Sleeve hitch for 1974 b 80?

I think you would be better off buying a Wheel Horse sleeve (clevis) hitch, OR if your tractor has a slot hitch, fabricate a slot to sleeve adapter.

 

Is your plow like this?

Here is an OEM adapter for the same plow.

Here is the adapter I made, although it is too short, you can see the concept.

Oh, and :WRS:

I don't have a plow but looking for one. but that adaptor looks interesting and doesn't look very hard to make.

Thanks for the reply.

Definitely go with the Wheel Horse hitch. That Craftsman hitch looks quite flimsy.

scotty, here are some photos I borrowed from this forum.

 

This is a slot hitch:

This is a clevis (also called a sleeve) hitch:

The slot to sleeve adapter I made and posted is for a clevis hitch plow (2nd photo) and used in a slot hitch 1st photo) on the tractor.

 

Clear as mud!
