I have a BX. Accordingly, my rear implements are fairly lightweight.
I would like to add weight and thought about welding some more steel onto the implements, but then I thought about just buying some lead shot, cutting open some of the members, fill with lead shot and then weld cut end closed again.
I figure adding a hundred or two hundred pounds to box blade and rake would help engage the ground better, and this is the easiest way to do it.
Am I nuts, or is this a reasonable idea?
