Ford 2000 Front Weights

3 cylinder. Does anyone make aftermarket front wheel weights that would work....? I am just a touch light up front in a couple steep spots. Nothing dangerous but would like to add a couple hundred pounds. Will also load the front tires when I replace the rubber.
 
I do not believe these are still commercially available but used front wheel weights for 16" rims can sometimes be found. Of course, you will need to find them close by to avoid expensive shipping costs.

I'm pretty sure those wheel weights are still available from Taylor Foundry. Any NH dealer can order them through the 'direct ship' program with
a very modest shipping cost to the dealership.
 
For what it's worth...
You can also put a front bumper on it and
add some weight to that. Original Ford
bumper weights if you get lucky enough and
find a set or some guys add barbell or
exercise machine weights or whatever to
keep the front end down. Weight machine
weights can often be found rather cheap or
even free on craigslist.
In addition to keeping the front end
planted better when I have my heavy Bush
Hog on I have found with front weights the
front tires scuff the lawn less when
running the finish mower.

I fabricated a bracket and mounted it to the holes provided. I made it big enough for 6 concrete (not cinder) blocks...approx 6x8x12 each.
Wanted to feed 5x6 round bales of hay running around 1500# and wanted to be able to steer with the wheel, not the foot brakes (Ford 3000).
