PJB, In the initial stages Liquid ballast looks to be the cheapest way out in getting your tractor weighted properly. But the problem with liquid is every time you have tire troubles on the rear the tire guys want to KNOW First Off....Is there liquid in the tires? This will add about $10 to $20 dallars to a service call out to your place. A couple or three of thoses will run into money right quickly.
For what it is worth....IMO....Cast wt is the way to go. always there, No extra charges when there is a flat. If you like take them ALL Off in certian applications. Or leave them on all the time.
Cast is cheap too, at our local salvage yard then get $40.00 / set of 2, JD weights. Factory IH weight are about the same! So I hope this helps.
Later,
John A.
