The name is Tom Ruprecht or n1defan. He and I started building these hitches 4+ years ago and there's still demand for them. Would have to say we have sold well over 200 of them and orders keep coming in. Tom took it over by. Himself a few years ago as I took a different job and spar time is hard to find. Biggest attachment I use on this hitch is 5ft York rake from a category one 3 point hitch. I use a wench to lift it and need to add 200lbs to the front of the tractor for good steering. Works great you canfind a link to reach Tom in the vendor section. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
can whlvr 993 #6 Posted February 18, 2016 I knew you were making these hitches scott,i just didn't know if you still were or not and I didn't want to say your name without permission or knowledge if you were still manufacturing these quality hitches,i must admit I fabbed my first one several years ago with an old reese hitch I had from a lease truck that went back,ive made 4 since then but I borrowed your idea of using the factory hitch bar for extra support,very good idea,and keep on producing those fine hitches 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevasaurus 22,705 #7 Posted February 18, 2016 I am the proud owner of one of Scott's hitches. Here is a thought for an attachment that I have been tossing around for use at some of the shows I go to. 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stevasaurus 22,705 #12 Posted February 19, 2016 Scott, I am thinking you could back up this horse up to the picnic table and do steaks and potatoes and onions in foil...where ever there is shade. Check out this table and see what you think. Saturday AUG 4th Show Pic's Notice the wheels on the table. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
