50/55 series side weights brackets.

G1355

Does anyone have pictures of these brackets, how they mount etc, I know its on the frame not sure if you gotta take bolts out or if you use holes in the frame. Only been able to find two on the Internet never seen them in real life, must be rare, does anyone know of anyone who has a pair they'd like to sell. I think that option makes them look neat, but have a feeling its gonna be tough to find.

Very rare item- I have a set. They can also mount onto an Oliver suitcase weight bar with the side holes- those bars are hard to find as well, most made were without holes.
 
I know of someone that has some later model MMs and parts. Not sure about an extra weight bracket but email is open.
 
I had a set made for plowing this fall since my G1355 is a little light in the nose with the 5-18" rollover plow on the hitch. Worked out well, tho never got to try it in the field. Road travel was the main concern and it kept it planted. There really isn't much to them, I just punted with what looked right and installed them on the tractor. They mounted to the most forward set of the 4 3/4" bolt holes under the radiator that secure the frame rail to the steering assembly
 
Thank you for taking time to post pictures, now I got a good picture and can see how they mount. Not sure how the original ones look but those look good enough to me, and if I can't find a set that looks easy to build. Thanks again for the pictures.
 
The original ones curve and that large flat steel on the end is considerably smaller- they surely will work, but won"t pass for originals! Looks to be some nice original paint on that G1355!
 
Here is a scan from the G1355 parts book. That's a nice looking G1350 FWA, can't be many of those around, is that yours?
