loaded and ready

added liquid ballast to the w-9 rear tires yesterday. 5 lb per gallon calcium about 1000 lbs per tire . hauling stone in the dump trailer and she gets a little light in the hinney when dumping . i have iron weight, 8 in total at 220 lbs each but what a pain to put them on by yourself . i sat in the lawn chair having a coffee while the pump did the work.

and no the rear tire is not leaking fluid, i just washed both back tires before pulling in the barn

 

[rustred]

wow i didnt think the rear wieghts where 220 lbs. on my 660 i screw a long stud in the hole while having it at the top. makes life easier but they still are heavy. i got 5 on each side. you need at least one set on there ,lol. but nothing like calcium. i like your p. s. system too.

I'm surprised that your rims haven't rotted away yet, LOL.

Nothing wrong with the liquid weight but couldn't you have gotten someone to help put your iron weights on? You only have to do it once.

I have washer fluid, 300 pounds of cast iron and cast iron centers on my 6610 with loader.

It is non too little. put big bale on back when I want real traction.

 

[glennster]

with 4 weights on each side they do stick out a ways. id hate to clean off a shed door!

I made a lifting bracket to put the weights on our tractor, using a come- along. They weigh 185 pounds each, I put them on alone. Growing up as an only child and no close neighbors I had to figure out how to do things by myself.
