thomastractorsvc Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Awesome,What are the cut outs for with the bar across them is that for the safety chain? Did you put an electric brake controller on it?

farmer52 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Leslie,Excellent job on fabricating the hitch. Better to be 1000% overbuilt than "underbilt". How about a pic from the hitch/trailer end?When do you want to make one for my MH?

mack mhe9 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 The more weight you add to the rear the better it will ride. I've noticed with mine when I pull a car trailer how it changes the handling. Nice work. Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/35491-hitch-plate-coming-together/#findComment-245356 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vladislav Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 If the water jet guy still have the programm in his machine you can offer such the equipment to the hobby crowd.Don't forget the discount for the community The red truck with the trailer looks great in the street Quote Никогда не бывает слишком много грузовиков! leversole 11.2012 Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/35491-hitch-plate-coming-together/#findComment-245415 Share on other sites More sharing options...
