This is a home made hitch a friend made for me. After I saw how well the one he made for himself worked I asked if he would make me one. This hitch also is can be a cherry picker lift, kind like the engine plucker lift jack. The top reciever is where the lift goes and it also can accept a goose neck hitch as well. I addition to the above; I connect a hitch haul basket to carry my tools and stuff when I go to cut wood I wish I could weld and fabricate like my buddy can! I use this hitch regularly to move my trailers and it sure does make life easier when parking them in tight quarters. These hitches have been around and used by DIY'ers for many years if not decades and are of a very simple design. Easy to make for the do it yourselfers who can weld. I was so pleased with the work he did, I just had to hurry up and post some picks! As a safety note; be sure to rig up some type of safety chain or cable as I have shown to prevent the entire 3 pt. hitch from rearing up if the tongue weight of the trailer should shift.
