Do you have any used tractor sales places around you. or any farm auctions coming up? thats where I have the most luck finding them. I know they're are some for sale on compD right now.

They are expensive used to but I got some for free:D

yeah they do run a lot ill cant think of any used places right now to buy from you wouldnt happen to have the link to the ones on compd i cant seem to find it

x2 on compd, there is a guy in southern Iowa with a bunch or did have a bunch last time I seen it on there....

Look for farm auctions and be ready to pay some money for them.

James do you work for big chevy hitch I have one of your pulling hitchs and it's a nice product. You guys don't happen to build weight racks

I bought mine in craigslist for $40 per 100#. Walked away with 1000#

Where are you located? I have some Allis Chalmers 94# weights for sale.

you usually end up payin around a $1 a pound used tractor auction is where we look! or stop by a big farm and see if they have any old weight layin around they might part with...

No shit. What style. Like the ones you run now. Or suitcase style

suitcase style,

heres a picture just to give u a idea of what they will look like, final size and other specs are still being debated, thay will weight about 100 pounds each and we will also be making a half size one also

FYI, Macfadden's in sharon springs has JD weight for $75 for hundred pounders, the guy told me they pretty much have an endless supply. Everyone else in CNY wanted $1 a pound. Auctions are the way to go. The good thing about dropping money on tractor weight is that it seldom depreciates in value.
