Husqvarna Wheel Weight & Bracket For Tractor (TA321)

While this weight kit works at giving you more traction in the rear, in my opinion it's not the most optional way of doing so. Weight should be added inside each wheel rim for more lower weight and better stability on a slope. That way it places the weight right on the footprint of the tire where it should be and it would also leave the hitch available for use.

When I first got my YTH2348, I went to a local scrap yard and found a nice 1" thick plate that weighed 20lbs. I drilled it, painted it, and bolted it to rear of my rider, I found that it helped, but wasn't quite enough. After speaking with the people at PED, I was told that there was not a wheel kit available for my mower, but they did recommended this kit.

Here's what I have now, 70lbs hanging out behind the mower that gives me plenty of traction on wet grass. On dry flat surfaces, if I change directions from reverse to forward too quickly, it will lift the front wheels off the ground. It's not that I have too much weight, it's more about how the weight is placed.

It acts more like a leverage hanging behind the mower. With the weight attached like I have it, it makes going up a slope a bit more of a challenge considering the lighter front end.

The weight is fine. However, since it's "universal", it didn't quite fit my application straight out of the box (although it was supposed to). No matter which way I tried to mount the brackets, it would either hit the rear of the frame or the fuel tank on my Husqvarna LGT2554. But with a minor modification, it fits fine.

The weight can be rather difficult to mount due to it's bulk and weight.
Some of the bolts are difficult to mount because of tight spaces.
The holes for mounting the bracket didn't line up but I was still able to perform the mounting.
Once mounted it looks good and helps a tremendous amount with traction.
I would recommend this accessory.

Well built, easy to install, no drilling.

Be careful, weight is HEAVY.

Mowers Direct is an excellent company to deal with. I received my mulch kit items in four days in a factory-sealed carton with no problems.

I would not hesitate dealing with them in the future.

This mulching kit was the best I have bought in a while, it was very easy to install.

It works the best in dry grass, but still works well when wet- you just get a few clumps!

I recommend this product!
