Which compact tractor will move 5th wheel campers?

if you had a dolly made, or found one, you could always have it made so it mounts
on your lower 2 links, like a semi mount rotary mower. then you don't end up with
an extra pivot point.
tie that in with a quick hitch and it'd be a sweet setup!

I welded a channel across the top of my forks with a big hole drilled in for the pin and used it on the fel.

Maybe a dolly which is solid mounted to the 3 pt arms and the wheels would be crazy wheels. I am thinking something like the material collections cart JD has there is no pivot at the hitch and it rides on crazy wheels to carry the weight. Obviously the wheels would have to be pretty heavy duty but I think its doable.

I can get a 5th wheel converter used. They're reasonable. You guys think that will back ok?

something along these lines might work for you. have a fabrication shop make it up for you.


I move my 30 foot gooseneck with my front loader...but i have to use a good counterweight.

That looks like fun backing up. Almost as many pivots as backing a hay wagon behind a baler.

if you go with a dolly (which would be what i did first) do yourself a favor and build a hitch for your front end loader, really easy to back it that way.

How about building a dolly that hooks to the 3 point and has a caster wheel. That would back like a solid hitch.
