Tractor
Kubota B1700, IH Cub Lo-Boy 185( Sold) & Deutz Allis 5215 (Sold)
I experimented with a hitch design very similar to this on my IH Cub Lo-Boy 185 a few years ago. It has worked out so good I had to build a 2nd one for my recently picked up a Deutz-Allis 5215

99% of my tractor usage is moving pallets or trailers around the yard. This utility hitch is designed to do both of those extremely well.

Made from 2x2x3/16 square tube, 1/2" plate, and weld-on 2" receivers available on Amazon.

(Yellow version made for Lo-Boy in 2015)

It's funny you mention the for storage pockets. I didn't think to add them to the lo-boy hitch years ago and it's been on my to-do list ever since. Needless to say their both outfitted with them now.
