OPEN BOX SPECIAL Pat’s Easy Change Category I to II Three Point Quick Hitch

Pat’s Special Order Returned by the Customer

We had a customer who ordered the Pat’s Easy Change Category I on the tractor side (7/8″ holes) and Category II on the attachment side 1 (1/16″ holes).  When I started selling Pat’s Easy Change I thought we’d sell a bunch of these because there’s overlap in the three point size of tractors around 40-45 hp and there are a lot of tractors sold in this range that have Category I three point but are fully capable of using Category II implements.  This size is what you want if you have a Category I 7/8″ lower link arms and have a mixture of Category I & II attachments, because you can use both with this configuration.  Just put implement pin sleeves (not supplied but available at dealerships and farm supply stores) on your Category I attachments and you can pick them up, and the Category II attachments, with this kit.

You get what you see in the picture with this Pat’s Easy Change, everything is there for installation.   The price includes the full set of Pat’s Easy Change claws, both the left and the right side are included plus all hardware.  There is some paint damage on the male part of the stabilizer bar that is also shown in the pictures, but since that slides in a larger assembly, it’s going to get worn off with time anyway.

The normal price for this kit is $244 + freight, which can be close to $50 because of the weight of this kit.  I’m selling this kit for $225 and I’ll cover the freight to the lower 48 states.

Pat’s Quick Attach

Pat’s three point quick hitch system solves a big problem for anyone who changes tractor attachments a lot.  With Pat’s Easy Change, simply back up to the implement, position your lower three point arms under the pins and lift up the position control lever.  The “Eagle Claw” system attaches the lower link arms without leaving the tractor seat.  Pat’s Easy Change. is, by far,  the best system on the market for making hooking and unhooking three point attachments a lot easier!

When using Pat’s there’s no large frame in the way when attaching the PTO.  It does extend the attachment out 4″ further, so there’s a chance you could need a longer top link.  Most tractor/implement combinations can use the original top link.  Pat’s does work on extendible link arms, the claws fit right over them.  Pat’s works with most post hole diggers, unlike the frame-style quick hitches that have to be removed to attach augers.  Pat’s will work on any width of attachment, even if they don’t meet ASE specs, which a lot of older implements don’t.  It is the most versatile three point quick hitch!

Pat’s Easy Change is truly universal. It uses set screws and u-bolts for stabilization and comes with shims to secure the attachment on the tractor.  The spring loaded latch system secures implement pins and requires no extra bushings that can run up the cost of your quick hitch.  Get it out of the box, install it, and you can put it right to work!

Pat’s Easy Change is American made out of quality hot rolled cast steel. If you want to know how strong they are, the hitches were stress tested and the hook broke on the category#1 model at 24,000 lbs.  The cat#2 held to 41,000 lbs. before the hook gave. There is nothing that your tractor can handle that a Pat’s hitch can’t.

If you want the strongest and most-versatile three point quick attach, there’s no other choice than Pat’s Easy Change!
