Quick Hitch Difference between SC and others

I know there is a difference in the prong size of Quick Hitch implements for a Super C and the larger tractors. My question, is there a difference in the width of the prongs so that if I sent a novice (my uncle) to look at an implement there is an easy way for him to know? Or any other way to discern the difference. By the way it is a sickle mower that I am wanting. Thanks, David
 
Widths are the same on both sizes.
Spacers are used if you want to hook the smaller prong implement onto a tractor with the larger sockets.
 
Easiest way I know to tell the large prongs from the small prongs is to measure the height of the prong where the little block is welded on the bottom side of the prong. The small prong height is 2 1/2" and the large prong height is 3".
As the earlier post stated, the prong spacing is the same for either one. If you`re looking for a fast hitch mower,this shouldn`t be an issue anyways because all fast hitch mowers came with small prongs. If you had a FH tractor that used large prongs, you had to buy the 1/2" thick filler plates from IH if you already didn`t have them for a different FH implement.All they are is a chunk of steel 1/2" thick by 1" wide by I think around 12" long with a roll pin in one end so it didn`t slide out of the socket when hitching.
 
I forgot to mention , that it doesn`t mean you don`t have to look at the prongs to make sure the farmer didn`t just weld a chunk of 1/2" steel to the underside of the prongs rather than using and losing the filler plates. I`ve seen many like this, so you should measure just to make sure ! Good luck,Mark
