Front PTO / 3 point hitch installation

[sixdogs]

About 10 years ago I wanted to put a 3pt hitch on the front of a 100 HP Deere (5520) and my dealer referred me to a USA company that made them for a wide range of smaller tractors. I think down to the 30HP range.

They were kind of hard to find but had printed sales material and I had it sent to me. I tossed it in a clean-out frenzy a while back.

If this company still exists, they can't be that hard to find. I do recall this was not their primary product but just one of the items that produced. They may have produced them as a supplier to tractor manufacturers. FYI

has anyone added a Zuidberg front PTO and 3 point hitch system?

how much did it cost for labor to install?

My tractor came with it.
I was told $15,000 years ago.
Now everything is so expensive, it’s probably much more.

That's a great looking tractor, I am jealous of your setup.

last time I checked a few years ago it was about $10k for the parts and who knows how much labor is.

I have yet to find a dealer who has even heard of the Zuidberg setup lol


How high does it lift off the ground?
