Wheel Weights for the 1450
Since we picked up a front blade earlier this year I thought I should add some weight for plowing snow, if we get any. I looked around the shop and found some farmall front wheel weights. 1 pair from cub and another that fit a C, H, or M. I got them mounted today. The total weight is 128 lbs. The extra weight sure makes the tractor feel different. I'm now looking at a couple options for chains. Do you think this will be enough weight?

 ACecil. And since they are IH brand weights they will work better than some off brand weights.

yep chains is always needed. some get by with out them. my 582 does good with out chains but when I put a set on it'll push 2' to 3' of fresh snow like its not even there.
with out them I need to ram it till the tractor stops then back up and hit it again. but I only had 40lbs in each wheel 2 years ago and got no snow last year. this year is the test (if there is snow) 95lb in each wheel , going to try with out chains first. I have 75lb JD weights in the 882's wheels pushing a thrower. I shouldnt need chains for that. but have a set just in case.

Well, since my cub has NO weight other than the driver, I'm going to say a whole heck of a lot better than mine!

I have a blacktop driveway about 500 feet long-there is some incline to it.
I have fluid in my 108 cadet tires, and a set of weights. I am afriad to put the chains on because I hear chains will ruin blactop

I would prefer adding more weights rather than adding liquid. as far as chains go I've been looking at these.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
