i recently purchased a mccormick w9.i didn't know till i went to pick it up that it had wheel weights & fluid in the rear tires.it was so heavy that it picked the rear wheels of my truck about 2' off the ground when we loade it & i had stay under 55 driving home because in the 100 degree temperatures the wheels kept heating up.anyhow i'm tryin to remove the waits as i don't need them since all i will do is show the tractor.i assume you have to remove the center cap to get the hub off.is that correct.also i will probably sell the weights.does any one need a set.thanks for your help. hugh

Although I have not noticed this on my 650 or W-9 which both use the same weights, there are two different weights. This is borne out in both of my manuals.

The weight that goes next to the wheel has a large center hole and no slots for your hands. The second, third, and so on have a smaller hole with the slots.

You must have at least two weights per side and are assuming that the outside weight is similar to the inside weight.

The net effect is that you can remove the weights without touching any other part of the tractor.

The center cap holds the wheel on the axle, if the weights are on the inside of the wheel you will have to remove the whole wheel. That is a very haevy job, I would consider removing the fluid, and keeping the weights.
