Four years ago we replace the rear tires on our 8050 which were loaded with Calcium chloride we didn't replace the blast as we were only using a 15 ft triple k and packers, though when we plow with the five shank wing plow there is a lot of wheel slippage. Just wondering if AC made wheel weight for the rear tires? What are they worth Morley ------------- Farm stuff 8050,6690,175,F2,5050,WD |

We have a set of inside wheel weights on the 8050, I think Dad said 800 lbs. each. They came with the tractor when he bought it new. I would have no idea on value or how hard they are to come by. Any weights from the 190's, 200's 7000's and bigger should bolt right on though.

I watch some of those inside rear wheel weights sell at auction for $200 each. I understood they were only 400 lbs each - I don't know for sure? I have seen tractor weights bring anywhere from $.10-.50 / lb. depending on what it is.
They also made some 300 lb each outside wheel weights for AC tractors.

| Factory inner wheel weights (for 38 inch wheels) are one piece (require removal of complete wheel to install) and are 400 lbs each. It would take a total of at least four (2 each side) to make up for full fluid on 18.4 x 38's. |

| I'm sure SW MO is too far from Ontario, but I have 3 pair (6 total) of the 400 pound weights, and 1 set (2) of big weights that appear to be factory. I was told the big ones were 1100lbs each. I would take $200 per pair of the 400 lb weights, and/or $500 for the pair of the big ones. |

Leon thanks for the tip about looking at other models 190, 200 etc perhaps would be easier to find weight locally Morley ------------- Farm stuff 8050,6690,175,F2,5050,WD |

| How many of them 400# weights can you stack on each side, is 2 per side the limit? My 8050 that burned up has 2 on each side, and I plan on putting them onto my 8070. Thought maybe while I had it all apart, might as well put 3 or 4 per side, as I have no fluid in the tires. Darrel |

We have a John Deere 3140 with 18.4 X 38 rims. Put new radials on but didn't put any fluid in tires. Anybody know where we could buy some dry weight? |
