No, but I have been thinking about it for several years now. 

 

I wanted to add a receiver hitch to the back of my tractor then make several things that will mount to that.

This is what I did. It worked like a champ. I had the cargo carrier and added the 2" receiver.

That is nice! I have been thinking of a similar setup for a sprayer.

Very nice setup. Darn, now I have no excuse. I do like your setup better than a trailer spray.

 

Let us spray.  :handgestures-thumbupright:

Is there any blow-back on to the tractor with the sprayer being that close? I have heard on other forums of it attacking the finish.

No. The boomless nozzle doesn't have a very fine spray so it doesn't drift much. Plus it's about 3 or 4' from the back of the tractor.   One thing you will need is weight for the front of the tractor. It gets pretty light with that 16 gallon sprayer back there.

Craig, that is kinda what I had in mind to do. I have mine as a pull behind but I was thinking to add a fixed boom and thought it might work better to have sprayer mounted to tractor. Weight is definitely a factor. I thought about maybe swivel wheels on the dolly while having the unit attached to the tractor so it dos not act like a trailer with a tongue.
