Randy: I am currently designing racks for my 130 and 140, and I,m putting them on front side of final drive. I only need them for plowing, disking or pushing snow. I'm thinking 400# each side about 18" ahead of rear axle center, will give good traction as well as some frontend weight. I'm just trying to decide how to design them so I only need to remove actual weights when using cultivator.

Years ago I ran chloride in these little tractors, and that did make them more stable, however I like to be rid of the weight sometimes. Those suitcase weights are fast for removal, providing one doesn't have to remove the rack. I used them on my big Farmalls years ago, had racks out front but I often thought of building a rack just ahead of rear axle on 560 and 656.
