Screwed up a PTO shaft and had to cut it off making it too short to work safely. They wanted $350 for a new PTO shaft. I tried this extender and it makes up for the 3 inches I cut off. Saved me lots of money. Looks well made and has worked well so far.
Why farmers pick Xtend 2.0
Cheaper than a new shaft.
No more straining to hook up.
No cutting your PTO shaft.
Got Questions? We’ve Got Answers
Xtend 2.0 uses the industry-standard 1-3/8" 6-spline connection:
Female end → your tractor's PTO stub
Male end → your implement's driveshaft
The tractor side fits consistently. Just confirm your implement uses the same 1-3/8" 6-spline standard before ordering. Compatible with quick-hitch systems like Pat's 3-Point, and commonly used with Kubota, John Deere, New Holland, and Kioti tractors.
No cutting required. As long as your PTO shaft keeps proper overlap when fully extended, adding Xtend 2.0 won't force you to shorten anything.
Xtend 2.0 restores PTO overlap lost after adding a quick hitch. It sets your implements back a few inches, shortening your shaft's reach.
Quick check before ordering: raise and lower your 3-point through its full range with the implement attached. If the shaft comfortably reaches at every height, you're good as-is. If it comes up short or feels tight, that's exactly what this fixes.
Forged in GalvaSteel. Zinc-galvanized steel built to resist rust and wear across seasons.
Rated up to 70HP
Precision-milled 6-spline for a snug, true fit, no wobble
Like any driveline part, it's a wear component. Treat it the way you would any PTO connection, and always keep the shaft's safety shield in place.

Turn off the tractor. Let the PTO come to a full stop. Then remove your old extender or coupler and wipe down the connection points so you're working with a clean surface.
2. Grease Up
Apply a light coat of grease to the spline before installing. This reduces wear over time and helps Xtend 2.0 slide into place smoothly instead of forcing it on dry.
3. Press & Lock
Line up the spline, push Xtend 2.0 onto the shaft, and press until you feel the locking plunger click into place. No collar to pull back, no wrestling.
4. Check It's Firm
Give it a firm tug before you power back up. If it holds without shifting, you're locked in and ready to run. That's it. no tools, no second-guessing.
Built for
Your Tractor
Confirmed to work across the brands and setups farmers run every day.
Kubota

"Excellent quality"
Excellent quality a must have if using any kind of quick hitch tractor system. The extender is easy to attach and is easy off. I used the item on my tractor when I installed a quick hitch on my tractor I did not have to cut or my pto shaft or purchase a longer one. The extender also makes it easier to hook up implements as it extends the pto shaft out away from the pto guard which can be troublesome when trying to hook up implement. Highly recommend.
"Equipment that we should have always had"
This PTO extender works great on our tractor and one piece of equipment that we should have always had. It making hooking up the bush hog and other equipment to the tractor PTO very easy and very quick. We just leave it connected to the tractor shaft and it’s always ready to go.
"It saved me $50!!"
This extension saved me $50 by not requiring me to buy a new PTO shaft.
"Easy to install!"
Easy to install to the existing PTO on my Kubota L3240. I really like the push pin style lock versus the standard button style on most of my implements. The extra length allowed me to attach a stump grinder that due to the quick hitch I have on the tractor the shaft was a little to short to safely run the equipment. Time will tell how durable this item is but first impressions are that it appears to be sturdy and will serve the purpose I need it for. I would recommend it.
"Excellent value and quality"
Purchased for my Kubota LX2602SUHST compact tractor to provide some extra clearance when attaching bush mower PTO shaft. Needed this due to some loss of clearance from the quick hitch. Seems to be well made, and thus far it has worked well. Makes attaching and removing PTO shaft much easier.
"Beyond amazing!"
I bought this because Rural King gave me the wrong PTO for my brush cutter, and was a few inches short. This installed easily, and allows the PTO to nest deeper within itself. It also allows the connection and removal of the PTO to occur without bashing up my hands working the coupler. That alone is reason enough to buy this product. It has a nice heft to it, and I think it will last a long time.

DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS COMPANY.
I ORDERED THE 3 PACK AND NONE OF THEM FIT MY TRACTOR OR IMPLEMENTS. ITS OUT OF TOLERANCE FOR SIZE.
I HAVE TRIED 6 TIMES WITH EMAILS TO ASK FOR A RETURN BECAUSE THEY CLAIM 30 DAY MONEY BACK GUARENTEE.
AT THIS POINT I ONLY ASSUME THEY ARE NOT REPLYING BECAUSE THEY DO NOT WANT TO REFUND ME.. BY THE WAY THERE ARE A DOZEN OTHER COMPANIES MAKING THIS EXACT SAME THING AND SELL ON AMAZON FOR $32. MUCH MUCH CHEAPER AND THEY FIT PERFECTLY. SO THIS KOWBOY COMPANY IS PURPOSELY PRICE GOUGING AND TAKING ADVANTAGE OF PEOPLE. DO YOUR SELF A FAVOR AND GO TO AMAZON.
This is a fantastic upgrade for my tractor. The 1-3/8" 6-spline connection fits perfectly, and I've been able to easily attach all my implements. It's simple, sturdy, and performs flawlessly.
I've been using this PTO extender for a few weeks now, and it's held up well under tough use. The build quality is solid, and it connects securely with no wobbling. A must-have for anyone with a tractor!
I've got 5 tractors and it only goes on half way on any of them. This is made with a little taper or the splines aren't cut right. I don't know what to do at this point.
Xtend did not fit my implements, slightly to large. Emails to Luka at Kowby went unanswered after their initial response. I went from encouraged to defeated in short order. It just doesn't fit on the male end folks. Female end was super snug as well.
Love it! The protective PTO shroud on my Yanmar tractor is not hinged, and those pull back collars on today's PTO shafts are a royal PITA. This extension makes connecting them SOOO much easier! A must for anyone who's tired of fussing with and cussing their implements. Very fast shipping excellent quality and just what I was looking for. 100% recommend. Alreadz told everyone in our local farmer group!!
I have a 3 point mower that I wanted to mount on a tractor that had a quick hitch mounted on the 3 point. The quick hitch makes hooking and unhooking very fast and easy, but has the effect of setting whatever you hook to it rearward several inches, which made the PTO shaft on the mower to be extended farther than I liked seeing it. I got this to extend the PTO so that the shaft wouldn't have to be extended so far. Real easy to mount, just press the button and push it on the shaft (just like a normal PTO coupler) and then connect the PTO shaft to it. My mower only takes lkie 20 HP so I don't know how much power this can take, but it worked well with no wobble for what I wanted it for. I had another one in the past that had a collar you pulled back to connect the extension to the PTO shaft, and I greatly prefer this design. It is coated with something, I think yellow Zinc to prevent rust, and so far the coating is doing its job. Works well for what I use it for.
Appears well made.
Box arrived on time but was not sealed. One piece of tape and 30 seconds labor time would have secured it. This is a heavy product and it is surprising it did not fall out of its shipping box in transit. Fit well, strength not tested yet. Label did not even cover opening. Lucky it made it.
Did not want to slide on primary PTO shaft even with lubricant. Instead I install this extension into a PTO shaft running to bush hog. Then I was able to slip it onto the primary PTO shaft. Maybe the angle was better. Don’t know but I do know it’s a lot easier to reach in an disconnect/connect an implement shaft with this extension in place.
This extender/adapter is high quality and solved my problem exactly. I had an implement and tractor wherein no standard PTO shaft fit. Available shafts were either too short or too long. The extra 4" (6" overall) gained by installing this adapter solved that problem. Works as advertised makes attaching implements to the pto shaft easier. 100% recommend.
Got this to fix the reach my quick hitch was eating up on my Kubota , used to have to practically climb onto the tractor just to hook up my finish mower. Install was easy, greased it up like the instructions said, and it locked in with one push, no fighting a collar like my old one. Tractor side fit perfect right away. Only knock is it was a little snug going onto the mower's coupler at first, but it seated fine and hasn't budged in two months of regular use. No wobble, feels solid. Docking one star for the tight fit, but overall it did exactly what I needed and made hooking up a lot less of a hassle.
Really good idea but you need to make sure your PTO shaft is not too long. My shredder PTO shaft was too long to fit so I had to take the extender off. I might be able to use on other equipment I have.
We just changed over to a set of Pat's Easy Hitches for the three point hitch on our John Deere and felt that a couple of our PTO shafts might not reach from the implement to that tractor, so I picked up one of these to give us a few more inches of reach without buying a longer PTO shaft.
I bought this because Rural King gave me the wrong PTO for my brush cutter, and was a few inches short. This installed easily, and allows the PTO to nest deeper within itself. It also allows the connection and removal of the PTO to occur without bashing up my hands working the coupler. That alone is reason enough to buy this product. It has a nice heft to it, and I think it will last a long time.
Using this while hooking up my bush hog really makes it so much easier than wrestling with the whole shaft and trying to get the thing to rotate just enough to slide on the tractor PTO stem while you're twisted up and in a bind.
excellent quality a must have if using any kind of quick hitch tractor system. The extender is easy to attach and is easy off. I used the item on my tractor when I installed a quick hitch on my tractor I did not have to cut or my pto shaft or purchase a longer one. The extender also makes it easier to hook up implements as it extends the pto shaft out away from the pto guard which can be troublesome when trying to hook up implement. Highly recommend.
Is definitely the right length. Only problem is one of the original prongs on the dryer cord is to long. The one female slot is too short. Will not plug in all the way. The third or ground plug.
I purchased the cat. 1 PTO extender for my 96 year-old father-in-law's tractor to make hooking up the PTO shaft easier. I am very satisfied with the purchase and my father-in-law is thankful for the addition.
This is one nice piece, it went on very nicely and made it so much easier to hook up the pto drive line with less hassle. The item it self is very durable for the price.
Terrible! Purchased 1 and it slides on the PTO about 1 inch. Marked as defective, they sent another, same thing barely 1 inch then wont budge. Tried on 3 different tractors all with the correct size PTO. It simply does not fit, hard to use , dont waste your money on this poorly constructed item. Only plus is fast delivery!
Wish i had one of these sooner. Makes hooking up the pto shaft much easier and saved me from ordering longer pto shafts when i went to a quick attach system!!
Easy to install.
Extended reach to PTO shaft because quick hitch added connection length.
Quick delivery. Seen other similar items for much higher price.
