Re: Weight box options?
How about steel flat bars as an option? Two 1/2" threaded rods mounted and stack up multiple pieces as needed.

But one needs a weight box for the ability to fine tune. Look at the scale variation that occurred last week. |

The way I remember it, weight attached to frame is considered permanent i.e. welded. Removable weight goes in the box. Now, just because you've been doing it your way, doesn't mean a whole helluva lot as of late. ;-) |

Just checked with a preeminent NHRA tech man.
Nuts have to be tack welded on ballast attached to the frame. |

Re: Weight box options?
if you really want to be safe use double nuts or NYLOK nuts on each bolt/stud where you are using removable weights--- you can also use bolts with a hole drilled in it and put a spacer(few washers) run the nut down tight then put a hairpin clip(cotter pin) thru the hole to keep the nut from backing off--REALLY -If you follow NHRA guidelines and use the required bolts etc. you should be OK do not understand why they do/would not accept that method ------weight boxes are for "loose"" ballast like bags of lead shot, loose lead bars etc.iron pieces--.not something that is "securely" fastened down
