West Union, IOWA FLOLO Farm 52175 | I forgot who made this one, but they're just south of Austin MN....I think.
The box weighs right at 500# itself and when I need weight I just throw in about 30 grader blades I cut to fit....then when I don't need them dump them....

Pretty sure they have what you want.
They made the one in the picture posted earlier.
I have four of them on different tractors.
As for me I just throw in a few weights, dump them when done.

West central Ohio | Deere offers a high rise weight bracket. Raises the weights up much higher so there is room for a rock box below. Had one on a rented 8320. Don't think I have a picture, but will look. |

| Thank you Golden Farms!
I got a call from Ontario this morning because of your pictures! email me your address and shirt size and I will send you a proper thank you.
I build these brackets. They are available for 8000 thru 8030 series tractors and now 9000T's
For those in the western Minnesota you may find them at your JD dealer or contact me directly (I prefer dealers), All the Kibble stores are handling them as well as a few others,St. James, Worthington, Benson, Mankato, Marshal (D&M), Haug, Lake Park IA, off the top of my brain. If your dealer doesnt have them encourage them ;-) |

N IL | Ok, I'm guessing that at one time you had to get at least the front end of the tractor into a low barn. So I'm thinking you used to have a loader on that tractor and used it to clean out some sort of a low barn? That's all I can think of.

West Union, IOWA FLOLO Farm 52175 | Way off....~grin~
I got tired of looking at the straight sticking up in the middle.... and When/If I ned to run it on the Generator it sits in my shop and I have a 4" stove pipe rigged up to put over it and stick out the walk in door,so the shop doesn't get fumed up(90% of the time we'd need generator running it's from ICE/cold. Last time it ran is when I figured this out and with it in place....the 7400 could keep the shop at a coomfy 85* ......
Liked it so much I just leave it...cause it looks cool ~GRIN~ |
