| Looking thru Auction ads in this weeks Lancaster Farming, saw a pic of a 160 and read the ad. Seems there is a three bottom AC plow with pintle hitch! Hmmm learn something new everyday...Harvey |

Bottom part of it is a pintle hitch for sure. I use that term all the time when explaining the snap coupler to non Allis guys. Pintle hook and 2 arms that couple to the lift arms.

It's KINDA like an SAE pintle, but it's certainly NOT the same form-factor... But I also see 'Pinhole hitch'... eventually, we'll see an ad for an "Alice Charmers with Pinhole hitch..." ------------- Ten Amendments, Ten Commandments, and one Golden Rule solve most every problem. Citrus hand-cleaner with Pumice does the rest. |
