Tractor Supply\'s quick hitchs

I have desided that my wife will buy me one for Christmas (She does not know this yet but that is another story)
Are they good quality or should I look somewhere else for one?

Had one, returned it. If the pins were all in the same position on all your implements, they would be great. However they are not and the attachment is not great. Pat's Easy Change would be a better investment.

Do they sell those at Tractor Supply are at orther farm/tractor supply stores or is it mail order only?
I am the kind of person that likes to feel before I buy

Re: Tractor Supply\'s quick hitchs

Contrary to the previous comment, I have the iMatch and find it very good to use (not a big deal to get attachments to fit with some ingenuity and welding done). Once the attachments are fitted to the quick hitch, no more hassle. Just back up to it, lift the 3pt and go. It's a great experience. The TSC hitch's are near the same as others, and probably a good buy IMO. I think they are SpeeCo brand.

I am getting my loader forks fitted with the right pins at the welders today so I can pick them up with the quick hitch. Its a fast way to change from forks to ballast to carry-all to rear blade to rotary cutter (off to hook up PTO), without leaving the tractor. I get lazy as time goes by. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I'm trying to sell my Cat 1/2 Quickhitch Chuck. I'm told it's a SpeeCo. Comes with an almost universal assortment of aftermarket floating/swiveling toplink adapters too. If you've got any plans to be in my area this winter, stop in and take a look.

You want me to go to Ky in the winter? from Fla /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif

Re: Tractor Supply\'s quick hitchs

Most TSC stores have them in stock. They are well made but the top pin did not match up on some of my implements also. Something that you have to pay over $100 for should fit, without having to weld on your implements. I am a fair hand at welding and fabricating and could have modified the implements, but some people are not and this is not the quick hitch for them. I am glad that Beenthere is happy with his i-match but I was not impressed with the TSC hitch.

The operative word was IF chuck. It was a simple invitation, want was never involved.

Chucko,
Pat's Easy Change System is available for purchase here on TBN. AND it helps support TBN.

That was not a problem with the hitch, but with the implements, alot of implement manufactures followed NO standard on pin spacing when making thier stuff.

I also have an I-Match and would not be without it!
