Receiver-Type Pickup Converted To 3-Pt. Hitch
 ✖  |
I took an old receiver-type hitch off an old pickup at a junkyard and built a 3-pt. hitch around it. I welded a 15-in. piece of tubing on top and braced it up real well with 1/2-in. flat stock. I bought a pair of 1 1/8 in. threaded pins for the drawbar pins. I cut a hole in the bottom so if I ever break a pin I could change it. It gave me a rugged hitch that will last a lifetime. I can insert a variety of hitches. It will even take a pintle hook. (Basil L. Powers, General Delivery, Stratton, Maine 04982 ph 207 246-3092)
