At one time I remember finding on this site the book Caterpillar published about how to build hitches for attaching multiple implements to crawlers.  For some reason I can't find it now.  I would like to look at the diagrams for hitching multiple plows together.  Thanks!

and speaking of hitching to tractors and building hitches:: for safety sake never Raise / alter a hitch point on a tractor!
always dropping GOLD, all you have to do is just pick it UP !

The book is still in the library. It is 45 from the end. Implement hitches is the name Form 9996  I may be able to help some also. I built a tandem hitch for my D47U last summer. 3x14 lead plow and 2x14 tail plow both rope trip. Pulls the 5 perfectly.

You are correct Kirk, screen shot below. I have added so many documents over the last year I've forgotten about most of them !

I'm well aware of what happens when you do that!  No personal experience for me but working in an ag dealer I've seen and repaired to results of others.

I appreciate the offer.  I have built a couple that were copies of Deere and IH hitches.  I want a variety of different hitchs for the tractors we take to shows.  Current plan is to have several for the Rantoul show next year ranging from 6 to 11 bottoms.  I would love to see pictures of yours!

I have just added a new (well dated 1930 but new to the library) interesting Caterpillar document on Hitches for Agricultural tractors thanks to Doug Hagan for providing the scanned copy.
