Anyone know the correct color grey for Kubota front end weights?

There are some Deere rear weights that have the same bolt pattern as Ford. I have done it.

Would have never guessed that!!! Deere usually marches to their own drummer. :)

They're maybe 1/16" off but they fit. Painted Ford white and no one knew.

Now that the correct color for Kubota front weights has been determined, here are some Kubota (knock-offs) front end weights I picked up. The weights get painted the same as the frame color of the tractor and that is Dark Gray Semi Gloss. Part number is 70000-73353 for the quart can.

Here's a Kubota paint chart with all the numbers for cans, quarts and gallons




And here are pics of the weights. They will go on my L4300.

Here's the before pic of the above post. I can't get this pic inserted correctly. Night and day difference.

Here's the final assembled pic, next to the"before" pic and showing the correct color painted weights on and in position. Weights on a tractor give the same satisfying feeling as weight in the back of a pickup. Correct color makes it even better. Heavy implements are a piece of cake to lift with front weights.

It may not seem like much but the correct color is obvious to viewers and a real plus when you sell equipment. Something with overspray from a rattle can or a "close-enough" costs the seller with $$ left on the table.
