Abstract: An article mounting assembly mounts an article to a horizontally extending ballast weight support of a utility vehicle. The mounting assembly includes a coupling member, a plate and a pair of brackets. The coupling member is attached to and spaced apart from the plate. Each bracket has a front end coupled to the coupling member and has a rear end coupled to the weight support. Each bracket is movably coupled to the coupling member so that the spacing between the brackets is adjustable. The article may be a container in which the plate forms a wall of the container, or the article may be a shelf or a component supported by the brackets.
