Tow bar

[rippinlips25]

I have a frabil flip over been looking for a hitch to pull with my snowmobile. What hitch works the best with a frabil?

U-bolt a gate hinge to the back of your snow mobile as a hitch, then build a tow bar out of aluminum conduit. Use carabineers to attach conduit to sled and to hitch

I have an Otter universal tow hitch adapter, https://www.otteroutdoors.com/product/universal-tow-hitch-adapter/, which I have mounted on a Frabil flip-over shelter, and use an Otter hitch bar, https://www.otteroutdoors.com/product/sled-tow-hitch-2/, to tow the shelter behind a snowmobile.  I use the same hitch bar to tow my small and medium Otter sleds. The manufacturer of your ATV or snowmobile probably has the equivalent of a trailer receiver and ball which is designed to attach to the rear of the vehicle so you can tow a sled or a trailer.  For example, see the tongues, receivers, and balls which Skidoo offers for its snowmobiles at https://www.ski-doo.com/shop/Accessories/bumpers_hitches_winches/hitches.html.

When I want to haul my Frabil flip-over shelter around on the ice manually, I tie a loop of rope to the cotter pins in the universal tow hitch adapter.
