Description
If your tractor’s pick-up hitch isn’t responding like it should – either lifting too slow, dropping too fast, or not engaging at all – a worn control cable is often the culprit. This replacement cable connects your cab controls to the pick-up hitch mechanism, giving you precise control when hooking up trailers, wagons, and implements. When you’re trying to back up to that hay wagon in tight quarters, you need the hitch to work smoothly and predictably.
What You’re Getting
- Precise 1310mm total length with 1140mm sleeve for exact fit and proper operation
- Heavy-duty construction that handles the constant flexing and stress of daily use
- Smooth cable operation for precise hitch control from the cab
- Direct replacement – installs using existing mounting points and connections
Built for Real Farm Work
This cable is designed for the robust Ford New Holland 60 Series tractors (like the 8160 through 8560) and TM Series models that are workhorses on farms across the country. These big tractors are the backbone of operations pulling grain carts during harvest, moving hay wagons to the barn, and hauling manure spreaders out to the fields. The pick-up hitch system lets you connect and disconnect quickly without leaving the cab.
Made to Last
The cable housing is built to resist kinking and crushing while the inner cable stays smooth even after thousands of cycles. It’s designed to handle the vibration and stress that comes with heavy farm work, from the constant jarring of field operations to the temperature extremes of outdoor storage.
Installation Notes
Route the new cable through the same path as the original, making sure it doesn’t rub against sharp edges or exhaust components. Adjust both ends for smooth operation – you want just enough tension for crisp response without binding. Test the full range of hitch operation before putting the tractor back to work.
