Description
When you’re running big implements on larger tractors, your three-point hitch takes a real beating. The top link socket is where all that stress concentrates—from the weight of heavy equipment to the forces generated when you’re working tough ground or backing up with a loaded implement. If this socket starts wearing out or gets damaged, you’ll notice loose connections and sloppy implement control that makes precision work nearly impossible.
What You’re Getting
- Category 3 heavy-duty construction handles the stress from larger tractors and implements
- Black oxide finish resists corrosion and provides long-lasting protection in all weather
- Precise 1-7/16 inch pin diameter ensures proper fit with standard Category 3 top links
- 3-1/2 inch outside diameter and 1-3/4 inch bore length meet exact OEM specifications
- Direct replacement design—no modifications needed for installation
Built for Real Farm Work
This socket fits tractors equipped with Category 3 three-point hitch systems—typically the bigger utility and row-crop machines used for serious fieldwork. Whether you’re pulling heavy tillage equipment, running large mowers, or operating heavy-duty implements like big disc harrows or deep rippers, Category 3 hitches are built to handle the load.
Made to Last
The black oxide finish provides corrosion resistance while the heavy-duty construction handles the constant stress and vibration that comes with operating large implements. This socket is built to the same specifications as the original equipment, so it’ll give you the same reliable service you expect from your tractor.
Good to Know
Installation is straightforward—remove the old socket and install the new one with basic hand tools. Make sure your tractor is properly supported and the hydraulics are relieved before starting work. This socket replaces R299 Reynolds and several other part numbers, making it a versatile replacement option.
