Was trying to think what i could put up front without dropping a hunded dollars on suitcase weights. I came up with railroad track and weld on some plate to bolt up. Well i called a buddy that works at a chip mill and he said that all the peices they had were to long, but they did have a huge piece of round stock that he could use, i said that will work. He welded some angle iron to it and i bolted it right up, just from measuring an dgiving him the measurements, not pretty like he said but the price was right (free) and it gives me im guessing around 100lbs out front and also lays over trees etc while bushhogging. Its a little crooked, but i just bolted it up, theres some slop in the holes so i may be able to staighten it a little but again not for looks but weight. The round stock (have not measured it) but appears to be around 100lbs.
