Re: (ET) [BULK] Re: AP50 Sleeve hitch - which way is up?

[Dean Stuckmann <dstuck lakefield net>]

Thanks for the reply. But in the photo it looks like a lot of tube (or  
is it the pin) over that plate. Its not very clear. I wouldn't think  
that the 1/4 overhang would be enough to always capture that plate  
when its being wrenched on either.

Maybe it doesn't make much of a difference once the implement is  
dialed in - as long as you always mount the hitch the same way.

Anyone else have experience with this?

Thanks
Dean
