A while back I noticed a few people asking about these hitches on a Facebook page, thought I’d have a go at making some to see if I could sell any. Here’s how far I’ve got.
First job was making a jig to put the 90 degree bend in some 10x50mm bar.
needed some 1” square bar to fit in the hardy hole of my anvil.
This is the jig I made
The round bar fits in the pritchel hole to keep it sturdy
Works a treat
All the same
Next hurdle was putting the cranks in the bars, I made up an attachment for our hydraulic press
9 tons of force to put these bends in
