oliver2-44 9,787 #1 Posted November 18 I was looking for some WH goodies on Evilbay and came across this ad by A-Z Tractor Aftermarket 3 point hitch they have designed and are marketing. This is a 3pt hitch manufactured to work on all Wheel Horse garden tractors with the cast iron transmission. This hitch mounts on the rear axle just like the snow plow bracket. This hitch can be mounted with the snow plow bracket or with out it. The hitch uses the lift cable that is made for lifting the rear attachments. The hitch will fit on gear drive tractors or hydrostatic. All it takes to mount the hitch is 4 bolts and 4 nuts the same as the snow plow bracket. The hitch sits on top of the axle housing as to the snow plow hitch is on the bottom. This is a category O 3pt hitch and works with all 3pt hitch garden tractor attachments. The hitch has several holes for changing the lifting leverage and leveling adjusters on both lift arms. There are anti swing chains with adjusters. This hitch has been tested in many conditions and has held up under every test. Note! If you purchase this item and have any issues we want to know so we can correct them. This is a new item something never offered by wheel horse and A-Z Tractor has designed and manufactured this item. We also have a 3pt scraper box that works great with this hitch and plan to offer more attachments in the future. 13 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Goldnboy 927 #3 Posted November 18 Since this uses the lift cable...is there any advantage to the tractors using the rear rockshaft vs those that do not? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I do not like the rock shaft, and its lack of travel. I would imagine the same here, not enough travel to say so. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I agree it isn’t for everyone or every situation, but IMHO it does have value as I noted in this post. A couple of subsequent comments added to it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not sure the top link pivot point would clear the tool box on a 953/1054. When I built mine I needed to compromise on the height of that part of the project. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
