3pt hitch hauler

[fbenevento]

i have been looking at this 3pt hitch hauler that Northern tool sells for a while.. it got mixed and old reviews.. i was wondering if anybody has one.. or has something similar or even knows of a manufacturer that sells something like this.

here is the link to it..

Just build one. I built mine from a TSC carryall frame. All total it cost about $200.

i find the dump bed on the hauler pretty attractive...seems to be pretty versitile. making one out of a carry-all did cross my mind but it wouldn't dump...

You could lower it to the point where the top link pin is free. Remove the pin then lift your 3ph. It will dump. Not as convenient. But it might work for you.

You can dump it manullly to a point, but if you have a hydraulic toplink (which I do not have) it is a lot easier...

yeah i don't have a hydraulic top link either.. 1 of the reasons for this would be for hauling wood. i gave thought to the carry-all with plywood or something building a box.. but most only had a 1000lb capacity.. this thing has a 2500lb capacity plus the dump.. and its a 6x4 box.. even without dumping.. i'd bring it up full and set it down on a stand.. and take it off..

idk.. i will probably get one.. i just wish somebody here had some alternatives or experience with this..

you already have a dump box on the front of your tractor. Spend your $ on the welding equipment.

Here's mine on a TSC Carryall. Just built over a pallet on the bottom forks. The back opens up either half or all the way.

I made my TSC carry-all a hand-dumper.

Not sure if you can make it out in my avatar or not, but I've got a box blade on the back of my B7800 with the rippers turned backwards to provide a cradle for a piece of plywood (rear gets supported by the blade) to form a bottom for loading the box blade up with firewood. And if you look further back you'll see I'm towing a truck hood with wood on it. Of course, the loader bucket is also filled! My early days of handling firewood.
