Hugh is right on the aftermarket 3 points. They will work, but they just never seem to fit quite right....or at least that is the case with mine. I installed an aftermarket hitch on my C, and was never quite satisfied with it. The mount point is farther back and when an implement is lifted it lightens the front end even more. And I never could get the thing to have the right amount of lift. Either it did not go high enough, or lifted too high and would not lower far enough. It is setting under a tree now, and I am considering selling it, as I have 2 other 3 point tractors, and just use the C as intended with a mounted mower or drawbar use. They do that well. I actually bought the 3 point to use with a 5 foot bush hog. Should have bought a pull type and saved my money on the 3 point. Some love their Saginaw 3 point, and they are a good quality unit, but I just could not justify the cost, and I would have to be removing it anyway to use my mower. My advice is not to buy one of the cheaper 3 point kits like I did.
