Yep!! Only I envision the vertical post sitting back a little away from the road, with a horizontal pipe coming out to where the box is now. On this horizontal piece, fabricate a swinging vertical post, with the short end on top supporting the mailbox, and the long end hanging down with the counterweight..

If you wanted to be fancy, you could add a provision to pin it into place for summer use, when it didn't need to swing.

"Forget pounds and ounces, I'm figuring displacement!"

If we accept that: MBG(+)FGSF(=)HBG(F1)
And we surmise that: BG(>)HBG(F1) while GSF(<)HBG(F1)
Would it hold true that: HBG(F1)(+)AM500(x)q.d.(=)1.5lbGRWT?
PB answer: It depends.
