Need help with front suitcase weights for Ford 7710

[pharmvet]

After looking high and low, I finally found a really nice front bracket and 7 Ford suitcase weights for my 7710 FWA. Im going to take them off the bracket and use a wire brush and some nice Ford blue paint before I put them on my tractor. Each wt. is held on the bracket with a bolt tightened from the bottom. How are these wts. held together. there is a square hole in each one. Is there a special bolt, or do you just use all-thread and nuts on each end? thanks

Not familiar with your particular weights, but the suitcase weights on the front of my John Deere 2155 just have basically a piece of allthread through them with locknuts on each end. I would imagine that yours would be the same. All it is for is holding them together, and this is definitely the cheapest alternative too.
