SpeeCo Category-1 E-Hitch – Overview
Hooking up rear attachments to a 3-Pt Hitch can be a real pain. But it doesn’t have to be. A quick hitch will typically reduce your effort by 90%, and best case scenario you don’t even need to leave your seat. The more you change attachments or the heavier attachments you use, the more you’ll benefit from a quick hitch.
The unique design of the SpeeCo E-Hitch will not just save you time, but money too compared to other quick hitches.
Save Money!
This quick hitch doesn’t require bushings for your attachments! The John Deere iMatch and all others require you to buy and install a $40+ set of bushings on each 3 point attachment. You can completely avoid that expense with this quick hitch. The lower two hooks are sized to be a direct fit to a Category 1 pin size!

GWT HITCH HANGER BUNDLE HIGHLIGHTS
The Hitch Hanger is a bracket that attaches with a simple strap connection to your quick hitch, allowing you to hang three suitcase weights (41or 70 lb) off to the side, while still keeping the connection to your quick hitch and your three-point attachment.
HOW MUCH COUNTERWEIGHT DO YOU NEED?
The answer to this is tractor specific, but your manual should indicate the recommended rear ballast or counterweight to balance against your front-end loader. This can be in the form of liquid ballast in you wheels, wheel weights, and the weight of the rear attachment itself. But often this is not enough weight to hit the manufacturer recommended total. Enter the hitch hanger, which provides a solution to gain that additional weight without increasing your footprint.
WHAT 3-PT ATTACHMENTS NEED MORE WEIGHT?
A 3-Pt Hitch does not product any down-pressure, so if you are running a ground engaging attachment you’re reliant upon the weight of that attachment for all of its digging power. This includes plows, discs, pluggers, aerators, tillers, and box-blades or graders. Some times the attachment will have a shelf for adding weight, but many do not. Using our Hitch Hangers is a great way to gain downward force for that attachment, providing better, faster results.
Priced per pair (1 left, 1 right) w/ 6 suitcase weights of your choosing.
