Nick: I some respects I must agree with Nat. If you want 3 point then go and buy a 3 point outright. If you want 1 point fast hitch then buy that. If you want the best of both it is possible. Install a 1 point fast hitch complete, then buy 3 point lower links and a top link. When you wish to use the 3 point just drop the lower pull bar of the fast hitch. Fabricate adapters for hooking the vertical lift links of fast hitch to lower links of 3 point. Weld tabs for top link to rockshaft. Finally devise a system of hooking lower 3 point links to final drives. Personally I'd fabricate a quick attach cross member between final drives and mount the lower links to that, centered and about 18" apart. The problem with hooking lower links directly to final drives is they are too far apart at the tractor. Factory 3 point hitches pull true because lower links are aprox 18" apart at tractor and about 28" apart at the implememt. This last statment is precisely what is wrong with aftermarket 3 point hitches for Super A or like tractors. This is were I disagree with Nat, if you want a 3 point for a Super A, get yourself a rear rockshaft, buy a top link and lower links and fabricate the rest. The after market don't sell a good one.
