I was looking to put a front end ball hitch on my sp800? I havent done alot of research yet but was hoping someone could offer a litttle advice. It doesnt have to be a reciever style, but that might be ideal. I have the front brushguard and am considering a plow sometime down the road, not sure if this matters??
Thanks for any help?

just curious, why would you want to put a front hitch on?

 

They work good for putting trailers in the water, you dont have to look over your shoulder while backing and steering. Where I launch boats with the atv the beach is right next to the trailer.

 

got it, thanks

 

I will have to try it with my boat and trailer as soon as the snow melts. Not sure my 500 is big enough though

 

Haven't run into anything like this for an ATV but they are somewhat common for pickups... the front hitch is VERY handy for placing a trailer into tight spots. I would guess that this may be a project for the local welding shop if you have one available...may also want to consider beefing up the front springs to handle the extra tongue weight on the front end, i.e. spring donuts.

 

Montana Jack's makes a front and rear reciever hitch for mounting a winch but it's expensive and you probably can't get just the part you need. This will give you an idea how it's made and maybe you can make one. http://www.montanajacks.com/in...n=VIEWPROD&ProdID=1064
