would anybody have any information on the hitch that hooks in the snapcoupler and fastens to the lift arms and your disc hooks to it to let traction booster work.

It sounds like you want a 3 point adapter. Bob

I have a wheel disc that only hooks to the drawbar. The traction booster will "snitch" the disc up in hard pulling but it doesn't add weight to the back wheels like a true snap couple disc does.

he is wanting just the hitch you will find info about in allis lit it is the hitch for the big capacity tools that allowed you to pull a 14 foot disc and other wheel mounted implements and still use the traction booster system, you take the drawbar off and hook this up to the snapcouplers both upper and lower and then hitch the disc or other tool up and away you go. I have 2 of these but that is all I have seen except in pictures

AC Man, what kind of disc do you have? If it is an AC snap couple disc missing the hitch, you might end up buying a parts disc. That might be handy if you ever need a bearing. If you have a 3 point disc, you could use one of the snap couple 3 point thingys.

I have just the hitch for the disc that utilized the pully and chain to accomplish the weight transfer. The chain is gone as I recall, but if someone wants the rest, $25 plus freight will get it on its way.

there should just be a piece of pipe stood up at the end and welded on this is where the tongue of the disc would hook to and be able to pivot side to side . if you have a drawbar mounted pull type you have to take the front tongue off the disc to attach it to the tb drawbar
