Sleeve hitch yolk dimensions?
 
I am oversees right now but still have access to a machine shop. i want to make some sleeve hitch yolk adapters like below. i have some scrap 4" box tubing 1/4 wall. that gives me the 3 1/2 id i think i need. how wide are these adaptors normally? this looks wider than the one on my brinley box blade. why do they put three holes up top? i have only used my middle hole so can tighten my 2 bolts against it. i need to make the draft plate too. how far back from the front edge should i put my 5/8 hole? what is the normal bolt spacing from a brinly hitch, the 2 jam bolts? im sorry for so many questions but i dont have access to cubs in the desert.

Then why do you need to make a Briny hitch?? :bigthink:

The three holes, I believe, are for different moldboard plow operations to get the plow set up correctly according to the space between whatever size tires you are running. Different distances between tires require different pin holes to be used and one may even have to flip the hitch on the plow in some instances. The complete set up instructions explaining this are here on site in the manuals section IIRC.

I take it you are military??

Glad I am not the only one wondering the same thing.
