Raider 2 #1 Posted October 26, 2010 I picked up a full set of cast iron weights today. I bought them for the WH fronts as I know how scarce they are around here. Does anyone know what brand the rears are? I think I got a decent deal on the set too, got all four for about what a pair of any other brand rears are selling for.

Rollerman 290 #2 Posted October 26, 2010 The rear weights look just like the ones I bought last fall at my local Toro/Horse dealer. I'm betting most places just sell a common wheel weight thats cast or fillable plastic. I don't beleive the old style ring weights for the back are still available as new.....(could be wrong). Nice find by the way! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevebo-(Moderator) 8,059 #3 Posted October 26, 2010 The rears are the same that were on one of my horses too. They are the good ones too-very heavy !!! A little paint and they are good to go :thumbs: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TT-(Moderator) 1,129 #4 Posted October 26, 2010 Yep - definitely OEM rears too. I believe they were available throughout the eighties. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Raider 2 #5 Posted October 26, 2010 Well that is even better news, I wasn't expecting to have a full set of OEM weights. Think $75 was a good price for all four?? :thumbs: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CasualObserver 3,406 #10 Posted October 26, 2010 Rear cast weights are still available new. I think the current model is 8-1117. They're just a bit spendy though. :thumbs: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
