Exacly my thought Z5, I will try to drill ...

I have looked all over for a set of shorter pins for mine and I can't find any shorter that 4 1/4 like you got. I think they will be some hard drilling. I have a spare set of 4 1/4 x7/8 pins I may use until I can find something else.

Here is a 3.5" but a swivel mechanism, not a pin...

I wonder if the Land Pride QH-15 QH Comes w/ nice lower pins?
I guess I need to dig up a parts list, anyone have a parts list for
a Land Pride QH-15 QH?

Mitch I guess I wasn't clear. The KK Blade where I made those metal
bushings? Well those "Extend" the lower implement draw pins by about
2" each, w/o them the QH bottom hooks do not reach the Implement.
So they extend and bring up to size. I am not done w/ them and
I have not elaborated on them on purpose. I should get the
.5" x 1.5" roll pins I want for them today I would think. After
I do there will be a better explaination, but to answer your question
yes I have seen those and I am not thrilled about them, I have
seen them in all flavors/sizes I should say.

I ran into an interesting QH Top QC that has promise HERE.
Here is a pic of it;

That would stop the top from wanting to jump "almost" out.
I am not done thinking about that yet.

I also found a 7/8" x 3.5" plain pin but below it on the same
page there are some stop collars...HERE. (I am not sold on
that issue yet either. )

I'll bet the John Deere QH has some nice lower pins. Not sure how you would find it on JDparts.com

The pictured part is for a top link, implement end. It requires a ball on the implement top pin. Were you thinking of mounting it to the top of your QH and hinging it to drop down and hook up the top implement pin? Seems that would turn your QH into a SH (slow hitch)

Looking nice Artisan. I used the pins that are second from the top right in the link when I built my grapple. They were easy to cut to length and drill. I do not think these pins are hardened. My guess is they prefer them to bend instead of snap off, but that is just my not knowing guess. Keep up the great work.
