I have a Case IH 385 that has category 1, but if you flip the arms around, they are category 2. Meaning, where it attaches to the tractor is cat 2, till you flip 'em around. Generally though, I don't flop them, I'll just use a bigger tractor. I don't know if any manufactuer makes them like this or not anymore, when you flipped it to cat 2, it wasn't as strong as a true cat 2, cause the arms were still cat 1 strength, just cat 2 holes. Just made for occasional use. hope this helps Follow Ups: Post A Followup Name: E-Mail: Subject: Re: Re: Category 1 vs. Category 2 3-pt hitches Comments: Optional Link URL: Link Title: Optional Image URL: Email Notification: If you check this box, email will be sent to you whenever someone replies to this message.
