cast weighs about .284#/cu in or 491#/cu ft so... figure out the volume of the weight.. measure then subtract 'hole' from total.. all I know is my back hurts just LOOKING at them ! ------------- 3 D-14s,A-C forklift, B-112 Kubota BX23S lil' TOOT( The Other Orange Tractor) Never burn your bridges, unless you can walk on water |

What was the usual installation for these inner rear wheel weights? Factory installed? Dealership installed? Field (on farm) installed? If weights were not factory installed onto tractor, how did truckers usually secure them to their trailer for transport from factory to dealership ? Metal crate? Wooden crate? Etc...?? |

You say 31" wide which I assume to mean diameter?? Would these same weights have been used on a 34" wheel too?? Our 1966 190XT has 1 inside each rear wheel with the 6 pie weights on the outside of each wheel too. We are the 2nd owners and bought it as is in 1970. Local dealer sold it brand new and Dad knew the original owner. Tractor was ordered that way due to the very hilly fields that were on the guy's farm. He wanted it heavy to pull/hold on his hills. ------------- "My name is Lionel and I'm an Allisoholic" |

I think that is the same weight I had on my D21, had three on each side, when I traded for 7030 the dealer took them off and put 2 on each side of that. Dr knows but my dealer called them 450 lbs. ------------- 1945 C, 1949 WF and WD, 1981 185, 1982 8030, unknown D14(nonrunner) |
