trailer moving
I'm looking to make something up to hook to my tractor loader bucket that I could pick up the front of my trailers and move them around. Any one made such a thing? Something with a ball on it.

The tractor isn't mine. Mine is on a Kubota. I didn't have a picture handy so I grabbed this off the internet. Yes. It looks like the tire needs some air. Not sure what it is.
Mitch, mine is a three cylinder tractor. I've used it to move boat trailers, enclosed trailers, landscape trailers, dump trailer and a box trailer. Much nicer moving a trailer facing forward.
ha, I did miss the spelling on that! :) My Dad never thought of using the front loader on ours for that purpose, but I can say that it would not have been very easy to maneuver with that much weight on it, as I got the rear wheels off the ground many times with just a full load in the bucket.. Having that much weight on just the front axle, plus those little tires would not have worked for our trailer.
Hitching it up to the rear, made it stable and balanced for manuerving even in the tightest of places and angles (we didn't move that thing around on a level plane).
Anyway, it did help me learn how to back up trailers into just about any space it can physically fit into. :)
