Description
When you’ve got a cracked or worn lift arm ball end on your tractor’s three-point hitch, you don’t necessarily need to buy a whole new lift arm. This forged repair end lets you cut off the damaged section and weld on a replacement ball that’s as good as new. It’s a smart way to get your three-point working properly without the expense of complete replacement arms.
What You’re Getting
- Category 2 sizing with 1-1/8 inch pin hole and 1-3/4 inch ball width for proper implement connection
- Forged construction that’s much stronger than cast alternatives and handles heavy loads
- Straight design that works on either left or right lift arms when welded on correctly
- 4-3/4 inch overall length with 2-3/4 inch width at the weld end for good attachment area
- Ready to weld—no machining or modifications needed for most applications
Built for Real Farm Work
Category 2 hitches are found on mid-size to larger tractors typically in the 45-100 HP range—the workhorses that run disc harrows, heavy bush hogs, balers, and other serious implements. Whether you’re running a 7-foot rotary cutter or hooking up a round baler, this repair end provides the same strength and durability as the original equipment that came on your tractor.
Made to Last
This isn’t some lightweight repair piece that’ll give you trouble down the road. The forged construction means the metal grain structure is aligned for maximum strength, making it much tougher than cast ends that can crack under stress. It’s built to handle the forces from lifting heavy implements and the side loads that come from working in uneven terrain.
Installation Notes
You’ll need to cut off the damaged ball end and weld this replacement in place. Make sure to get good penetration on your welds since this joint will see significant stress. A quick tip: grind the weld end smooth after welding to prevent stress concentrators that could lead to cracking later on.
