i agree with that and in my case, i usually tow a truck to the pulls with the same hitch i hook too, so its gotta work for both.

Then if the rules say the hitch must be past the body...then mine will be 1/32 out past the body!!! There is few things in pulling that is free and one is leverage...use it to your advantage!
 
New Pulling Hitch

Here is a hitch that I made for a guy here in Wisconsin. Fully adjustable with just pulling a pin and just the turn on a screw. Let me know what you guys think.

Pretty slick, do they give him grief about the hook interfering with the adjuster?
 
No, no one has said anything. As long as you turn it so it is straight across there is about 3.75" clearance in there. Picture is deceiving(sp?). Next one will have a different loop on it so there is more room.
 
Here is one that I bought from a guy. The welds didn't penetrate good when he welded it and I broke the vertical piece loose from the gussets and the horizontal piece the second time I used it. Got it rewelded and all is good now. The first 2 pics are after it was rewelded.
I love this hitch...nice solid piece.

I think people are compensating for something when they build some of these hitches... who needs 18 adjustment holes? Or 75 lbs of steel used? Geez, simple works.
