Another day, another project. This time I tackle a project involving my Polaris Sportsman ATV. The stock receiver hitch that came on the atv was pretty cheap and ended up bending to the point that it broke right off. I'm going to take the chance to build a 2" receiver for the ATV using some scrap metal I've got kicking around the yard. On a side note, with the change in the season coming along, the snow is melting and more and more of my scrap metal is poking up through the snow! woot woot. Check out how I take you step-by-step through my fabrication of the 2" receiver for my ATV and check out some of the tools and techniques I use to make this receiver as strong as possible. Here we go!

I like your design. Mine is currently broken off and I’m going to do something similar with a 2” receiver tube.

Building a hitch for a 1993 350 Bigbear 4x4, old. It looked like you were welding GALVANIZED STEEL. Fumes are VERY bad for your health, use a fan to blow it away. You will be better off in the long run. Good Job

I agree with ya there. I try to grind the coating completely off just for those reasons.

Takes practice and the mini grinder is your best friend.

Found this while researching how to improve my hitch on the Sportsman 800. Groundhog Max actually makes a kit that bolts on underneath the factory hitch. It has a section of tubing that runs well under the frame. I may weld mine into place. I don't have much luck with bolt on stuff.

I can't believe Polaris can't sell a hitch to fit their ATVs

They sell the atv with 1 1/8” hitch mount but it bent quite quickly. They likely don’t want too heavy of a load on the machines

I was just at my dealership looking at a new 450 HO Utility and yes they sell a stupid looking 1.25-2” adapter that sticks out a extra foot and costs another hundred bucks, why is it so hard for them to put a decent hitch on their quads?

@ sandy This guy used to live next door to me while I was building a crappy little trailer with almost no welding experience. Few weeks later he was asking what was I doing, I told him building a trailer for whatever. He says "oh, I thought you were training to become a professional grinder". :-( :-( :-( Unfortunately I haven't gotten much better since.

haha I like that one. I always say that I"ll get better at grinding before I get better at welding

By the way the welding rod was hot, all the way to the holder, you might have the heat up way too much. Not criticizing, trying to help.

Thanks I appreciate the help. I’m still learning when it comes to welding
@johnvernon6328
@johnvernon6328 3 года назад
Usually from the rod stuck on the metal too long and not welding

How well did the new receiver work out? Have you got to test it out yet?
@sawingwithsandy
@sawingwithsandy 4 года назад
Hey Shane! The receiver has worked great. I’ve towed my 14 foot trailer around the yard with it and hauled full trailer loads of wood with it.

Yeah it really annoys me how ATV manufacturers produce quads without hitches. Everyone wants to haul stuff with their quad and is forced to do this kind of work in order to be able to pull something. Video would have been better without that brutal music by the way.

Yeah I hate the cheap hitches as well.
