I've read a good many people having issues with the three point moving upward. You guys haven't had this issue at all? My trailer is also heavy....I can't pick up the tongue when it is sitting level. I don't weld but you can find the triangular hitches for the 3 point for about $50 so that may be the way to go. I guess you could also run a small chain from the bottom of one of these to the drawbar mount to keep the lift arms from floating.
I have no idea how many times I've used my hitch to move trailers of all sizes shapes and descriptions. I've never had my 3pt lift. If backing a heavy load such as my 28+4 GN tandem axle tandem wheel trailer with 4 ton of material on it I make sure to keep my 3pt low.
I suggest you purchase and use whatever type you feel you can control.
