Many of you have asked and replied about putting a hitch receiver on the bucket. Some have welded, others like me have drilled and bolted. This is mine and I use it all the time to move our travel trailer in and out of our shop. It beats the beans out of trying to back it in.

I opted for drilling and bolting just because it was easier and I don't have a welder.

Yep. I got the idea from a farmer down the road who moves a monster boat in and out of his barn with a small Kubota. This makes moving our travel trailer around a cinch and exact placement is a snap. Once you're hooked up, you just put it where you want it once. The only difference is the wider swing when changing direction.

It works great.

Thanks,

Burt

great addition, if you have trouble seeing thru the bucket flip that ball hitch the other way and it will be easier to line up under the trailer coupler.
