Weights

[gscrsigs]

Any chance anyone would know what manufacturer made these weights. And if they were for front or rear. Looking see what they are worth. Thanks 41kg so they are heavy

the pullers like weights like that. Those are exceptionally good because they are close to 100# but a little less, and because they are thinner than many so they take up less space on the weight bar, and of course with the hand hold they are easy to sling. Up to $2.00/lb for those.

Most used weights I've seen are selling for about a dollar a pound.
I would like wheel weights over fluid in the tires.
I made this concrete reat ballast over buying wheel weights or adding fluid to tires.
My concrete ballast is about 900 pounds. I couldn't lift his metal brake without using my homemade concrete ballast.
I don't think I could add 900 pounds of iron wheel weights to my Kubota.
I don't think I could afford buying 900# of iron wheel weights either.
I have thought about making concrete wheel weights. Thinking is as far as it went.
I'm going to guess your weights are not for wheels. They are most likely to hand on the front of the tractor.
41 kg is about 90 pounds. 90 pounds this old man would struggle to lift and hang on the back of the tractor.

I picked up some 85# Taylor Foundry weights for that much last Fall.
But those IH suitcase weights…around here they’re going for double that.
Like real estate; location, location, location

I’d like to find some wheel weights for my Workmaster 75. Older version with the 4 hole rims, most show the newer 3 hole setup thry went to.

Those 3 point weight blocks work good, I just use the tractor for moving stuff or pto work too often to want to mess with the 3pt that often.

Dad made concrete wheel weights for the Oliver 88. He found a steel wheel with a center hub that just fit the axle of the tractor. The outer rim was also a nice diameter for a typical weight. He filled it with concrete, he did a nice job smoothing out the surfaces. Put 4 holes in it to mount it, I believe he welded a pipe to the spokes to set them in place before the concrete. Used the tractor to plow with a 3-16, needed two of these on the land side for traction.

Tractor pulling is happening pretty much everywhere.
