Kieth,email is sent.Brendon(and anyone else) The rake hitch is made from 'scrap iron'.About 18 ft of span.enough for the center rake to fit comfortably underneath. There is approxamately 5/6 ft of ground crearance.The main beam is pieced together.Part is a 3" hollow tool(cultivator) bar.The rest is two lengths of 4" channell iron boxed .4" square tube would provide sufficent strength to carry it.The rear upright is the rest of the 3"sq bar. The front upright is 2 1/2" hollow square. The axle is from a 2 ton truck,flipped upside down for clearance.A 'standard' 8"stroke farm cylinder is attached to the tie rod for steering.2 full lengths(21' each) of 1/2" black pipe(3/8 or 1/4 pipe would have been sufficent) were formed over the top to carry hydralic oil.There are diagonal braces for strength.All other parts were just obtained from the iron pile.I did however have to add a 'web' under for added strength.There were no plans',no other hitches to look at.I just saw one once while driveing 65mph down the hiway.It was by the seat of my pants.LOL Please feel free to call if you have more questions (970)874-3973(home) Steve
