So, buy a quick hitch to use with "quick hitch" labeled implements, but modify them? lol.. no thanks bro.

You have to do a bit of research to make sure the implement actually fits YOUR QH. Anything I buy new fits mine. I had to modify several of my old ones to fit my CAT II QH but I can tell you this, once you get them all to fit you just can't beat a QH. Especially if you have a hydraulic toplink.

From what I have noticed,,,
different attachments are designed to be used with different Quick Hitch's
So, probably you need a JD Quick Hitch,, also a HF Quick Hitch, and at least one other manufacturers QH,,

THEN, you simply install the QH that matches THAT attachment,,
after using that attachment, switch to the next QH to sync to the NEXT attachment,,

It does not work that way..... The QH is a "standard" and QH that does not conform to standard is the problem..... Having several QH's just complicates the issues, modify the implement "once" to match the standard and move on.... Its easier to modify implement once than having to change out QH ... Have to change QH defeats purpose of QH.... Depending on tractor size you should only need ONE QH in category 1 or 2 or 3 that fits your tractor/implement size....

I was just joking about multiple quick hitches,,
BUT,,
I have two quick hitches right now,, and they are RADICALLY different.

I know there is a third, the one that does not need lower link adapters.

The one thing that is different on my two are the hook thickness
One is 1" thick, the other is ~1.25" thick those hooks can not interchange.

I have the aftermarket extended hook for my older one,,
that hook will not fit my recently acquired quick hitch,,

Standards, or not,, there are exceptions,,
