Variable weight, weight block

[DieselRob]

I’m looking at options for the above to get from as light as possible up to around 1750kg, something that I can alter depending how on the application plus a bit of tool storage as well, so far looked at the Agriweld vari weight with the lift out wings and also the Rytec weightbox with a belly weight.

The Rytec does appeal as its a 1 man safe operation of drive on/ drive off type attachment, the agriweld looks to be a bit more involved and possibly safer as a 2 man job.

Any other suggestions to look at?

This one had a fuel tank and 1,000 kg slab weight that’s removable...

Battlefield my man, you seem to have dumped half your phone on the forum by accident, best delete some of those as they are personal correspondence with a third party.

Ah I get you now, that is exactly what I’m looking at, 750kg with 1000kg belly weight. Did your phone autocorrect Rytec to tyre house?

Albutt were looking at selling these. Scissors linkage pushes the weight out in the field for more leverage or bring it in close when on the road to make it more compact

I like the agribumper, especially the compactness and ability to use the front linkages. The cost is pretty wild though.

Would one with various water filled sections work?

It could do, problem with water is its bulk density compared to steel or concrete
