Suitcase weights are cast iron weights with a handle on top. They can be hung on the rear of your tractor for counterweight, offsetting loads picked up by your front-end loader. They will increase traction to your rear, ground-engaging tires. And some attachments can use suitcase weights for better ground penetration, too.
Available in both 41 and 70 lb increments in either black or green. Both weight denominations are the same thickness, and have identical slots for hanging.

Suitcase Weight Highlights
Is your tractor unsafe?
Simple weight. How important can it be?
The leading cause of tractor related deaths every year are rollovers. Tractors are simply too light out of the factory.
Hanging suitcase weights will help keep your tractor planted to the ground, and are absolutely essential for anyone using a front-end loader.
Uses for Suitcase Weights
Safety
To operate your Front End-Loader safely, you need counterweight on the rear of your tractor.
How much counterweight you need is model specific, and can often be found in your owner’s manual. We sell a 3-Point Weight Rack as well as Quick Hitch Weight Racks so you can hang a lot of weight in a small area. Using 70 lb weights and our racks, you can gain systems can gain you over 1,000 lb of counterweight.
We cover safety in a lot of our videos. But for a good overview, watch this video on tractor safety here.
Traction
Whether you have a John Deere, Kubota, Kioti, Massey, Mahindra, LS or any other tractor, if you run a front-end loader you should know that your tractor’s weight alone will not be enough to operate safely.
Along with increasing safety, suitcase weights can increase your traction in mud, snow, and ice. By hanging weight on the rear of your tractor you are increasing the weight your ground-engaging wheels, and providing yourself better traction.
Performance
A third way suitcase weights can be used is on ground-engaging 3-Point attachments, helping them penetrate easier into tough ground. These would be attachments like core plugger aerators, seeders, box blades, and discs.
These weights are for more than just tractors though. Wheel loaders and skid steers, or any machine where you need extra weight for safety and traction.
