Home-Built Hitch On Tractor Drawbar

Home-Built Hitch On Tractor Drawbar HITCHES Hitches 22-1-32 John Cooke, Monroe, Conn.: "When I got tired of hitches twisting on my drawbar, I bent a piece of 1/4 by 2-in. scrap iron into an inverted V shape with a flattened apex. I torched a 3/4-in. dia. hole in the flat to accept a Cat # 1 pin and welded the free ends to the drawbar. I welded two balls and a pin to accept a pintle hitch to the bar. Pinned in the top, it has enough movement to prevent bending and raises and lowers on the lift arms almost perfectly."
