“Cultipacker” Wheel Weights
“My Kubota B6200 tractor, which I sometimes enter in pulling contests, has a light front end. I tried hanging weights on front, but it didn’t really help,” says David Simpler, Elkton, Md. “So I found two new 16-in. dia., cast iron Brillion cultipacker wheels weighing 25 lbs. apiece. They fit perfectly just inside the lip of the wheel rim on the tractor’s front wheels.”
    He drilled the necessary holes, and made stud stand-offs to keep the cultipacker wheels tight against the tractor’s wheel rim so they don’t pressure and crack the cast iron.
    “The cultipacker wheels help hold the tractor’s front tires on the ground now and to improve the traction,” says Simpler.
