This stuff is starting to get very dangerous. If the purpose of the weights to to keep the front on the ground when mowing slopes, then you had better just park the tractor. The number one cause of farm deaths is tractor rollovers. If the front passes the back going up a hill, all the roll bar int he world isn't going to keep that tractor from planting you. Permenantly. Your better off planting the hill to a low growing grass or using some other kind of mower. When you reach the point that you need to steer going up a hill with the breaks, you are WAY too close to becoming a statistic. Be safe, keep all 4 on flat level ground. Aaron
