John deere 520 front weights

I bought a two piece weight set for my JD 520LP a few days ago but they are not what I thought. I thought they were the side mount weights that go with my front weight but it turns out that they actually wrap all the way around the front and touch in the front and bolt to the front. They appear to probably weigh just as much as the 3 piece set would but they are just a two piece set. They have JD stamped on them with a star beside the JD and number B3280R and B3281R. They fit my 520 but Ive never seen these type before. Any information would be appreciated. Thanks.
 
I looked up the part # in my 530 book, and John Deere shows this for 520/530 gas, LP and all fuel

LS weight #A5347R
RS weight #A5346R
Front weight #A5345R (hardware included)
Does your 520 have a wide front, if so these numbers are good for all EXCEPT tractors equipped with 38" fixed tread front axle
Hope this helps
 
David, you have the weight set for a 50. Those numbers (and weights) are unique to a 50. As you know, they will physically fit other tractors but they were made for the 50 alone. They are very collectible. But they are a different design and cannot be added to. Hope this helps. Mike
 
My tractor has a narrow front end. Are the weights i have made for a wide front end or they just another JD front weight option? Thanks.
 
That helps a lot. I have been involved with antique John Deere tractors for about 10 years and I have never seen a set like this. Thanks for your help.
 
Keep them and use them. I see a set on ebay right now like those but with the a part numbers gong for $1,000 !

and I am kicking myself for selling a set pretty cheap a few years back.
 
I just saw those on ebay. Wow! I'm going to bolt these on my 520LP. Like I said this is the first set I have seen. I guess I got a good deal at $150.00. Thanks.
