All it is, is a hitch that hooks to your 3pt hitch, just a slick design that's all. I can figure it out pretty easily, just figured there where people here that prob had made them and knew the dimensions off the top of there head.... www.heavyhitch.com
Ohh I see what your talking about now. I seems like Heavy Hitch is a brand name. I've seen some members on here in the past make something similiar to what your talking about but I don't remember who those members are to point you in the right direction.
yeah didn't know what a heavy hitch was either.
i made my own cat1 3pt reese hitch.
26" bottom tube and 18" vertical for mine, don't know that its standard, its what worked for me. none of the rest of my tools were standard ether, had to cut and modify almost all of them to fit in my quick hitch.

There is compact cat1 and cat1. I believe the compact width is 22 and the cat1 is 26 as poster above stated.
I think I can help. 24.75" bottom width, 15" center pin to pin upright.
It is a little more than just a slick design though!

Hey that is what I was after- thanks alot guys! I am not sure what you mean exactly by "the point" I guess... I was just looking for some measurements.
Hmm... I guess I dont understand how that works... well it was very nice of him to reply with that info. As well as the rest of you, of coarse.
I do pay attention to most all the tractor forums but I do get a little help from a program that monitors key words I enter. I like to pay attention and offer help when I can. I've been on this sight quite a few times and figured what better time to join.

And you made a great first impression on me.

It is a receiver hitch that mounts on your 3 point system. It has a receiver that will take a hitch, or a clevis, or a hook, etc.- like a truck hitch- and it allows you to use it to move a trailer or whatever, instead of the drawbar. The advantage is that you can raise it up or down, or you can mount suitcase weights on it while still being able to move a trailer.OK maybe its the pain meds but what is the point of this heavy hitch???
Northern Tool sells a Cat 1 hitch for $129.99 Part#508330 I don't know how well it's built or how well it works.
