This practical weight hitch system comes complete with all mounting hardware and brackets—you simply provide a standard 5-gallon bucket from your local home improvement store to create the perfect counterweight. The system bolts directly to your trailer tongue, with upper brackets that attach to each side of your tractor's frame, creating a stable mount that can be customized to fit various frame widths.

The Universal Weight Hitch offers tremendous versatility in how you add counterweight. Fill your bucket with gravel, sand, or concrete for adjustable ballast weight. Alternatively, use concrete edging blocks or patio pavers that can be easily stacked to achieve your desired weight. When not being used for counterbalance, the empty bucket serves as a convenient tool caddy for gardening implements, extending the utility of this practical attachment.

Quick-release latches allow for easy removal of the bottom plate when not needed, while the integrated trailer tongue preserves your tractor's towing capability. Perfect for balancing front-mounted attachments like the Johnny Bucket or Johnny Plow, this weight hitch is an essential addition for garden tractor owners who want to maximize their machine's stability and performance.
