My new homebuilt 3-point hitch...

[allenlook]

Finally got around to finishing up the 3-pt. hitch on the Super A. Built it mostly from parts I got from Redland Hill on eBay and from the local Tractor Supply Company, with a bunch of fabrication required for the top link mount point. I think it came out ok! Next up, the AC generator mount for the Cub - the driveshaft is complete and the pulleys are mounted, now I just need to figure out where to put it.

Thanks Jostev,

Now, I just need a 3-point *implement*! :D:D

Looks good Allen. But you need a sway bar to keep it from moving left and right.

[Bigdog]

Looks good Allen - Like Merlin said, add a sway bar or some chains. You don't want those pretty straight arms wrapping around a tire.

[allenlook]

Oops, I forgot to show the chains. It's hard to see them, but in the center of each lower arm is a big "U" hook already installed, and I'm making the tabs to put the chains into on the final drives.

Hey Allen... NICE JOB Once you get the sway chains mounted you'll have SAVED about $500.00 (the price for most after-market 3-point hitches)...NICE FEELIN' AIN'T IT Of course those "savin's" will be eaten up right away on the purchase of NEW 3-point implements, BUT...that's why you made it in the FIRST PLACE

[allenlook]

Hmmm, one question.

A lot of the kits come with a beefy bar at the top that's U-bolted to the stock swaybar tube... I didn't bother to do that, do I need to worry about that tube getting bent?

[jostev]

personally I think you will be fine, unless you plan on really really yanking on somthing... that's just me tho
