Need Help - Front Weights

/ Need Help - Front Weights #11  
Frank,

On my uncle's farm I drove an MF235 gas, that had a forklift on the 3pt. We carried 2300 lbs on the forklift. We used a variety of weights to keep the front wheels down: a stamping die about 80lb, 2-60lb front weights, 1-75lb front weight and some threaded rod to hold the die in place. All of it was hung on the front weight mount.

Thanks guys, some good ideas. I found my barbells but they only had 2 small, sand filled pastic weights on them. I'm going to hit some yard sales this week-end to see if I can find some more weights or ammo cans. Which way I go will depend on what I can up with.
