Hey folks.
I got a gravel sifter on a kinda sorta good deal involving a DC welder.
It had a set of cast weights along a conveyor belt used to separate rocks from the stream hung from a 1 1/4" solid shaft.
I have been pulling logs with my 8N and have trouble keeping the front end down at times so....
I robbed the weights from the machine along with the shaft and fabricated a bracket out of 2'x1/4 angle and bolted it to the bumper.
The weights rotate on the shaft and can be swung up to access the front ball hitch.
Total weight is about a hundred pounds but I think it might help a bit.
Comments welcome.
