Here's a receiver with its basic dimensions that I built recently.
I think all the numbers are legible. The CAD package I have doesn't like to be converted to a .jpg file very well.

Thanks A Million ,This is the first drawing like this I have see!

it appears it is a stout one /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Yea, its probably stouter than need be. I had the 2" tubing lying around in the scrap pile. I don't mind though because I use it to move my 31' camper that has 700#-800# tongue weight.

I always was a fan of overkill...less problems I always say /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif


Now all I have to do is find someone to make it for me!

A local company makes them along with a lot of other
3 point equipment. They were around $50 last time I went
over there. They are:

Lowery Mfg Co.
145 Hwy 179
Boaz, Al 35980
(256)593-8842

Does Lowery make one with a receiver insert and a fifth wheel ball on top?

Utahmule, can't answer your question about Lowery, but Leinbach makes one with the fifth wheel ball on top. It also has the receiver on the bottom. I think it runs about $85, but could be a little off. An earlier post gave Leinbach's email address.

I have several implements from Leinbach, and like all of them. In my opinion, you can't beat their prices.

Do you think my TC-33 could move a 24 foot fifth wheel RV with one of these?

I wouldn't see why not. I move my bumper pull 31' TT with a 25HP Chinese import. By the way, it would be easy to add a ball to the top of the receiver that I built (see earlier post) for use with a fifth wheel.
