I really don't see how the physics works for that. At least with the tractors I've driven, there really isn't much weight ON the hitch. Instead, it's a pulling force, horizontal instead of vertical. That would press the front wheels into the ground, but the geometry is at right angles to the loads on a typical automobile trailer.
