The Difference Between Category 1 and Category 2 Three Point Hitches

A dealership staffer uses physical pins, bushings, and a Land Pride bale spear to show hands-on why category one and category two three-point hitch pins are not interchangeable, covering actual pin diameters (7/8" vs. 1-1/8" lower links), the bushing fix when categories don't match, top-link differences, and the side-to-side and height spacing differences between categories. Most useful for newer tractor owners confused about why an implement won't fit or feels sloppy.

Posted by the Kubota of Lynchburg dealership channel, so the presentation is sales-adjacent, though this particular video focuses on practical how-to explanation rather than a product pitch.
