jnrcatt Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 The 9530 is the first new britains/ertl tractor I've bought for a while, and wanted it to pull the new UH solitair drill/harrow combo but the hitch is no where near right, so I'm going to try a hitch convertion, any ideas?? I thought about adapting an old britains hitch but not really sure how! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tractorman810 Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 I have seen work on the lemken, very simple to, so the lemken fits the jd hitch , they had removed the uh hitch and added 3 bits of rod into the lemkens moulded 3 point so the jd's hooks pick and hold it no problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tractorman810 Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 here you go mate, found the pics i saved, came of ebay.de a week or so ago now,i know its on the jd precision, but the linkage on that new jd,from the pics i have seen ,it appears the linkage is the same near as, might be worth a try Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jnrcatt Posted February 17, 2008 Author Share Posted February 17, 2008 As promised a picture of the twose hitch convertion, it works well, a bit of a mis-match with the power harrow though, I think I might need a big box of shear bolts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 Glad you posted that mate, looks nice and something to remember when I get round to buying one. That said, I want that US style quick hitch for something else anyway so I may cut it out and replace the whole thing with something. .. When I get one!!
