3pt hitch fitting question
 
1 Attachment(s)
Attachment 53628

Does anyone know if a 3 pt hitch off of a 1641 will fit on a 2182 properly?
The hitch in the attachment book that came with the 2182 shows what looks like two cylinders mounted to each arm going up under rear fenders. I didn't know if they were hydraulic or schock absorbers? This 1641 hitch has the arm that goes up to the middle of tractor and connects to the pivot that moves deck up & down.
Will it fit & work ?

The links that go up under the frame are solid. They attach to the rockshaft. The SGT 3pt's lift the same way as the GT ones. You are the second person to ask about the 1641 hitch that is for sale on c-list. IDK if it will fit a super. The hitches were different. I personally think that it would fit. Perhaps with some drilling to the frame/hitch. There is only one difference between the frames of a SGT and a GT. The frame is notched at the top of the super frame. You will need a different lift bar for sure. IDK if anyone has tried it, if so they have never spoken up. The SGT 3pt was heavier. There are two companies that reproduce them. They are available new.

Thanks J-mech. Yep, that's the one I was referring to. I'm not far from there ever other week. Is RUEGG Mfg one of the companies you mentioned? Is there another one too. I'd rather just get the one that goes on the SGT.
I noticed up under the rear fenders on each side there is a hydraulic line that's capped off. What are the for?

Definitely not. Actually I think that Craigslist ad is a scam. I also hear there's an ebola epidemic in that area, best not to go near.

No, I talked to the guy. Pretty nice fellow. You must be the caller from Minnesota ? ;)
I've decided I want the one that goes on the SGT without any mods needed

Aaron at Xtreme makes GT hitches and Bill Ruegg makes the SGT hitches. Here is what you get with the Ruegg hitch.

Extreme makes a nice hitch for a super or regular garden tractor. If you're wanting one that looks OEM, than buy a Ruegg instead.

Ruegg looks like the way to go.for $395. Hopefully the shipping wouldn't be that much to Ohio.
Is anyone on here near Dayton, Ohio or London ky?

Did you call Bill? I can never find a price on his site. I will soon be finding out how hard it is to put a SGT hitch on a GT. It WILL fit, one way or another. :biggrin2: (No, I haven't bought it yet.....)
