I have a Massey gc1710 and was wondering what everyone was using for a quick hitch. Also I was looking at Pats easy hitch and was wondering if they fit when you put the backhoe on. Thanks

Kevin, I noticed no-one had replied to this. Did you mean to limit the question to the Massey forum, or the GC1720? If not, an internal search on TBN for "quick hitch" will bring up numerous threads on the subject. Here's a recent one on the Harbor Freight model for cat 1: http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/attachments/312766-harbor-freight-quick-hitch-issues.html

I am wondering on the backhoe models of the Masseys if anyone has used Pats easy hitch and if there is enough room for them to stow when the backhoe is put back on.

I have a GC1720 and use the Pat's Easy Change system. I am able to stow them while using the backhoe, although it is a tight fit.

When you installed Pats easy change was it a simple bolt on with no problems? Did you need a longer top link, and would you do this upgrade again? Thanks Kevin
