john deere rear weights

[Ed Junior]

I normally don't follow the john deere forum in here. but recently my grandfather passed away and left me a john deere 50. it runs great I hope to restore it and show in his honor. I found rear wheel weights what is a fair price for them? thanks for the help.

Rear wheel weights off a 50 for $35 each? What, in 1975? I just saw some "Z" weights sell in Barron WI for $320 a pair last month. Those were the most I've ever seen them sell for and doubt many will sell that high.

Figure on $100 to $150 per weight for A3404Rs. "Proper" weights for your 50 will have an ovalish shape hole in the middle. The chunks cut out were so you can adjust the wheel with up to 2 wheel weights bolted on. They also come in what is called a "Z" weight. They are made to be able to adjust the wheels with more than 2 weights on. There's also a large hole Z weight to be able to get over a hub and a round hole weight for wheatland tractors.

Also figure that you're gonna be gouged for $6.29 a bolt at deere if you want the right bolts

I put a set of rear weights on my 53 60 off a 5410,I know this sounds all wrong, and it is in a way,,but they fit nice and they don't cover up my large holes in my hubs, which are signature for the early ones..

Lately seems like $100 a piece with bolts.There are four different styles. Some have same #.Round,oval,smaller hole,and larger hole that came out later. Will all work but think round or oval is probably correct if that is your intent.There are some after market ones and they usually sell for $25 less unless no one notices they are different.

I would keep them with the tractor. Soon as you sell them you will wish you had them an besides it will pull more with them on it if you ever want to play in the dirt. With all the implements going to scrap pretty soon there won't be anything to use a old tractor for except look at.
