Years ago I thought I saw somewhere that sold 3 point brackets that you could weld onto whatever. If my memory serves me right it was just a 4" x 1/2" strap that was pre bent and had the holes in the right spots for the pins. I know these would not be hard to make but I have got some bigger toolbar implements I am going to cut down and make smaller implements and I was thinking this would be an easy route and would ensure my dimensions were correct so quick hitches would work. Problem is I can't seem to find them anywhere.

I've seen tractor side parts like these: Content Page and Content Page

But never pre-made universal implement side parts (other than the pins themselves).

They looked similar to what Fred posted minus the ball mount of course. I don't remember the price but at the time I thought they were cheaper than they could be built for. For $100 I would just make my own.

That is what I did on all my either home made implements or the revamped implements , Was just build my own . Steel dealer I go to here , has both new steel and old stock / recycled steel , thus if I can't find it in the old steel racks , I can get it new . Last time I bought steel , old was like $ .60 a pound , so I could over build with some pretty heavy duty steel and still come out $$$ ahead as opposed to buying a ready made pre-bent hitch .

If you have a few to make, it may be worth buying a shop press and bender. The HF press and SWAG bender will do that width 1/2" flat bar no problem. Probably run about $25 a piece in materials.

BigTyme : Says it fits all Cat 1 tractors but has it seems with all the quick hitches and different makers of implements , there seems to be no standard on pin width thus in answer to your question ???

Thanks Fred, I guess it wouldn't be to much work to make it fit for the price.
