I'm located up near Chicago, IL and was just wondering if there was anybody out there within a couple hours drive that has an oc-3 with a three point that I could possibly come and look at and get some dimensions so I can build one for mine.  Looking at the Hydra-Ease brochure it doesn't look like it would be that complicated to fabricate the mounting brackets and such.  I was at tractor supply up in michigan last weekend and they had standard lift arms and adjusting links that could easily be made to work for a very reasonable price.  Thanks in advance for any info you can give me.

Someone on here should go into business making 3 point hitches for HGs, OC-3's, 4's, and 6's. I think they could make some money.

I have acctually considered building one for mine. If I could do it ecconomically then I would consider making kits. I was woundering if the best way to go would be to do away with the two spoon hydraulic levers for a three lever system. Then you could run the third lever as remote hook-up. Not only would this set-up be good for a mounted three point hitch, but also for remote operated pull equipment. I'm building a couple of trailers right now. Maybe that will be one of my next projects. :wink:
