yeah but... pretty easy to attach to the blade, much harder to get to the undercarriage on the other end. But yeah that could be a good thing for switchback trails.

Thanks for the awesome photos that proves the value of your hitch. Great project results.

Maybe build a heavy duty "ski" (couple feet long X a foot wide) under the tongue. Build it so that when trailer is unhooked you can still get under it with your "hydraulic ball hitch".

Hmmmm Then flick the hitch ball lever closed with the bucket? I'll have to try that.:thumbsup:

This is a small, lightweight setup, that should be used for ~500 lbs or so. Way easier than using muscle.

If you had a hitch on each end, you could tow the trailer into a narrow dead end, unhitch, pick it up, swing it 180 degrees, then set it down ready to tow out.

Same idea, not quite a mini
