Big Sale Has Started - UPDATED 07-31-25 (01 Apr 2025)

As some of you know my dad passed away 2 months ago today, on May 31, 2025. I posted it in the Members Only section when it happened. Thanks to all of you who have offered kind words on the forum, with phone calls, and visits in person during this time.

The Big Sale is on but not like originally planned, it is a by appointment type of thing now. I don't have the manpower, or the desire to do a big event like originally planned, I just need to sell a lot of parts that are taking up too much space here. I have been told and believe we are overloaded with Wheel Horse parts like no one has ever seen. Peeps have already been coming in from different parts of the country and buying a lot of stuff due to seeing the sale page, and seeing we are the only Wheel Horse only business in the USA that does things on the scale we do. The sale will continue for awhile until I free up some more space but you may not want to wait too long as things are being sold every day and there are limits to how many of certain parts will be sold.

As it says on the page it is still under construction and the page isn't finished yet. I've had a ton of calls for parts and the Big Sale Page may help answer some questions about what is here before peeps call. I hope that page is also clear that we DO NOT SHIP anything... This is a by appointment type of thing now. Be sure to call before you come to make sure the day isn't already full with peeps scheduled to come in, and make sure what you want is still available.

Just made a receiver hitch for the heavy trailer and thought I would put it on here.  As mentioned before I have to clean out a barn I was using at the farm and there are about 80 or more tractors in it among other things and this will be a nice back saver for loading them all.  Once here the forklift can handle the rest. 

The hitch setup is bolt on and easy to make.  It could even be moved to other trailers if need be, just 4 bolts holding it on.   Drill other trailers for it then it can be moved around.  

The 3" angle iron was overkill but it was an old used piece in the shop that got cleaned up.  The receiver tubes were from new stock, they are all being made here now because they want almost $20 for a 6" premade one and I can make 4 of them for that...    The one used on the trailer was a little short of 6", it's what was leftover from the larger piece.

It was made out of a piece of 3" x 10" x 1/4" angle iron, the leftover 2 1/2" x 5" x 3/16 tube, and 4 grade 9 bolts (overkill lol) to bolt it on.

The center bolt toward the front ended up being left out.  I thought it was more important to add a brace in the center like on the sides that was never there.  It's plenty strong enough to pull whatever you want up on the trailer.  Before + after pics below.

I'll put the winch mount setup in another post so it can be found more easily later...
