    Posted: 07 Feb 2010 at 10:40pm
I bought a pair of weights at the salvage yard this past fall that came off of a 7040. I intend to install them on my Two Twenty, but I am curious what they might weigh. I suppose I could haul one to the  Co-op and weigh it and my pickup together, but maybe some of you guys have experience with them. They are as stated from a 7040, they are 8 1/2 inches thick, with an outside diameter of 31 inches, and a center hole for clearance on axle about 12 1/2 inches in diameter. They are very substantial chunks of iron!
They also had some of the 450 pounders there, but these were in my price range. It is going to be a challenge getting them mounted. This is the only photo I have at the moment.

If my calculations are right, they should weigh about 1250 lbs.  I don't think I've ever seen any that big.

I could believe the 1250 lb. estimate. Thank you. Here are some fresh photos from this morning.
 
Thanks for the help!

I come up with 1399.06 not subtracting for the bolt holes, the small turn on the OD, or the shallow C'bore. So my guess would be 1350lbs. Now all you need to do is weigh them and tell us who wins the prize. LOL Charlie

If I remember right, they were asking $150 a slab. I am not real sure on that, though.
It seemed like enough to me at the time.

I am not sure what kind of a prize to offer. Maybe the opportunity to help install them? I will see if I can get them to town sometime to weigh them.

If Bretts numbers are correct then Neil might have a closer estimate. Any way that is some serious ballast.

That reminds me of a Red/Green episode where he is using a mitre saw. Red looks directly at the camera and says, "Be sure to count your fingers before and after each cut, so you know if you should be sifting through the sawdust." I, of course, winced when he said that.
"If the women don't find you handsome, they should at least find you handy."
I really enjoy that kind of humor.
