Anyone ever make any frame weights for the D Series tractors? I'm planning on making some concrete ones in the spring, possibly with an embedded toolbox on one side, but I'm looking for inspiration. Pictures are most welcome!

We ve had a couple sets on 17s. Don’t know if they were factory or Rowe foundry. They would also fit on the WD45. Could send a pic on my phone ( not here) if no one else responds.

Allis front wheel rim weights were 93 lbs each per front wheel. Factory Allis front end weights were 75 lbs each times 4 for 300 lbs.   Rear wheel weights were 4 pieces at 75 lbs each for a total of 600 lbs for both rear wheels.  Anything you build to hang on the side frames can limit your visibility if you get them too wide. Be mindful of more height is better than width.

My plan is to essentially copy the B/C frame weights. I'm looking to counter some of my heftier implements, specifically the mechanical transplanter. Just another measure I'd like to take to make it easier on the wife when she's operating the tractor and I'm on the transplanter. Since I work in some tight spaces, and have limited storage space, I'm trying to avoid anything that extends the front end beyond the front tires.
