RAM 22 #1 Posted June 30, 2020 Hello, I have a 414-8 I would like to put a 2" receiver hitch on. I see awesome hitches as I look through pictures. I like the type that allows use of the rear front plow hitch and also has braces that attach to the drawbar pin. So bolted to the axle and pinned to the bar. Looks really strong. Who is offering these for sale currently? Ron Wheel Horse of Course! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RAM 22 #4 Posted June 30, 2020 Thank you for the response. I saw a hitch made a few years back by Scott (n1???)? Are you fellas familiar with that hitch? Is it still being made? The one you recommended does look very good. Ron Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevasaurus 22,708 #5 Posted June 30, 2020 I have one of the hitches that Scott's buddy made. It is excellent as well. Scott is smoreau...his buddy is n1defan. I am not sure they are doing those hitches yet. Maybe contact @Funengineer (Dave) he may know. I want to say Lowell's are pretty much the same plan. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RAM 22 #8 Posted July 1, 2020 I ordered the first one you mentioned from Lowell. I may order one of the front hitches as some point also. I have looked at both of these designs several times over the years and am finally taking the plunge. I just sold one of my other brand tractors - a Case 442. I am concentrating on only Wheel Horse going forward. I have three by the way a 310, 414 and 315. Love them all and want to equip them to do more. I am thinking of putting my Johnny bucket on the new rear receiver hitch. Fab a bracket to hold the bucket at an upward angle to retain whatever is in it. Basically use it as a powered wheel barrow. Will have my plow on the front. The 414 will be my utility machine. The others are mostly for mowing. The Johnny Bucket will also get a sand bag or two during winter for rear traction improvement plowing snow. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RAM 22 #12 Posted July 8, 2020 Well I got the hitches that you guys recommended. I had looked at them before, just needed a little encouragement . Both are really well made. The rear hitch was a little challenging to install. I did have to remove the right side rear wheel. Sent some pictures of one application for the rear hitch. Front will probably get a weight stack at some point as well as a winch. Also have some narrow wheels and Tri-ribs coming. I'm really enjoying this - wanted to do some of these things for quite a while. WH1 WH2 WH3 WH4 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
