EZmover® Hitch System ***INTRO SPECIAL***

[Neophyte]

I ordered my EZmover several weeks ago and I was sure to specify an "iMatch Compatible" unit due to some of the comments in this thread. I live near Summit Fabrications so I picked mine up. I brought it back home, mounted it on my drawbar and tried installing it on my iMatch. To my dismay, it was not iMatch compatible. The top link hole was not high enough, which prevented the lower link bushings from resting in the lower hooks and also prevented the lower latches from closing.

I called the gentleman from Summit Fabrications and he told me it should have been iMatch compatible and he would make it right. I brought the unit back along with my iMatch so he could see the issue. He took some measurements and took my unit back to make the modifications.

I just received my EZmover back the other day and I tried installing it on my iMatch tonight. I'm happy to say that it now fits perfectly on the iMatch.

When ordering your EZmover, make sure you note that you want an "iMatch Compatible" unit. You may want to go even further and specify the upper link hole height. I measured my EZmover tonight and the distance from the bottom of the EZmover bracket to the center of the top link hole is approximately 14.5".

The folks at Summit Fabrication are good people and they stand behind their product. I would definitely recommend their product and I would purchase another product from them without hesitation. The gentleman from Summit Fabrication spent a good amount of time with me on this simple little sale. He could have easily taken the unit back and refunded my purchase but he chose to spend the time with me to make it right.

Every company can make mistakes, the measure of a good company is their ability to acknowledge and correct them.

Does the easy mover come with the bolts that fasten it to the drawbar?

Mine did.

Is this still available through TBN?
I see shirts and hats and tiltmeters and books, but I can't find this product.

I guess it is available still on the TBN site, just not where I was looking...
I figured it would be in the "store", but it is in a banner ad at the top of the attachments forum.

Any chance of a "free shipping" offer coming soon?

I didn't go back to find how I did it, but I ordered it from here for the discounted price. - this morning. I'll let you all know what and when I get whatever? There does appear to be some differences between the original site and the current site's offerings.

I did email them and ask for clarification. I'll pass that along also.

The following information received from them:

"We offer our Flexpoint Hitch and our EZmover Hitch on the TBN website in their product showcase:
https://www.imcuniverse.com/store/flexpoint.htm

Also, we do have two websites: Tractor Hitch-FLEXPOINT TRACTOR HITCH SYSTEM - Summit Fabrications,Inc.
and EZmover Tractor Hitch Because we make hitches to fit all size tractors, we use the different websites to appeal to different markets."

That would explain the whys of what appears where.

I guess there's no free shipping offer coming soon... I'll have to quit being cheap and pay the extra money!

I received the EzMover today. Packed as if it was a fragile clock - really packed! Came with the two bolts in question.

It is installed and already been put to use a couple of times this afternoon.

Ends ALL problems with a twisting drawbar.

I received my EZ Mover yesterday. I'm happy with the quality, but I haven't had a chance to tow the trailer with it yet. It was more than I wanted to pay, but I can't really help that I'm a cheapskate. I decided to buy a 22 dollar drawbar from TSC and leave it permanently attached to the EZ Mover.

Here's a photo with it installed with my 2 5/16 inch ball. Note the four pin wiring connector behind the seat so I can use the emergency flashers on the trailer with the tractor.

Don't understand the problems with a "light tonque". I always load my trailers tonque heavy to give more traction. I have a homemade unit that included a drawbar made of 3" channel iron. Welded a plate on each end for the pins. Also some brackets for the counter-weights. I can slide my 8000lb electric winch into the receiver (there is a battery bracket in front of the drawbar) and a chain bar (more channel with 3/8 slots) into the receiver on the winch for hauling logs. Draw them out with the winch, skid them to a landing with short chains, then load them onto my trailer with the forks and haul them to the woodshed. I have about 4 trailers that I always seem to need to relocate so being able to back under, lift the 3pth and leave (don't even have to latch the coupler on an MT trailer) is real handy. For a loaded trailer I mostly latch, depending on where I am going. If you keep the drawbar as low as possible when backing up the tonque seems to force the bar down, not up. Thank goodness for swing-away trailer tonque jacks. When I drop a trailer I normally set the jack on one of many 6x6s that I leave in my parking areas.

Wait, can't you just use the rockshaft lock valve (if equipped) to keep the 3ph from coming up when towing?

I know the manual says to use only the drawbar to tow, but my neighbor says he has been using his 3ph to tow for years just by using the hydraulic lock valve (the same valve used to control 3ph drop rate, just closed all the way). I was planning on doing the same once I get my iMatch receiver hitch.

Re: EZmoverｮ Hitch System ***INTRO SPECIAL***

I just got one of these, It was spendy ($35) to send to Alaska by priority mail, but it works great, bolts to your 3 pt hitch drawbar, comes with two 3/4" bolts. Pins to your top link, accepts common trailer hitch adapters same as your pickup. Keeps the hitch horizontal and stable while moving trailers.
