Last year I replaced the rear tires on my 4440 and decided not to put the fluid back in. My tractor had 20.8X38 tires. I use the tractor for a loader tractor and a backup for tillage work. Any suggestions on how much weight to add?
The factory option shows 440 lbs weights which run $800 a set based on my checks at several salvage yards. Today I did a little research and found that the 1,500 lbs weight that fits a 4640 will fit my center castings. They don't show the 1,500 lbs weight for a 4440 but do show it for a 4450. The center dish casting part number is the same on a 4440, 4640, and 4450 so I know the weights will fit. These weights can be bought for $1,000 a set but I need to drive a little futher to get them. So my question is are these overkill for the tractor?
Based on my calculations, I don't think this would be any heavier than fluid, thoughts???
