I'm looking to buy a 3 pt. quick attach for my L3200. I'm looking at several different. The Land Pride QH-15 is what kubota dealers suggest. But there are some less expensive options. Any suggestions would be helpful.

Mine is cheaper one and works great. I think its a speeco but haven't found any mfg label or info on it. I paid $100 for it new. The guy I bought it from has a tractor parts and repair business and sells some used equipment. He told me he thought it was speeco but he'd had it a while and wasn't sure.

Are all your 3PT Implements QA rated ????

This was a problem for me, I have 4 Implements right now, two are QA ready two are not..

So I had to make a decision of which direction I was going to go...

From my experience, there are many tools that fit the QH from Harbor Freight. It is as heavy construction as more expensive from Northern tool. Cat. I takes tools with 27" as out to out of frame, not counting pins beyond that.

Some others fit on the ends of the lift arms so there would be more flexibility for the Out to Out dimension of the tool. But cost more. See another post here under Pat's Quick Change system. Check on what it does for differing widths of tool.

I have the one from Harbor Freight and I am very happy with it.

speeco makes a nice one that you can generally buy for about $150. It seems to similar to the land pride at a savings. The LP is nice but costly however it should work for all of the QH LP implements. Titan mfg sells 3pt hitch ends which make your 3 pt a QH but you still have to get off the tractor to load and unload and they sell on eBay and work quickly for ALL of my 3 pt implements for less than $100. You still have to move the lift arms as they can swing independently rather than being locked in a fixed configuration. It only converts the ends of the 3pt connector to QH. it works, but I think that the Speeco looks better.

Cheers,

I have the speedco, I believe, bought it from rural king. It was a little over $100 but I think they're a little higher now.

I love this thing, now that I have my implements set up for it. I'm sure some one will correct me if I'm wrong but as long as you have cat 1 implements and buy the bushings to go on the bottom pins of each implements it should hook right up. I have to manually hook up the top link, I don't use the hook thing it came with, I bought another piece, it looks like a (Y), it makes hooking up super easy. Especially, compared to the stock set up.

The only two downsides would be that it's tougher to hook up the pto shaft on the tractor and if you lift it to high it will hit the rear fenders.

Just my 2 cents of course....
