Towing chipper with a ring hitch.

Anyway I've got this GM220 and it came with a ring hitch. I've never had one before, what a PITA! Slamming and banging, a real nightmare. So we have to do a job a couple of hours south of me starting Monday, and I wasn't looking forward to the drive, so the groundy had the idea of wrapping an old inner tube round the ring, zip tie it in place and a bit of grease to prevent rubbing. I took it up the road and it's as smooth as silk....well almost.

What's the deal with ring hitches? Are they always this bad? Why have them?

 

 

Ps I'm aware what it looks like!
