Ball Hitch Mounted On Front Of Deere 425 Garden Tractor
The ball hitch I mounted on front of this Deere 425 garden tractor really comes in handy to move trailers around my yard. A hydraulic-operated cylinder raises and lowers the hitch. I’ve got a lot of old 2-wheeled planters and cultivators, and the ball hitch lets me move them around without getting off the tractor.
  The hydraulic cylinder mounts on a flat steel plate that I bolted on front of the tractor. I pull one pin to remove the cylinder and another to remove the steel plate. The cylinder hooks up to a hydraulic outlet that I added on back of the tractor. (Loren Kalkwarf, 2020 225 St., Garner, Iowa 50438, ph 641 923-2708; alkalk@q.com)
