I decided to get one of these so I can use the trailer mover and some other things on the front of the tractor. Did not intend to make one but the prices were kind of high. $1000-$1200 from mainstream retailers and $500-$600 on ebay. So then I figured someone on TBN surely has already solved this problem.
My first search turned up a build by countrybumpkin, he welded ssqa plates to a HF quick hitch. I thought that was pretty slick so I did the same. I got the quick hitch for $79 with a 20% discount and a Titan ssqa plate for $95. Welded them together. Two pix below show it jigged and ready to tack, and then welded up. Needs paint although someone here said that rust is also a color and I may go for that.
