What happens here

Position the new 3-point hitch subframe onto the rear chassis of the Ventrac 4500Y tractor. Align the mounting holes and insert the provided bolts, washers, and nuts to secure the subframe. Use an impact driver and socket set to tighten all fasteners, ensuring a stable connection. Reinstall the fender panels that were removed in the previous step. Finally, attach the lower lift arms and the fixed upper arms to the newly installed subframe, using pins and cotter pins to secure them.

Goal: Mount the 3-point hitch frame and its main arms onto the tractor
