Wasn't happy with the hitches for sale, soo....

[BMan2005]

I built my own! Needed a front receiver hitch on my Polaris Ranger for a harness I'm building to run my dogs (next project). I looked at the hitches for sale, and all of them I found had mixed reviews. Biggest complaint was them bending, not good after you pay $100+ one. Wasn't the biggest project but I like it. I bolted it straight to the front bumper, this will be good for my portable cratle winch also.

Looks good like a front hitch should. :thumbsup:

I got mine on eBay back in 2013. Very handy. It has been used a lot and is holding up well:

I looked at those and read sone mixed reviews about them bending. Most said with minor use, but they are probably the same ones that sale items on Craigslist, lightly used :laughing:

Mine has had heavy use, this 6K tilt trailer weighs 1786 pounds, with 96 pounds of tongue weight:

This one weighs 793 pounds, with 120 pounds of tongue weight:

Pushing both:

Yeah, that definitely looks like it's tougher than sone review's. Would have saved me sone time if I saw this before. Thanks for sharing

You're welcome. I wish that I had taken pictures of the tilt trailer when I was pushing it loaded with 700 pounds of these 16' long panels:

I can't imagine pushing two trailers. My head is hurting trying to understand how to steer! :stirthepot:

It is easier than I thought it would be.

Easier than backing up a hay wagon with a tractor.

But they follow well on the back, going forward:
