Default skid wheels attached to bike hitch

I had the same problem with a steep drive way after I installed the Trailmanor bike hitch. The bike hitch contacted the concrete first rather than the factory installed skid plates. I installed some Paxtron swivel skid wheels which attach to the 2.5 inch hitch bar at either end and this works fine. I had to drill through the gavanized metal liner for my sewer pipes to attach the top plate of the assembly and cut a slot in the front side of the liner to allow it to deflect downward about 1/4 inch to the top of the hitch bar. Otherwise all went well and I know longer will here the scaping going up and down the driveway. I tried to attached a before and after photo but not sure they are attached but will send in any case.
