I have some CA weights (two rear wheel weights plus the two front engine weights) that I don't use. Any ideas on what they are worth ? Am probably willing to sell, but golly, how to get them to the buyer ? Have used Fastenall in the past with good results, but I don't know how much they weigh to ask for a shipping quote. Anybody know what they are worth and how much they weigh(?) my bathroom scale doesn't go that high I suspect. ------------- Chris in NE Florida |

Don't want to state the obvious but you could weigh them one at a time on your scale.Just a guess rears 140-150.Sides 80-90.Seems like weights have gotten heavier as I've gotten older(LOL). |

Rear wieghts are about 150 lbs each fronts about 50 lbs ea. Last time I bought wieghts I payed 125 dollars a pair for rear CA wieghts allis wieghts, and 100 dollars for rear WD Wieghts F&W wieghts. I would have bought more at that price but that's all they had. They were used stock from a dealer. I've seen them go $300 at an auction but I think the two bidders were nuts. We have more than 7000 lbs of wieghts at the farm that aren't for sale at any price. I asked when I moved them all to clean out the barn. We might need them someday. |

| We had two CAs when I was a kid and my understanding always was that the rear wheel weights were 145 pounds each and that the front engine side weights were 90 pounds each. |

| Front weights are 90 lbs as some the the guys have stated. It has been a while since I sold any, but I got $200 for the fronts and $250 for the rear sets. You can box the fronts separately and ship USP. Rates have gone up but that used to cost about $65 per weight on the east cost. If you has a UPS account or a PayPal account you get a better rate on shipping. If not, it would be too expensive to pay UPS retail rates. |

I *think* you can ship up to 150 via UPS, but it will cost you an arm and a leg. When I moved to Iowa I shipped four tires, weighing 114 pounds total, via UPS. |

Put them on a pallet and send them by Fastenal. That's how I shipped the mower to you.

I believe the rear weights will also fit D-10/12 wheels, too. As for selling them, advertise on CL, particularly near the time that the Florida Flywheelers have their show... I believe they have events in early November, and mid January...  ------------- Source: Babylon Bee. Sponsored by BRAWNDO, its got what you need! |
