First tractor and trying to convert to three point hitch............ The fast hitch receivers on my 1957 Farmall 450 are spaced @ about 26" apart with just a bit of side to side play in the arms/receivers. I bought a pair of curved tong adapters thinking it would give me a bit more flexibility. Quickly discovered I didn't have enough side to side play in the fast hitch arms to make them work either way. Couldn't get them spaced properly to connect to the pins on my disc which are 26" apart. It's now obvious to me I simply need to get a pair of straight tongs which should work just fine. I'm just wondering if I'm missing something???? Also, trying to figure out what the purpose is of the arm which comes off the tractor and connects to the right side fast hitch arm. Looks like maybe sway control or some sort of adjustment. Appreciate any help.
