I live in Wisconsin and the cheapest one is for 355 in oklahoma and shipping is 70 bucks so i don't want to resort to that. [Reply]   [Send Email]

I didn't buy it, so I don't know if it was the cheap one, or not! I was not impressed with the scrawney little thing, and built my own, just retaining the general design, and buying the factory Ford type arms, which was sturdy enough to satisfy me. Since I added live hydraulics, from a front mounter pump, and put 2 three inch dia cylinders, on my 3 pt, with down pressure, I can lift both back wheels clear of the ground, without damangeing my hitch.

New ones as listed in a value built catalog are $667.98 plus shipping. Me when I want one I build it but yes I know not all people can do things like that. As for finding one close put ads in as many places as you can and then keep putting them there till something shows up. Craigs list is one place to post an ad. Also post one here and even on the radio if you have any of the sales programs in your area. Be ready to spend $200-700 for one depending on what it is   [Reply]   [Send Email]

You will have to compare them for yourself.   [Reply]   [Send Email]
