Abstract
The three point hitch mounting system allows a pick up truck to be fitted with a three point hitch so that the pick up truck can be used to transport and operate common agricultural and industrial implements such as mowers, plows, and tillers. In enhanced embodiments, the mounting system provides for a stand that allows the hitch to stand freely when not mounted on a truck, a lift device to allow control of the depth and height of the implement, and a power source and power takeoff ('PTO') for driving powered implements, such as a mower.
