Excellent tutorial Dieselmh!

And LD1 takes it to a whole new level. Great ideas here.

Copied a great idea. Thanks! I do not have Pat's easy change, however. Somehow I found carterandsonsllc.com and these work for me. Swapped out the 1/2" pins for the pins that stay in place with the little detent ball.

Looks good. And not hard to make either:thumbsup:

Since I was bored and had the time though, I made mine a little fancier in case anyone wants a different idea, heres a pic

LD1,
Did you use one inch round tubing to make these I assume?

And BTW everyone,
Whoever it was that came to my place in Vermont and stole all my lynch pin clips and top link pins over the winter,
I hope they smash your finger every time you use them!

I really dont remember now it was so long ago. And dont have them anymore because I upgraded tractors and quick hitch.

Since the pins are 7/8" diameter, I doubt I went with pipe. I probably used 1-1/4" or 1-1/8" roundstock and drilled it out to 7/8" ID on the lathe If I had to wager a guess.
