| When I was a teen, Dad wanted to buy a 3pt hitch Lilliston 4 x 38"s "rolling cultivator" to be pulled by our D-17 IV that was a snap-coupler hitch. I'm looking for a picture to show someone the adapter we used. It was a heavily built "A" frame design and intended to be left on the implement. It could not be used with the PTO as the short length top link was in the way. The pull arms were flat steel probably 1 inch thick and 3 inches tall and as wide as a cat #2 3pt hitch. Probably weighed 200++ lbs ?? Anyone have a pic ?? Thank you. |

| Not the one we had, no. Thanks. Please see "Classified" under "need SC hitch for 70 series steerable plow". There's a good picture to what he really needs. |
