More of a weekend warrior mechanic here , 40 year Aircraft Mechanic that loves to rebuild most anything, Right now currently own 3 wheel horse tractors, c160 with Kwik Way plow / c140 with mower deck ,and what I believe is a c161 16hp hydrostatic drive   all run and start normal after cleaning up and chasing some wires also have a complete unattached kwikway loader for older wheel horse that needs reassembled with the 4 new hydraulic cylinder I purchased for it , it's the same loader I have on the C160.  But what I'm really interested in is a 3 point hitch setup for use with a cultivator or disc plow setup , would be ideal to find a model number , diagrams or pictures of 3 point hitch set up for one of these tractors,

Hi,

I live near Dillsburg and saw a couple of small 3-point hitches (red) on Facebook Marketplace.

Have you looked there?  There is a bunch of WH stuff listed.

 

BTW, welcome!

 

EDIT: I re-read your post and realize you are looking for documentation.  Sorry.

If you search by your model number, you can limit your search to the files section.  That may give you your desired results.

I seen one for I believe $295 but owner stated it was for a gt14 and since being new to wheel horse tractors Im not sure if it would cross over to any of mine and he did not know either, that's some of the help I could use , there seems to be a company a-z with an aftermarket 3 point hitch assembly but I'm having a hard time justify $500

There was not a WH 3 point made to fit any of you tractors. Only the. gT14 and D series has 3 point hitches available. There are some threads on here where people have made their own.  I’ve also seen the Sears/craftsman 3 poin hitches retrofitted to. WH tractors. But be advised the Sears 3 point hitch has different dimensions and only works with Sears implements.

As Jim stated, the Super C-195 was the only C series that was designed for a factory 3 point.   Yours will have to be a custom built hitch.

The limiting factor is the 23" tall tires. The tractor is too close to the ground to make the lift effective when raised. Sears has the same problem. Wheel Horse tiller lift requires it be repositioned for transport so the tines clear the ground.

Have a Sears self-powered tiller with Sears 3-point on a C-120. Got around the problem by adding a cable between the tiller and tractor that applies the belt driven tiller clutch when the tiller is lowered. Tiller raised and the tines are disengaged and spin freely to clear the ground. No more yard torn up at the end of the tilled rows.

Thanks for all the replies , I'm having the feeling that I'll use 2 wheels horses for the Front loaders , 1 wheel horse with mower deck and Either Jd317 or the jd316 I have for a plow setup, my goal was to have one universal tractor but may not be that practical at the moment,

My Other Half and I have found over the years that having several available is a more efficient way to operate.
