Trailer hitch I made for my John Deere LX277 to move a trailer around.
I hooked on to my neighbors pickup bed trailer, full of brush, and hauled it to my burn pile.

The bottom is just a pin to go in hitch hole
Two bolts on braces on the sides
The 1/2 bar at top slides out, for removal

Cost $0.0

Zero...I had everything I used.

Couple I added to my Murray mower after I removed the deck due to major issues with it.
Front hitch mount close up 2.jpg front mount bolted to a metal plate that is bolted to the mower's frame. I use this to mount a small winch when needed.
Rear mount 2.jpg rear mount, use the ball to tow a small trailer and the pin hole to mount a tow behind mower, small plastic bodied trailer or spreader.
Rear mount 3.jpg rear mount I can also mount the winch to the rear by pull the hitch pin out and removing the rear piece.
