Handy Devices

Noah Walder, Mitchell, South Dakota, needed a way to quickly hitch and unhitch a gooseneck or bumper hitch trailer while moving them around with his tractor. He used 3/8-inch steel to build the frame holding the ball and 1-inch steel to support the frame and attach the assembly to the tractor hitch. With this, he easily hitches the tractor to a gooseneck or bumper hitch.
