Besides wheel weights I added about 13 gal of windshield wiper flued to the rear tires. Made a big difference and no weight added to the axels.

After breaking two Kubota axles I'm a firm believer in putting the weight in or on the rear wheels.

I haven't been at it that long but Allis will probably out live me.The only time I take off the blade is to put on a sprayer.
