RB draw pin extension

[mow4fun]

My rear blade is a CAT 0/1 and the pins on it ar about 24" reach. My quich hitch needs 27" to hook up. The pins are 5.5" and I can get 6.25" pins and with the extensions sleves that came with the quick hitch I am still about an inch short on each side.

Thinking to use washers to make up up the difference but not sure if that is the beast idea. Any thoughts on a better way or if the washers could cause the pin to bend over time since it might be over extended on one side?

I was looking at getting a quick hitch and I would have the same problem. Did you find a solution to this?

Check if the quick hitch bushings that came with the tractor have two different holes drilled out or not where you pin the bushing to the lift pins. The ones I've bought at TSC have two mounting options for a more narrow or wide install. It might get you some more room. I have also used the longest pins I could find with washers to space them out with no issues.

Here's what I did to make a tiller fit a QH



You didn't post a pic of your blade. Maybe a lift arm drawbar can be bolted to the front (3/4" bolts), or welded on. You would need to extend the top link also. More ideas here.
