Description
When you’re hooking up implements to your pickup hitch, having the right height adjustment can mean the difference between a smooth connection and wrestling with equipment that doesn’t quite line up. This adjustable lift rod lets you fine-tune your pickup hitch position to match whatever implement you’re pulling—from disc harrows that need to sit level to brush hogs that work better with a slight rake. It’s one of those parts that makes your daily work just a little easier.
What You’re Getting
- Adjustable length from 460mm to 830mm (about 18 to 32 inches) for versatile implement matching
- Heavy-duty construction that handles the stress of lifting and towing implements
- Direct replacement for worn or damaged original equipment lift rods
- Designed specifically for tractors running 11 x 28 rear tires for proper geometry
Built for Real Farm Work
This lift rod works with Ford 4000 and 4600 series tractors—those reliable utility machines you see handling everything from hay operations to general farm maintenance. These tractors were built to work with a variety of implements, and this adjustable rod gives you the flexibility to optimize your setup whether you’re pulling a rotary cutter, disc, cultivator, or any other drawbar implement. The pickup hitch system was designed to handle moderate pulling loads while keeping implements properly positioned.
Made to Last
Farm implements put real stress on hitch components, especially when you’re working uneven ground or making tight turns. This rod is built to handle those forces while maintaining its adjustment capability season after season. The threads stay clean and functional, and the rod itself won’t bend or break under normal working loads.
Good to Know
This is specifically sized for tractors with 11 x 28 rear tires—using it on other tire sizes can affect the hitch geometry and implement performance. If you need the long tube version of this system, that’s a separate part (1702). When adjusting the rod length, make sure your implement sits level when the tractor’s on flat ground—this gives you the best field performance and reduces wear on both the hitch and implement.
