Rear wheel weights

   / Rear wheel weights #31  
Should have bit the bullet 10 years ago but I didn’t until now. Didn’t want fluid in the tires so I bought 6 107# weights for my kubota L 5740. View attachment 3172095
Did you have any ballast previously? Filled tires, for example?

I had filled tires on my 5740, but it was still light in the rear with a full bucket load of material. I added wheel weight, so now have both and it makes a huge difference.

Every loader I have ever seen REQUIRES ballast, and exactly how much or what combinations are spelled out in the manual.

No fluid, just always had something on three point when using front end loader, still plan on doing that with the weights.
