Achto 27,514 #1 Posted January 6, 2022 (edited) Found this while surfing and thought it was very interesting. Thought that I would share it and get some comments. https://www.amazon.com/Kolpin-Heavy-Duty-3-Point-Hitch-System/dp/B003UYWUBK/ref=asc_df_B003UYWUBK/?tag=&linkCode=df0&hvadid=309830501429&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=9777140197210288750&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9018899&hvtargid=pla-448694326486&ref=&adgrpid=57212496130&th=1 Edited January 6, 2022 by Achto 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Achto 27,514 #3 Posted January 6, 2022 I like the idea that it can easily be installed and removed. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pfrederi 17,681 #4 Posted January 6, 2022 A normal 3 pt draft arms are mounted way out from center line. here all twisting motion is concentrated on the 2" receiver wonder about stability for an uneven load....... 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maxwell-8 4,275 #6 Posted January 6, 2022 Looks a lot like the 3point you could get on Sears Suburban's. Electric lift in the same spot. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

oldlineman 1,481 #9 Posted January 6, 2022 Very interesting, but think it would require some form of anti twisting support for the receiver. Bob Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
