From other reading I've done the 3 point and where it mounted put added pressure on the ground allowing it to plow more acres a day than the Farmall F-30. I really wish I had saved the link. It compared the 9N with the F30.
AS far as size goes to my understanding it was pushing the limits on the 806 tractors. When the 1206 came out at 112 HP the current hitch wasn't large enough and enlarged you lost all ground clearance with it. So the Fast Hitch died.
When we move from the burbs in NJ to west MN I worked and attended church with area farmers who mostly owned Farmalls at the time. A bunch had tractors with the fast hitch on them and absolutely no fast hitch implements. Big reason they stated was they were not going to be force into buying just IH implements. As far as the 560 debacle IH in fact handled pretty well and still sold a lot of tractors after that. Yea it did put Deere in the sales lead but it didn't kill Farmall. Neither did the Fast Hitch. IH lasted 25 years past the 560 and close to 20 after the Fast Hitch.
