A hitch-borne vehicle transport releasably bears the entire weight of a vehicle having at least one pair of coaxial wheels separated by an axle, upon a box-end trailer hitch receiver. The axle is engaged and captured while the vehicle is on the ground by clevises coupled to a transverse bar parallel the axle and pivotingly borne through a cantilever by the box-end trailer hitch. The part of the vehicle adjacent the axle is hoisted off the ground to an elevated position. The vehicle is then pivoted about the axle to an upright position, where it is retained by engagement of the vehicle's graspable body member into a cantilever-mounted clevis. Thus held, the vehicle's entire weight is transmitted through its axle and graspable body member to the box-end trailer hitch for safe, convenient transport or storage.
