Here's how to turn a 2 wheel wheelbarrow into a back saving attachment by way of a simple removeable drawbar that allows the cart to be dumped while still attached to the back of a tractor. Low cost/no cost, great functionality.

My WB looks just like yours. Its a 1995 from Home Depot. The tub broke last year, but I plan on making a wooded deck and a wooden front stop to carry sq hay bales. Adding your clever hitch would aid using the tractor too.

Sort of like this cart using the wheelbarrow parts.

I'll be curious to see how this'll work with a single wheel wheelbarrow.

My tractor came with a front end loader, making a wheelbarrow obsolete. I still use my wheelbarrow to move horse manure to the compost pile, but the tractor handles it from there.

have an earlier version of this 4wd power barrel. couldn't live w/o it landscaping around my pond banks. far more effective than trying to rig something up w/my manual 1 wheeler. regards
