Bought this trash can hitch carrier thing for the sxs. Didn't lift the cans high enough and they would drag still. Plus it put all the weight on a small area and some reviews said it would punch through eventually. It wasn't very stable either and the can would flop side to side.
Welded on a chunk of scrap tube to solve all 3 issues
