jhunsch 20 #2 Posted July 4, 2012 Hope this help with making a rear bracket. There are off course many ways to do it, here are some photos of what I came up with. It works well for me, doesn’t look great but works. For me it had to be low cost and hold up under the pull, it does that. One of the club rules is, (The pulling hitch, wheelie bars must be able to like the tractor with all the weight on it for the class you pull in). It’s a good thing to do for safety. No one wants to find out on the track that it cant take the strain. How ever lifting is not the same as the pull, this just gives a good idea of strength. I also have a B80 and really enjoy taking it to pulls. I like being around all the good folks out there & the fund raisers the club in involved in. I call my B80 RUSTY and it was put together on a Low Budget. I am happy how it pulls. Good luck making your puller. Please post some pictures as you go. I hope the links work. Jeff I recently replaced the 8hp kohler with a 20hp kohler. I pulled against this Allis Chalmers and we both had a full pull in the 2000lb class I think I weighed in @ 1905 lbs. In the pull off he beat me by 6 feet. Not bad for 8hp kohler he had 22hp. It took almost 4 min to get down the track, My B80 turned some heads that day. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
