It's a problem of these hitches that I mentioned. But I don't want to sound too negative. ;) Because I use something similar to it all the time - mine is an old Ford N swinging drawbar with extending feature that dad slightly modified to fit the Ford 960. It bolts onto a 3pt drawbar & pins over the lower arms, does not use the top link. Very very handy, but moves in an arc, does not remain parrallel as yours does. Put a 200 bu gravity box behind it, forget what you are doing on a hill, and it _will_ hurt me. Or at the least, hurt the tractor. Trust me on that!!! You have no idea of the 'slam factor' of that hitch rearing up with force behind it..... But, this tractor is certainly designed to pull that size wagon. You have to consider what people _will_ do with it, not what is common sense. Common sense has _no_ bearing in all of this..... Unfortunately in my opinion, but my opinion will not get you anything.... ;) I do like your design & plans for it, I just bought one of the cheaper deals offered on tractorbynet.com, but sounds like you are planning a price point that is worth looking at! :) --->Paul
