Default Cub cadet sleeve hitch 1-7/8 ball

Just curious if any of you guys have ever seen a sleeve hitch ball. I got one from a gentleman a few years back. It is an inch and 7/8. It fits in the hole where you would hook up your brinly plow. I'm asking if anyone makes one of these in a 2" ball? I'd love to have one of each.

Jeff in Pa makes a thing that the ball bolts to and you just pin it on your adapter. Xtreme also makes the same thing. Pics are from Xtreme's web site.

I use a simple yoke with a CC draw bar bolted to it and a trailer ball in the draw bar that attach to sleeve hitch adapters. I have one with a 2" ball and one with just a draw bar. I"ll look for a picture.

Edit: Yes, like the pictures that Sam posted, except the draw bar bolts to the yoke rather than having the piece welded to it... Either way they work well.

The ball I'm referring to has a long neck on it. It goes in the brinly adaptor piece or "U" shaped piece. No other bracket is required. I'll try and post a pic later.

The ball goes in the same hole that the pin goes into

Yep I get that. Look for one of those balls that use a carriage bolt in the center.

If the bolt on the ball is narrow enough of a diameter you can just mount it directly to the triangular shaped hitch. We did that for years with dad's 125 and an IH carriage bolt centered ball.

Not too sure anyone makes those any more.
Might have to visit your flea market for a used one.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
