Does anyone have pictures or dimensions of their custom hitch?
What shape of metal did you use? C Channel, box, angle, etc.
What thickness of metal did you use? 1/8" 1/4" 3/8" 1/2" 3/4"
How long of a receiver tube did you use?
What various reinforcements did you make and why?
How far from the ground does a typical dump truck's pintle hitch sit?
How far from the ground does your standard pickup truck's receiver sit? (I know that one's pretty variable, my pickup's at the farm so nothing to measure right now)
Looking for a design to build a hitch on the back of a flatbed truck. I'd like to mount a pintle hitch along with a permanent 2" receiver underneath to cover my bases. Something that would be strong enough to haul a dozer on a tag trailer, even though most of the trailers are gonna be a lot lighter.
Any ideas?
