Not certain which one to get. (Prices are outrageous on both of them compared to the last time I looked!!!)

I see some pro's and con's to each of them. Any strong reasons to get one over the other? Is there another good brand to look at?

Thanks!

They look very, very similar , at least the 2 I saw. $300 US$ for $50 of angle iron does seem 'steep' however if you can't weld or know someone..then buy the least expensive one or whoever HAS STOCK.

TSC owns the County Line name, but TSC does not make any products..
Tarter Gate, and King Kutter have periodically been TSC. implement suppliers.
Tarter Gate builds the least expensive/cheapest stuff.

I am happy with KK. I went KK based on weight carry capacity difference and also where 3 pt pins were located as well as how the frame was welded together. If plan to use a QH definitely check the pin locations on the implement relative to your specific QH.

My recommendation would be to measure and check the pin locations on each type considering and consider when you want to lower it on the 3 pt and imagine that is low enough or not for how you want to drop / pick up each time. (Check ground clearance for up and down 3pt set up)

Good luck.

Just wait until the effects of this Longshoreman's strike takes hold.

You ain't seen nothing yet.

That's exactly right. People don't realize how little manufacturing we do in this country anymore.

But they're about to find out.

Even the products that are made here, are made with foreign made parts and materials that are shipped in.

I do not think people have even the slightest idea of how the strike will affect nearly everything we do, or try to buy.
Most purchases we make are somehow connected to ocean shipping.
Also think about gasoline, heating oil, and diesel.
Much of it is shipped by ocean tanker.

I have the County Line because TSC is close and it was the same price when I bought mine.

It's fine. There's really not much to one of these things.

I did modify mine (of course! :ROFLMAO: ) to make it slide under a pallet better. Angled the business end of the fork. Rounded the sharp corners, too. I also moved the mounting point lower to fit my tractor better.
