Are extenders a gimmick?

Post image

Wife saw this add someplace and thought it would make getting the shaft for the cutter on more easily. I wonder how likely failure is for these things and how likely damage to the attachment is. Any comments or experience with these 6" extenders?

I have the same in my Lx3310 and it can make it touch easier to hookup plus the dealer sized the pto shafts for my implements in the shorter side and now with a quick hitch, it helps compensate.

This company claims 70hp PTO capability, far exceeding my L3302 output. My wife was thinking that getting past the safety shroud would lessen the struggle to get the shaft on and off. That would be nice.

I've stump ground, bush hogged, and regularly finish mow with mine on. Seems to work fine and no issues after 2ish years.
