RandyLittrell 3,827 #1 Posted August 23, 2019 Just picked up a nice set of wheel weights for a nice price, but have no idea what they came off of. I have searched for every garden tractor brand I can think of. They are heavy, at least 50 lbs. No numbers on them anywhere and it appears they were silver first and white later. Hoping you guys know. I'm not selling, so I guess it doesn't matter but it will drive me nuts if I can't figure it out! I found one pic, but they were for sale and no mention of what they came off of. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RandyLittrell 3,827 #9 Posted August 24, 2019 @WVHillbilly520H You nailed it! I didn't search for Monkey ward and it popped right up Montgomery Ward/Gilson. I will sleep better tonight!! Randy 1 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Tuul Crib 7,332 #10 Posted August 25, 2019 (edited) I have these very similar wheel weights and am in the same position. Can't figure out where they came from or what they were made for. All I know is they do fit and they look good. Edited August 25, 2019 by The Tool Crib 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks for the info on how much they weigh! I knew they had to be 60 or so, very heavy. I gave $60 and couldn't be happier! And welcome to the site!!

Jctrades 6 #15 Posted August 27, 2019 Thank you for the Welcome. I wish I could find them for that price! I paid 100.00 for the tractor with weights for my first pair the second pair I paid 150.00 now I'm stuck on tombstone weights. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
