I'm shopping for 450 lb weights for a Deere for use next spring. Can't find any used ones yet, but new ones are $1200 APIECE.
I'm a former calcium cloride user who had a bad experience and got rid of it. Had it in the rears of the 1086 and it did give good traction, no doubt. Then the right rim split on the inside and fluid shot under the cab. Flushed everything off well, but a month later all of the shifting linkage rusted tight and the tranny was jamming in two gears at once. Spent a whole day bending down over the hole in the cab floor removing, polishing, and greasing every nit-picking movable part I could get my hands on. Now that tractor has three cast iron weights on the inside of each wheel and two on the outside. I forget what I paid for the weights and bolts so I can't compare prices but the cast iron probably cost more than fluid, but I'll pay the extra price any day. Jim
