Anyone own/use a Flex point weight bracket? I've got the Northern tool copy of the flex point and I've been looking for methods of adding additional rear weight. It looks like a great way to do it, although removal seems to require lifting each weight off the bracket, which may be a hassle.
I don't see it listed as an item that can be purchased seperatly, but it probably can be. I've already got filled rear R4's, and I've been unable to find wheel weights for the Farmtrac 360 R4 wheels. I'd like to find a 3pt ballast locally, but they are big $ and hard to find.

Back when I was a little more apt to try tractor pulling, we would use a 7-hole drawbar (3-point lower links) and hang several suitcase weights on it. Stick the drawbar through the handles and lift. You loose use of the 3-point hitch. (We were pulling from fixed drawbar)

How about putting a drawbar (TSC 10.00) into a Wally world plastic bucket with the hitch pins sticking out some holes cut in side, then fill with concrete.
Some have made ballast out of 55 gal. drum etc. filled with concrete.
