Thanks guys, I appreciate all the input and suggestions. I'm somewhat notorious for making things work, but I'm not going to be removing a hitch plate to loose just to save a couple hundred bucks. I'll be happier in the long run just putting the Ruegg 3 pt hitch on with adapter plate sor the stuff I've got. If like to keep is as original as possible, and I'll be able to get my $ back out of it should I ever sell it in the distant future.
Thanks for all the help, this is a Great site with Great members!
