I have been looking for a hitch support for my lawn and garden tractor for over 2 years. I've seen some that had support brackets on the side, but that got in the way of my packer. From the age of 60 it becomes increasingly difficult to lower the trailer hitch onto the ball, especially since I have a wheel jack on my trailer and have to hold the trailer down by folding the wheel jack. All I needed was a 4" prop and when I found it from P&M Fabrication I was thrilled. It came with two mounts and because of my bag I had to install the mount under the hitch on the back of my tractor. There was no ideal, but if there is a desire, there is a way! I even added 2 5/16"x 1" bolts to the 2 holes on the main hitch support bracket. I tried it after mowing the yard and had no problems with my packer or towing my 5' x 8' 2500# payload trailer. As a side note, I posted it on my Facebook page and my friend at home saw it. , bought it and installed it on my John Deere driver! Thank you P&M!
