Abstract: A compensating hitch adapted to be coupled between a three-point draft system at the rear end of a wheeled tractor and the front end of a trailing earthworking implement which is wheel supported rearwardly of an earthworking blade thereof; the hitch including a link and lever array which functions to maintain the implement and its earthworking blade in a constant pre-set working position when the tractor traverses uneven ground, and which--with a conventional hitch--would cause the trailing implement and its blade to undesirably vary up and down from such constant pre-set working position.

Abstract: A hitch unit for pickup trucks which provides--in a somewhat turret-like, rear bumper-mounted, rotary array--three types of hitches (ball, hinged clevis, and rigid clevis) arranged so that a selected hitch may be manually, quickly, and without the use of tools, brought to an exposed or use position projecting rearwardly from the bumper. In each such position, the rotary array of the hitch unit is locked against accidental displacement.
