How much do rear weights weigh from a WD or WD45? Got 6 of them im think of selling and was wondering how much they weigh.
Thanks Randy

If they are the genuine factory Allis Chalmers weights they weigh 125lbs. each. There are also different aftermarket ones so it would help to know exactly what you have.  Don Jr.

Set it on a scale and weigh it. Bathroom scale would do the trick. Put a couple short 2x4's on top of scale. Put the weight on top. Smile

I was always under the impression that the factory weights were 150 for the rear & 80 or 90 for the fronts.  If you do the scale thing, let us know the results.  I know the rears were a test for one person to get those suckers back on.

Shipping weight is 130 lbs from an old Sales Book. I assume it had some sort of throw-away wooden pallet strapped underneath it for forklift handling.

Also an air wrench or something like that is very handy…
