If I didn't already have a well constructed, rugged 3pt hitch splitter, I would buy a self contained one.
I too usually split by the "Armstrong Splitter" method, as my dad used to call it. Normally I have wood that is fairly straight and decent. However, I have had logging crews here at the farm for the past two summers, and on another large wood lot several miles away for the two before that, doing selective cut and forest improvement. They have left me copious amounts of firewood, tree tops, twisted stuff, anything that wouldn't work on a grapple load, hardwood pulp, pallet wood, etc. Some of the pieces are too big for my 24" bar to cut through. So I am forced to use a splitter on much of it.
Picture was taken of the last of 3 log landings about 30 minutes before they shut down the slasher/loader for the last time. The wood along the tree line is the smallest/straightest I have to deal with. Other landings have probably close to 30 cords of really ugly stuff.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
