Just leaned it against there for the picture. They were advertised as Cub Cadet weights. But when I saw them in person I knew they weren’t . Seller realized it also after someone passed on them. I also knew they were a lot more uncommon than Cub weights so I took them anyway. Don’t fit anything I have. So far. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

redturbo 493 Posted September 12 Share Posted September 12 6788D weights 42.5 lbs & fits 16” rims. Farmall type tractors are not that common out west I did not know a lot about them. Had gone to couple rpru's & noticed front wheel weights on them. Was in southern Ontario on holidays, found a set of front wheel weights in Buffalo & a set north of Detroit. Picked set in Buffalo & headed for Detroit. Hindsight should drove thru Cleveland, crossing from US to Cdn back to US was bad idea. US border guards could not believe I was going to ball games & buying old tractor parts. Image the time travel was their reason for concern as was 4 hr trip from NY via ON to MI. Car got ripped apart, mirrors on wheels, dogs, etc. Got to answer the same 7 questions times over a coarse of 2hrs. It was an eye opening experience for this farm kid from Alberta. Finally made to north of Detroit & picked up the other set of weights. Got them sent back home. Went to put them on the Super W6 with 18" rims & they don't fit. Started searching the net & learned what these weights are for. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
redturbo 493 Posted September 12 Share Posted September 12 9042D weights 73 lbs & fits 18” & bigger. Which includes Super W6, W400 & W450’s. Saw these weight on Yesterday tractor classifieds for sale. This time I was prepared with part number, cardboard cut out the 18" hub with holes punched out. Also traced out the 16" rim weight so I didn't buy more of the smaller weight. Drove from Alberta to Iowa to pick them up & made a holiday of it. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
drglinski 544 Posted September 13 Share Posted September 13 I know they are practical, but I never liked the way they made the front wheels look on a letter or hundred series. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
