I think if you were willing to drill 4 roughly 5/8" holes in the rear frame rails, you could make a front bracket work on the rear. You would be outta luck on using a 3pt hitch(if you have one) but at the least the front brackets are much more available. I welded a bracket on my front mount so it bolts to my sleeve hitch on the back, it worked out well

Are you referring to the Bracket for the 3 Pt that holds 40# Suitcase weights?

Thanks Sam Ed and KnottyRope.Ilove this website always get such good ideas and info. I did see the bracket on ebay.May have to pay his price. But think i will look into front to rear option suggested by sam first. Thanks for your time and input guys.

I picked one up at a tractor swap 2 years ago for 125 since it had a poorly welded on ball hitch.

deals are around if your patient or you could make one if you have a welder

My parts manual shows the rear weight bracket for a 318 as part number AM39875 . It looks just like the one shown in the Ebay add. I have one of these with a bracket that will hold 6 weights. Is this the same as the one for a 316 ? The one I have looks like this:

If these will work, let me know. It's sure less that Ebay....
