ABSTRACT:
A mountable hitch for converting a normally fixed mounted material hauling device for use with a fifth wheel capable vehicle. The mountable hitch includes a mountable frame assembly selectively engaging the vehicle. A load carrying device is coupled to the frame assembly. The load carrying device is for containing material when the mountable frame assembly engages the vehicle and the load carrying device is transported by the vehicle. A securing assembly selectively engages the load carrying device. The securing assembly is coupled to the vehicle whereby the securing assembly inhibits the load carrying device and the mountable frame assembly from sliding off of the vehicle when the load carrying device engages the securing assembly.
