Added weight to the Ford.

[Propane1]

While I was adding rear weight to the Case 224, I had two extra rotors I didn’t use. And I took two 5 lb weights from the Ford to add to the Case. So I took those left over rotors and added them to the Ford. An extra 10 lbs was added. Any way.

I really like the iron water trough you have all the other weight sitting in too, Noel! If I was ever to get the sleeve hitch built for the MF8E it would be a good place for some more rear weight. Could probably push a little bigger pile of snow with more weight. I need front weight on the 1450, and rear weight on the 8E---LOL!

I’ve got three of those troughs, another Ford at my sons place has one, full of weight. And a yard king lawn tractor has one with weight in it. Yard king is in storage and has been for a few years now. It use to have the snow plow, that I’m putting on the MF 12, on it.
I kinda forgot about that trough on the yard king. That might be a good thing to put on the John Deere. Got me thinkin now.

I stored my sons bar bell weights for years and had plans on using them myself for tractor weights. He got married and moved out which was a good thing but he took his weights.

I'd guess those brake rotors to weigh a good 10+ pounds each.

I have a scale that only goes to 11 lbs. when I set the rotor on it, it went to 11 lbs then to error just as I was letting go of the rotor. So guessing 12 lb or so.
