I have been looking all over for a sleeve hitch attachment for my lawn tractor.
Many of the site say that they cannon handle the possible weights. But there has to be someone who makes an aftermarket one.
I did see the johnny buckets which were pretty cool, but i could use the sleeve hitch more.
any suggestions.
thanks

The Deere LT160 is not designed to be used with a sleeve hitch and ground engaging attachments. You will most likely destroy the tranny in a short time if you try this, with the idea of using cultivating tools or a rear blade.

Thats what i was worried about, i need to put in a lot of water lines, and i just wanted to hook a small bade/trencher to the back and have it do all the work.

Johnny Products makes a universal sleeve hitch that will work with the LT160. But, as bontai said, you'll cook your tranny if you use it for ground engaging activities.
