I recently purchased a LAND PRIDE - RCF 2060 Rotary Cutter ($1,600) to pull behind my Kubota L3560.

Land Pride supplied CHEAP Draw Pins are too short to get a boot on, and ROLL PINS for finger grips?

How many customers buying a RCF 2060 will retain the cheap Draw Pins? Approximately zero, I should guess.
WHY SUPPLY INADEQUATE DRAW PINS FROM THE FACTORY ??????

Photo #3 shows ample/generous/over-spec Draw Pins supplied with HOWSE Disc Harrows.

LAND PRIDE: There is no such thing as PARTIAL excellence.

This is my first implement from LAND PRIDE.

Them are pretty cheap pins. I bought a Land Pride rear blade last fall and it is very well built and has very nice cat 1 & cat 2 combo pins. Maybe somebody swapped pins on the dealer lot?

According to the Kubota mechanic, who unloads the trucks, that is the way Land Pride RCF 2060s arrive.

Those look like the same too-dang-short-pins that come on LP's landplanes.

If the pin fits the hole and fits the hitch and carries the load, it doesn't seem like a big issue to me....unless I don't understand something here....:2cents:
