I agree with Karl. Those Worksavers and Saginaw hitches look like Ag School freshman projects. The problem with both is they use mild steel and not enough of it.
I am selling a used Worksaver tomorrow. I had to straighten two parts of it.
Having said that, Worksaver has line drawings and parts illustrations if you want to get some ideas.
I build my own hitches for tractors that have never seen anything more than a drawbar. I have fast hitches on a 650 and W-400. I use as many row crop IH parts as possible. That usually means the rockshaft, wishbone (bail), and lift links. These are engineered parts and they hold up. I suggest that you go to a few tractor shows and see how the mfgs do it. Then go to a salvage yard and buy some parts.
