RE: (ET) Tiller & such wanted

["Elie, Larry (L.D.)" <lelie ford com>]

All the 'sleeve-hitch' implements were, and still are, made by 
Brinley-Hardey (http://www.brinly.com/) and fit any number of 
garden tractors.  BTW, Brinley also made the tiller and I believe 
can sell you tines, but that's about all.  I have a hitch, and only 
one implement, the 'row-crop cultivator' (CC500).  The hitch is 
somewhat independent of the lift in that you can use it without the 
lift.  You can use a Sears plow for example just fine.

The GE sleeve-hitch is pictured on
http://www.geocities.com/electraktractors/p2.html
and probably could be fabricated pretty easy.

Can you include a bit of description on the "sleeve hitch" itself?
I will be in the market for these implements soon, and if I can buy
more or less standard tools, all the better.
Is this an ET item, or can I get a sleeve hitch to go on my ET rear lift?
