1 Pnt Fast Hitch Q's

Posted by Stan(VA). on December 06, 2004 at 19:39:38 from (208.59.156.206):

Hugh, (and others that have any experience with the 1 point fast hitch) how critical is tire size to the usefulness of 1 pnt fast hitch implements?

I sold a 140 earlier in the year that I need to help the new owner find some implements for and am wondering if the 12.4 x 24 rear tires are going to be a problem. I included a 1 point to 3 point conversion kit from Tractor Supply, and when we hooked up to a 3 pnt box blade, it barely touched the ground! I need to know if that is just a problem with this 3 point kit, or are we going to see the same trouble with fast hitch equip.

Secondly, does anyone have experience good or bad with the new fast hitch equipment offered by Agri Supply in VA and the Carolina's? Specifically concerned with how well they stand up to lateral stress (ie: on a box blade or disc or plow). I ask because the box blade started to tear apart that 3 pnt kit, breaking the welds where the fast hitch point joins the box frame for the 3 pnt receiver (admittedly a 7' box blade was overkill for the situation and asking for it, but hey, it was all I had at the time :) ). Now I remember why I like the two point and the Saginaw hitches so much!

Thanks,
Stan(VA).
