In Reply to: Fast Hitch on M??? posted by Farm 'em All on October 10, 2009 at 11:22:13:
I have 3pt. hitches on two Farmall M's and back in the 60's we had one on a farmall 400. All after market and we were happy with them. They bolted on to the axel housings. At that time we used a mounted cultivator (sometimes pulling a 4 row planter also) (4 row 40" and 6 row 30") with a couple of weights on the front end so I know the castings will hold up. Now having said that I know the fasthitch from a 450, 460, or 560 will work as good with the brackets that D. Slater shows which were designed by Dan Super27 and you can get a fullscale drawing from him. I would also make axel mounts to take some stress from where the axel housings mount to the rear end. Look in the archives for Dan Super27 to find his pictures and comments. Also the Paul Abbot Co. from Ak. made a aftermarket hitch that could be used as either a fast hitch or a 3pt. I can possibly get an adress for Paul Abbot Co. and I should have Dan Super 27's adress in you want it. Armand
