front weights

This is the bracket with weights attached.
I plan to make a bracket for my garden tractor a JD 186 to use two suitcase weights as a rear weight when using the snowplow.

Suitcase weights like that from the NH dealer are 50 pounds each.. and are 50 bucks each.. Ouch!

I have yet to find a source for used suitcase weights.

I am going the same route, I just have not gone ahead and finished up yet. I have the threaded bar, the weights (over 400 lbs of my former Universal sized weight set), and bolts to bolt it to myrear tires. I do need to make a front bracket to hang them on the front. I may make somethin the hangs on the frame and the blade.
