Think about what you want the 3 pt for.If you want to only use the 3 pt and want to keep it on there buy the "Saginaw model" that is harder to get on and off.You won't be able to use the snap coupler bell for snap coupler equiptment as easy with this style.
If you want to take it on and off and use both SC and 3 pt equiptment buy the other version that has a SC loop and arms that connect to lift latches.
Depending on model of adaptor the traction booster may not work,Big deal if you are plowing or heavy field work.
Some models have a cross bar that can hit PTO shaft on mowers.Some crossbars can be removed for mowing or PTO work
Plenty of vendors on here sell the different styles of 3 pt adaptors on here,Call a few of them and ask lots of Questions; Cost,Shipping,Waurentee,Paint,Cat 1 or Cat 2,Where are they made,Photos,Can you use original drawbar.
For a new one 400.00 - 800.00
Have seen them sell at auction 100-150
I bought one here from a vendor on here.It works OK but I wish I would have asked more questions and done more research.

You have two choices from me . Snap-coupler - wishbone style , or Draw bar mount. Pictures on web site http://www.tonystractors.com - www.tonystractors.com Just depends on what you want in a hitch. Tony

If your heart isn't set on aftermarket, I see Joe is selling one in the classified section. http://www.allischalmers.com/new/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=30832&title=fs-d17-iv-factory-3-point - http://www.allischalmers.com/new/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=30832&title=fs-d17-iv-factory-3-point

Thought I would mention it.

I would go with a factory 3 point like Joe has for sale.

We put a three point off a 185 on our D17 series IV and have had really good luck with it but once its on its on and there is no going back without full reconversion.
