Weight bracket

[Kirk-NJ]

Looking for suitcase weight bracket ideas to mounted to the hundred series tractor for pulling. Photos would help.
Thanks, Kirk

I initially fabbed up one that bolted to both the front and sides of the bolster out of 5 inch 1/4 bar stock. After couple of years I decided that it was overkill, and cut it down to just a rectangle that bolts to the front. It extends about nine inches. I have since found that the plate that bolts up needs to be heavier.

I don't have pics right now but will try. We made a plate the bolts to the trumpets bolt I think we used four bolts then took 1/2 in stock and put on the bottom of axle where the fenders bolt. The 1/2 flat bar sticks out the back of the axle then take 1/2 flat bar and connect the trumpet bracket to the fender bracket. This way ur suitcase weights sit just behind ur axle

I think I know what you mean but it's probably best to post a photo, if and when you can. I'm in no rush, I've got all winter to figure something out.
Thanks, Kirk
