  • Setup is a Snap. Bolts directly to your trailer tongue and the two upper supplied brackets attach to each side of your tractor's frame

 

 



Note:
Installation of the upper brackets will require you to cut them to the necessary length and to drill holes in the brackets and through the tractor's frame if there are no open frame holes present. See our example below. 

The sleeve hitch outside width is 13" and Inside width 12-1/2" This width may not match the width of your tractors frame. In this case the upper brackets can be offset outward or inward with washers or by other means to match the tractor's frame width to ultimately achieve a solid mounting.
