ed, I need the wieght for the rare occations when we plow. I do a good bit of custom work. Every year, someone needs a few acres plowed. I plow about 35 acres of my own. For the other 95% of the tractors use, the wieght is just dead wieght.
I am going to have the tires taken off the rims, (Fluid removed first), then clean and re-paint the rims. Then new tires and tubes. NO MORE RUST. I'll put about 600 pounds of wheel wieghts on, whenever the plow gets used.
We plowed some ground with the tractor, with no wieght added. It pulled it OK, but spun a few times in the tough spots. I think 400 lbs. should do the trick.
