axle housing. It is a lot of trouble to adjust. Later on, with the 20 Series tractors, JD moved the hydraulic control box out of the way for a single top link.

the 800 does not have the adjustable arm lever. You adjust the rods.

You can make a top link adapter from a 3-point drawbar...mine fits everything I have, that is 3-point... I think the difference is at the mounts for the top links, where they mount on the axle housings... That is about all I can help U with... I want to up-date mine..... I here that U don't need to have a landside gage wheel on the plow, with the latter version... Ron.
