Wheel weight attachment points

[BonnySlope]

Hi all, looking at mounting JD wheel weights BM17972 (50 lbs.) on my BX2380 rears and was wonder if anyone has? The 1025R uses a 12 x 12 wheel also. I'd like to find a fair price on a used set. but everyone trying to retire on wheel weight sales, freight cost doesn't help.

Not sure about JD bolt pattern

as I made my own. 2 ~50# cast iron on each side. Good luck, I know what you mean about the cost of buying weights as they are expensive!

Bonny - do you have your tires loaded now with some type of fluid? That will add about 75 lbs per tire!

Yes, I had the dealer add the factory fluid before taking delivery. Approximate wheel and tire weigh 130 lbs.

Decided to keep JD wheel weights, with a little color not bad at all. My choices were orange or a close Kubota gray.
used 1/2 ready rod, oops all thread for you younger folks Tacked serrated flange nut on one end for inside of wheel and locked down with another flange nut on outside, four per wheel.
