papaglide 542 #1 Posted May 20, 2013 I got my new front weight bracket on the B-80 yesterday and did some discing in the garden. Big thanks to Squonk, aka Mike in Waterloo , for the bracket. Here are the pics. The B-80 is a bad a## little tractor! 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevbo 80 #2 Posted May 20, 2013 Nice! Are these brackets readily available for purchase on RedSquare? What models do they fit? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
squonk 41,155 #3 Posted May 20, 2013 (edited) Looks good Mike! I have these custom made. Mike's particular one is extra long to fit B's,C's and Blackhoods with the longer hood. Cost is $50.00 plus shipping depending on steel prices. I make nothing on them. I have a retired friend who is a retired welder/fabricator that does them for me.

rjcap 13 #4 Posted May 20, 2013 Would one of those help keep the front end from acting loose and squirelly when I'm going up inclines? Rolled the C-125 over once and don't want to have to cushion the tractor from damage with my body again. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ghakejr 2 #5 Posted December 28, 2015 Does anyone still make these weight brackets? I have a 1980 C125 that I would like to pull a plough with and I definitely need some weight in the front. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rokon 64 #6 Posted December 29, 2015 (edited) just my 2 cents but if you are running a tiller in the back you should have some weight hanging off the front also. This bracket would make that easy to do. Edited December 29, 2015 by rokon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jkdea63@gmail.com This thread is pretty old, and I don't think these are still available. This is what I went with for weight on my B-80. Made mostly of readily available stuff from Harbor freight 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
