Hitch Tube and Ball Mount Solution for Front End Loader to Move Trailer

Question

Question:

Want to weld a vertical receiver hitch on top rail of my hay fork mount on the front end loader of my tractor. Then need a ball that will in and pin to the receiver. Will just be used to move empty trailers around making it easier to park them in tight spaces. Would like a 2inch and a 2 5/16inch ball so I can move regular and gooseneck trailers.

For a hitch opening to weld to your tractor the Combo Bar 6" part # E-9 would be a great solution for that. Then for a ball mount that has all three main sizes and even a clevis hook if ever needed the part # RP47FR would be a great solution that would cover everything.
