 Topic: Homemade 3 pt hitch for AC model B/C
Posted: 05 Feb 2017 at 3:50pm |
|
I am in the process of making a 3 pt for my model C. I have been doing alot of reading on how to mount it, dimensions, and so forth, but all the threads that I have found the pictures are not showing up any longer. So it's hard to get ideas on where others have mounted them and how long to make the lift arms.
If anyone has some pics or measurements that they could post here is really appreciate it. Maybe save me some trial and error fabrication.
Thanks in advance.

I understand the feeling that fabricating something yourself gives, but unless you have all of the materials available for free, you might want to consider picking up one of the aftermarket kits. They cost less than $400 and everything is done for you. The time I saved was invaluable when I put one on my B.

I work as a welder and have tons of scrap I can pick through. Think I have all materials needed except the pins for the lower arm pivots, the weld on ball links that are on the end of the lift arms and the adjustable links that go from the rock shaft down to the lift arms. Just have to cut to length and weld together pretty much.

Well that does make a difference  If you need them, I can take some pics and measurements of mine but I have to go to my shop during the week
