Central Western VA Mountains | I am fabbing-up an equal angle hitch to fit the fast hitch on my Farmall 350 such that I can use it with my JD square baler. The only thing I need now is the vertical hitch pin to which the baler tongue is attached. I looked on JD parts, but they don’t show this item as separate.
I’m looking for what amounts to a lift arm pin with a 1.25 diameter, same as a cat 3 top link pin.
Any ideas where I can find such a pin?
Thanks!!!!

Croswell, Michigan | I had to take a JD moco 25 miles to a dealer for service a number of years ago. It had the equal-angle hitch in it. I just used a regular cat. 2 3pt pin and put it on the receiver hitch on my truck. It was a perfect fit. |

Snipesville, GA | We have Hesston/CaseIH square balers with the same hitch. We just run a bolt and nut with a keeper pin. Been that way for almost 30 years. |

It's the 1.25 inch diameter that's the hard part. |

East of Broken Bow | I have a Hesston 1160 swing tongue swather. It uses a pin very similar to that, but not sure on the diameter.
The socket wore out on the windrower, and it was cheaper and easier to replace the pin with a trailer ball, and mount a socket on the swather. Got a 20,000# rated ball and socket for less than half the cost of replacing with the factory setup.
As a bonus, the ball/socket is MUCH easier to hitch up. |

just a tish NE of central ND | Someone with a turning lathe could make one.
I never could understand why those hitch attachments were used on few machines instead of centering the PTO like all other machines did as to a position where you didnt need special hitch extensions etc..
From the green parts store site,
Stud,=$$$$145.55
Washer= $3.43,
$6.67 for the lock nut

That might be what we have to do too.
Thanks! |

| Turn a Cat 3 pin to what diameter you want? |

candor ny | Lots of loader bucket pivot pins are 1.25 and you could find one long enough and weld into hole from the bottom |

I won't tell you what they cost, but you're going to want to get a generic one to fit
Would love to see pics once you get the hitch finished |

| Better hope they offer financing, because it looks like the stud only is $145 from Deere.

Central Western VA Mountains | Found a straight copper fitting that fit the Cat 2 pin that I had installed and brought the OD to 1.220 from 1.125. I needed an OD of 1.250, so pretty close and I went with it. Pic is of the equal angle hitch I made. The tractor is a 1958 Farmall 350.
Thanks for all the help!

Central Western VA Mountains | Looks great - thanks for the pic! |

just a tish NE of central ND | Looks good but might have to replace as it squashes due to soft nature of copper, but you are out nothing.
Ive been know to make my own hitch extension right on to the machine hitch to eliminate special hitches.
Recently I removed the hitch ball type of hitch on my Rowse mower and replaced ti with fab-ed together extension and double tongue hitch. I dislike removing and replacing hitch balls on the farm tractor hitches in the middle of haying season over and over.The single mowers had that ball hitch mounted upside down and the doubles have it right side up on top of it all.
ugh.... time consuming frustration when swapping. |
