| I have a old mower for my allis chalmers D17 and it has been converted to have a three point hitch on the snap coupler tongue. However, when I hook the mower on the tongue of the snap couple sticks out to far that I can't lift the mower up very far and also the mower is too close to the tires and hits them. Is there a way to move the mower back or am I doing something wrong. |

Sounds like your conversion hitch is for a CA, D10/12 instead of the larger tractors. ------------- If it was fun to pull in LOW gear, I could have a John Deere. If you can't make it GO... make it SHINY |

looks like your lift arms are to short, can't quite tell, but you need about 5 more inches in length. you can try drilling new holes in the flat stock on the bottom of the draw bar and moving everything back. Dan

I had a similar issue with some implements and my D17. Started using a quick hitch to push the implement back from tires 6”-8” ------------- D17 Series 1 Allis B- 1939 Allis B- 1945 |
