 Topic: Thoughts on F&H Rear Weight Colors
Posted: 16 Jul 2018 at 8:47am |
I'm in the process of painting a couple pairs of F&H 161 and 162 rear weights for a WC and was wondering if I should paint them orange or black? I'm assuming orange, however I have seen some painted black. Looking for your opinions. Thanks as always!

I prefer black, but that is just me.

Probably go with orange then since that seems to be the popular choice. Thanks for the help gentlemen! NO way am I painting them green or yellow!!! However, around these parts if its green it seems to always bring more even if it is the same piece/part

I like black and orange on fishing lures but not on tractors. I think weights look best when they match the tractor. Having said that I do like white ones on some Farmalls.
