FRONT MOUNTED RECEIVER ?

antlers125 · May 8, 2015

Anybody have ideas & photos of a front mounted receiver hitch that bolts on in front of the brush guard of a compact tractor?

There was a guy on eBay selling bolt on for the Kubota BX series so you may want to check there.

I "jockey" a lot of trailers around with my tractor the easy way, with the 3pt. hitch. That eliminates the need to crank and adjust a trailer jack (and leaving the tractor seat) that would be required with a ridgid mount reciever type hitch.
I did make one for my tractor but it is used in the winter to mount the lift cyl. for a snowplow. Are you looking to occasionally move a trailer while not having to remove a rear implement?

Yea, I have a finish mower attached & need to jockey a couple of trailers in the process.
