Class I to Class II conversion

[soupkid]

I had an international 284 that had a class 1 3 pt hitch so all my implements fit class 1.
I now have a International 484 that has a class II hitch and the implements don't exactly fit.
Is there some type of bushings that I can use to take up the difference in diameter.

Any farm store should have the bushings that slide over the pins to take up the difference. They are like 2.00 each

I got mine at Tractor Supply.

Lots of tractor models you can just flip the lift arms. If the class 2 eyes are rear ward on lifting duty, usually the class 1 eyes are pinned to the tractor with bushings. Most utility ag tractors have reversible lift arms, and yes bushings are available at any tractor/implement dealer.

Assuming that you go with the bushings, the lower arms and top link are different diameters. For the lower arms you need 7/8 ID x 1-1/8 OD and for the top link it will be 3/4 ID x 1 OD

Yes. Go to the back wall of your local tractor supply store, and find the section with all the pins and clevises. There you will find the adapter bushings you're looking for. If the first store happens to be out of stock, go to the next nearest one.

Thanks for the replies.
I wasn't sure if I had to change the pins or not.
The only thing I couldn't change the pins on is my plow.
I believe it's off an 8n or 9n

A 484 may have a reversible top link; one end cat one, one end cat two with a dual diameter pin for use on the tractor end.
