If the flexpoint doesn't, Bad River has a nice I-Match compatible hitch. Here's a link, but I'm not sure the site has been updated with the I-Match version. ....

In answer to your question, yes, your Flexpoint is compatible with the John Deere I.Match.
The only requirement is the installation of the John Deere
IMatch Bushing Kit over the two lift arm pins of your Flexpoint.
Ask for Part# BW15056 at your John Deere Dealer-their approximate price is $29.95

Does anyone know if I-Match works on the JD 5020 series tractors (Cat II), or just the smaller 4000 series?

I have a Hardi sprayer (cat I) and am looking at a 5020 tractor, BUT am being told the only way they'll work is with I-Match. I can't get a confident answer as to whether I-Match works with those bigger tractors.

Thanks for any help. ....

The i-Match is set up to accept category III tools directly and requires reducer bushings for category II or Category I. Any of your category I tools will hook to a category II tractor by simply using reducer bushings. You will then use a category I top link pin as well. The i-Match just gives you the ease of quick-change hook-up. The bushing kit costs less than $6.00 if you purchase it from JD or Tractor Supply. Or, for the ease of purchase, you can pay $29.95 from Flexpoint. ....

Flexpoint does not carry bushings. They can be purchased at John Deere as stated. ....

The problem, I'm told by the Hardi dealer, is that the newer JD 5000 series tractors have the lateral arms of the 3-point hitch going wider, when they go higher. The result is that some narrower Cat-1 implements are having busted lynch pins when fully lifted and the related dropped implements, etc. Just wondering if others have dealt with this at all. The hole-to-hole distance on my Hardi sprayer is 29.0". But I'm having trouble getting the JD dealer to confirm whether or not the 5320 that I'm looking at has a wider spread at full height than 29.0". THAT'S the dilemna... ....
