3 point hitch trailer adapter
,April 24, 2013
By Jayvee
from Outdoor tent/shops
"I use this product for moving trailers with ball type hitches attaching this device to the 3 point hitch of my utility John Deere tractor. It is light enough to hitch up by one person, is highly weather resistant and is robust enough for even very heavy loads---basically to the limit of the lifting capacity of the 3 point hitch. One of the most useful things about a hitch like this is that it is possible to simply back up and position the ball under the trailer, even if the trailer is only a few inches off the ground, pick up the tongue with the 3 point and adjust the height (can be used to drain a boat for example). I have used this for many years and it has paid for itself many times over, undoubtedly saving multiple back injuries. Highly recommended item and probably a must-have for easy moving of trailers of all kinds."

Versatile 3point hitch setup
,April 23, 2013
By Bully
from Central Wisconsin
"I bought this for an old tractor to tow various trailers around the woods while sawing wood. It is built super strong and also worked great for hitching a chain to for ripping out old tree stumps! Easily lower it down or up as needed to add some lifting capability for both dragging logs or towing trailers. I also used a 3 in 1 type hitch receiver to quickly change its function for trailering or towing oddball hitch types."

3-point huitch adapter
,August 13, 2012
By gmiller
from central MI
"I used this adapter as a starting point for a 3-point hitch sprayer. The sprayer assembly is built to slide into the receiver. It is working very well. the adapter is also being used to haul a large wood chipper around the farm with the tractor, making it easier to position. the 3-point hitch allows me to level the chipper easily in hilly or uneven ground. very useful tool!"

You'll wish you'd bought one sooner!
,May 19, 2012
By TrueBlueFan
from Southeast Michigan
"I have three trailers, each requiring a different size hitch ball. With this simple but handy adapter I just slip in the various hitches I use on my tow vehicles and can move all my trailers around quite easily with my tractor. Note that there is some minimal assembly required, i.e., the pins for the lower links must be screwed in and secured to the frame using the lock washers and nuts supplied. This takes less than 5 minutes, however, and requires only a larger adjustable wrench and screwdriver. Note also that this unit will put the trailer tongue weight further rearward than a standard drawbar, so when moving heavier trailers make sure your tractor has adequate weight up front (e.g., front weights, cement blocks in the bucket, etc.) Otherwise, this is a very useful item that will make moving trailers around the yard very easy!"

"If you don't have one of these, stop what you're doing and order one! Plain, simple, light weight and easy to use - I wouldn't fuss with trying to jury-rig a hitch adapter when you can get one of these and make life good when it comes to moving anything on a trailer."

By aviator22

"I use this adapter all the time.
It's especially helpful when used with my dump trailer. I can pickup the trailer, set it down, load it, pick it up again, move it elsewhere and dump it all without leaving the tractor seat.
It's also helpful when trying to get my big 25 foot trailer into tight spots - the tractor is so much more maneuverable than a pickup.
I use mine with a quick hitch for fast installation and removal."

"This hitch adapter was exactly what I thought it would be. Works perfect and allows trailer hook ups using the 3 point lift instead of getting off of the tractor and manually lifting the trailer or cranking the trailer jack down to the tractor.
Much better than using the tractor tow bar."
