I thought of that, but I don't think it would handle the stress. Also, there isn't enough room for the blade and me. I guess I could ride it! I am going to save the original hitch instead of hacking it up. All it is is 2" Sch 40. I have some laying around. Going to weld some larger pipe sleeves where it won't slip up and down, unbolt one bracket and slide it in, rebolt everything, then weld my arm(s) to that pivot. I am going to make it where it floats or can be locked and also angles to shed material. I have some diy wheel weights that will bolt to the other set of offset wheel/hub mounts. I filled them with about 40 lbs of lead then welded the hole up. I had barbell weights, but they clanged around too much. My tires are foam filled so I already have 40 lbs each side. I am going to buy the drawbar for the Aldo equipment with the quick hitch on it already. That way I can pin the blade up and use it for a cultivator or other aldo tools later. The wheel weights were pretty easy to fab. I cut 4 circles out (can't remember the size), tacked 1/8" flat bar spacers in them, then curved a piece of flat around them and tacked as I went. Then went back and welded solid leaving the end sticking out. Filled with lead and let cool, bent the end over and finished welding. I also put 1/4" tabs to bolt to the set of holes on the rim.
