Tractor weight transfer mechanism

A weight transfer system for a tractor to improve traction of the tractor, the weight transfer system comprising:

• a front lift arm pivotably mounted to the tractor;
• a front accessory mounted to the front lift arm, the front accessory located generally forward of a front of the tractor;
• a mounting bracket secured to a frame of the tractor;
• a spring including a first end and a second end defining a spring axis, the first end attached to the front lift arm;
• and
• an actuator including a forward end and a rear end defining an actuator axis, the spring axis positioned substantially parallel to the actuator axis, the forward end mounted to the second end of the spring and the rear end mounted to the mounting bracket, the actuator actuable between an extended position and a retracted position, the forward end spaced a first distance from the front of the tractor in the extended position and a second distance from the front of the tractor in the retracted position, the first distance being less than the second distance, the actuator movable to a plurality of positions between the extended position and the retracted position.
