Here is my 200 lb weight box as also posted in the "Let's see your IH cubs!" section. Cost $9 in Sakcrete, and random parts in my garage. I have a 1/2 inch bolt that goes into the hitch and sticks 3 inches into the concrete, then I used old hanger wire to ties all of my bolts together, it acts like rebar in concrete. Then, the angle iron is attached to the inside of my fender to help old it. I also at the last minute threw in a light duty hitch. Then, I mixed up the Sakcrete and poured it in and let it sit for a week. I can jump up and down on it making the front wheels bounce and nothing has broke. It makes the front end lighter, but I will be using it with a blade on the front anyway for snow. $9 for 200 lb of weight is the best price per weight I could find.

Wow that is a lot of weight.

I was going to build one before the snow flies, I have a lot of old brake rotors kicking around so I might just build something with some small dia tubing sticking up that I can slide the rotors down onto. I am only looking to add 50 to 75lbs. I can imagine needing much more for a thrower on an almost level driveway
