made a rear "weight" bracket

[wminmi 0]

Built a homemade weight "bracket" to add weight to the rear.....nothing real fancy, just some angle iron welded together to hold 2 bricks we had lying around. Still need some "support" brackets for it....after adding the bricks and trying it out, it seems shes bending just a bit. Nothing major, couple more pieces of angle and we should be good to go!

For your extra support, make hooks like the turbo hooks around the rear lift. I think the chipper/shreader had the same type of setup.

Looks similar to one I made for my 2110. Only I use a car battery,for weight,and starting purposes.:D

If you make a bracket to connect to your rear lift you'll have the OEM counter wt affect for front attachments and it should also solve your beeffing up need.

Yes incorporating it into the rear lift is nice for counter-weighting a blade or blower. This one I used last season was a hat-trick: 1. Rear Ballast 2. Snowblower Counterweight 3. A Place to Store 90ft of Chain!

Guys, That's an idea... Wouldn't it be great to add a chain winch on the rear? That way you've got something heavy for the weights and at the same time, have another function and pull you out of a bad situation? :)
