Traction weights for light trucks and utility vehicles

摘要

A traction weight assembly, for mounting traction weights on a utility vehicle, has a weight bar that is inserted into a tubular receptacle. The tubular receptacle is secured to the vehicle frame. A retainer pin is inserted through a retainer pin passage through the tubular receptacle and an aligned adjustment bore through the weight bar. Traction weights are mounted on a portion of the weight bar that extends to the rear of the tubular receptacle. A retainer plate is attached to the weight bar by at least one bolt that clamps the traction weights between the tubular receptacle and the retainer plate. If needed a spacer is provided between the tubular receptacle and the traction weights.
