LandPride Quick Hitch: QH10 or QH15?

[Featherbrained farms]

Hi everyone, looking for quick turnaround advice on whether to get the LandPride QH10 or QH15 quitck hitch. I'm looking to get a quick hitch for my L2501, and in Canada, options are not as great as in the US and price difference between "economy brands" and big brands are not that big. Most of my attachments are LP or Kubota and I'm no welder / tinkerer, so "out of the box" sounds great. The way I look at it, both Quick Hitches have same specs, but the QH10 has non-standard lower pins holders which mean no need for bushings, whereas the QH15 has the adjustable top link hook. My growing collection of implements / attachments includes:
- Disc Bedder (made by a friend)
- 3 pt fork
- B5320 ballast box
- RCR1260 rotary
- DH1048 discs
- A potato plow / middle buster
- In the future, I see a snowblower - prob Kubota

Thoughts or suggestions? The dealer is waiting for my input before ordering in either QH.
Thanks everyione.

I got the qh-15, I only have a box blade BB1260, and had to use the bushings.

I would go with the qh-10. No need for bushings.

I would get the one with the adjustable top hook. You may not need it today but who knows whats going to happen in the future, besides, bushings are cheap.

I have had an adjustable hook for several years and used it just once while the tractor was away from home. It saved a lot of time for me that day.

I would want the adjustable top hook. I have to move mine for each implement. I use the quick release pin set from Ken's Bolt On Hooks website:

Ken's Bolt on Grab Hooks <<Quick Hitch Accessories>>

Those save me a bunch of time.

I also have the QH-15. Options are always better than no options for me even if I have to buy some bushings depending on the attachment. About as soon as I wouldn't have got the adjustable top link I would have needed it. It's easier to pay for a couple of bushings than start to modify complete implements.

Is both the QH10 and QH15 CAT 1?

QH10 and 15 are both cat 1.View attachment LPQH.pdf

If both QH's are CAT 1, I would go with one that has most adjustability because most implements are all over the place in size as most are not made for quick hitches or before quick hit came on the scene...

QH10 and 15 are both cat 1.View attachment 609851

That document is a little vague, it really does not state clearly that that 10 and 15 are Cat 1 and the 20 is Cat 2 and the 30 is Cat 3... Or so it would seem.... I guess that is what we get for documents written by engineers.... All it really talks about is the pins....
