Does anyone have plans for a quick hitch to trailer adaptor? I have a Speeco quick hitch and want to be able to hook up my quad trailer, boat, and travel trailer for moving arouind the yard without taking off the quick hitch. My brother-in-law owns a steel fab company so he should be able to make one but I would like a set of plans to show him what I would like to have made. Below Is the type I have for those not familiar with what the Speeco looks like.

Yea, that would work. Do you know if I can get plans for something like that? It would be a whole lot cheaper to have it made at my brother-in-law's shop than to buy and have it shipped to me.

There have been several pics posted of these hitches on various threads within the last couple months. Will do a search to see if any pop back up.
They are pretty simple, but I usually just raise the 3 ph and attach to the drawbar.

How about a cross drawbar with a ball mounted in it and a have your BIL make a cross drawbar lock similar to the one shown but that would engage your speed hitch to keep the drawbar from rotating?

I made a couple of these using a pre-made receiver, drawbar from TSC and a couple of pieces of angle iron.

I have no "plans", I just eyeballed everything. The first picture is how I built it the first time, the second and third is after I re-did it to hold suitcase weights.

"Thumbs up" on the suitcase weight holder, Kenny.
