Fabeats,

What is that white stuff on your tires? We use to have some stuff like that around here, we called it snow. This year though we have had none. If you wish to send some our way please do. My wife is starting to think there is something wrong with me cause alls I do is go out and talk to my tractor in the garage.

LMAO

I also have a TSC(Speeco) quick hitch and agree that it well
worth the trouble. I had to get a PTO extension ($6.00)
because one of my driveshafts was a little short. The only
implement I had trouble with was the LMC (Sovema) tiller.
The hooks would just not go in and it was tedious to back up
to the little slots. I just used a couple of 7/8 bolts and some
bushings to make an adapter. See the attachec photo.

Those hitches look worthwhile.

Bill,
Yes that is the original design of the Midwest hitch. I'll see what changes they made to it on Thursday /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Jerry,

You'll have to do the looking for the both of us. I've been under the weather with flu & bronchitis since Wednesday and don't think I can justify going down to Louisville right now. /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif

I'd love to see some pics and will look forward to hearing your opine on what you see. See what kind of a deal you can work if we order two. /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Have a safe trip and enjoy yourself. I guess I'll have to find a way to meet you another time. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Inspector507,

Can't wait to see a pic of the final design.

Looks like the one I want to buy!

This is what the hitch looks like in action. We had 4-6 inches of snow here in northeast Ohio with a good deal of drifting.

With all the snow I had to start stacking it at the end of the driveway.

Murph,
I would love to send some of this snow to you. It was fun moving it around in the beginning and I have managed to put 20 hours on my machine moving it around this year, but now it is getting a little tiresome. If you should see a dump truck backing into your driveway that you are not expecting, it could be me looking for a place to get rid of the stuff. My dad always says watch what you ask for. /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif
