Quick attach for 3 point implements

I don't hook up to 3 point implements often enough to master it but when I do, most of the time it is a battle. A few of the implements dont have a lot of margin for error with the arm spacing. Anybody have experience with the quick attach 3 point hook-ups?
 
Make sure your implements are quick hitch compatible. Some are not. Overall I prefer a quick hitch.
 
A quick hitch is the only way to go! I apparently have a SpeeCo. :) I have been happy with it and I don't remember where I got it from or how much it was.

I have a couple Cat 1 quick hitches and a Pat's quick hitch as well that's a Cat 1 - Cat 2 conversion.

As mentioned, not all implements are compatible if your Quick Hitch is the stationary type.

One of my Cat 1's is a Case, and I remember correctly, the other is a Speedco. I like the Case better as it is much tighter on the pins. The Speedco is "sloppier" on the regular Cat 1 pins as I think meant for using the QH pins, which I didn't buy and replace on the implements.....

On my Cat 1 implements using the Cat 1 QH, I also find that I need to adjust the top link hook when swapping between my tiller and rotary cutter for example.

I kinda like Pats QH for these reasons. I think it would fit more implements, and I don't have to fight the top link hook to get on the implement, or adjust it for the implement top link height.

You'll extend the implement approx. 3-5" further out using a QH so hopefully your pto shafts have extra length to work with if using pto driven equip.

I have a Pats Quick Hitch on my 46hp Kubota. I love it but it does extend your implements out about another 4” so you may have to buy a longer top link.

For me, it was a game changer when hooking up to my 6’ tiller. You had to be absolutely perfect to get it done and it was much easier with 2 people but was still a bear.

Since getting the QH, I don’t have to endure the stank eye from my wife from asking for help.
