Easily add weight to your John Deere garden tractor with this Weight Bar. Perfect for enhancing traction and stability.
Our 18x3x12” weight bar, finished in JD green holds six 42-pound John Deere suitcase weights (not included). The easy bolt-on feature connects to John Deere tractor frames using existing bolts. No drilling needed for installation.
Compatible with John Deere x700 series; x575, x585, x595; x465, x475, x485, x495
Note: You will be able to use the hitch if you take off the suitcase weights.
Why Ballast Weight Matters: When operating a front-end loader on your John Deere garden tractor, having adequate ballast weight is essential for safety and performance. Proper rear ballast ensures better traction, stability, and balance when handling heavy loads with the loader. Without it, the tractor can become front-heavy, causing potential steering issues or tipping. Adding ballast weight like this bar (and suitcase weights, which you purchase separately from JD) combination helps you safely get the most out of your loader by keeping your tractor steady and secure.
