Sounds OK I think the adapter might cause binding due to the fact that the FH was two parallel sockets pivoted in front such that they were not independant. Hooking onr to one 3PT arm, and the other to the other will pivot them from two points at the fromt of the tractor pull point. The effect will be (I am afraid) that the implement will not have side to side freedom due to this triangulation. Even if the two "sockets" were fastened together they would not pivot correctly. Complex geometry. Putting a set of FH sockets with locking flippers on an implements prongs, welding a member between them and up for the top link, then making an appropriate set of 3PT pins to stick out of them to hook the 3PT arms on might be the ticket. Installing a bracket on the top front of this adapter to accept the top link would do it. JimN
