Weight brackets JD 60

DieselRepairMan · Sep 5, 2021

Does anyone have any pics of a weight bracket for suitcase weights on the rear of an A or 60. The problem is I need to keep weights between front and rear wheels for one of the sleds in my area. I use wheel weights, but need the suitcase weights to get as close as I can for the class.
Any pics or help is appreciated.

This is what I have on my G. Could do the same with the 60. Might want the middle one further ahead though somehow but if a stock 60, the front is probably heavy anyway. The back one is in front of the rear axle, just drops down from the mounting bolts in the axle housing.

I have considered a belly bracket like that, and the 60 is a stock tractor with factory power steering so the front is plenty heavy. So with the front so heavy I want to get the weight as far back as possible. Could you maybe get a little better photo of your rear bracket.

I couldn't find any real good ones of it but I did have these. It is basically a flat 1/2x3 inch piece of aluminum bolted to a 2 inch angle iron that is bolted to the 2 mounting holes in
front of the axle and hangs down for the weights to hang on. Not sure if the 60 has these but the G's do. You could also make a short 1 ft piece that is attached to an angle iron
that bolts in those same holes but goes straight out from the axle. You could put some smaller weights on those.
