You mow that one with a skidloader? How long does that one take if you do use the skid?

Nah, I think this one is done. What was needed said is said. People can read and make their own informed opinions. But facts are there for all to read

They didn't "make" solar a 20 yr payback. Solar was already that or more. Til govt forced them to subsidize residential solar . That cost was passed onto all non solar customers. So non solar customers paid a lot more, solar customers were way over compensated. They just balancing the playing...

No, you stated your incorrect opinion twice. Sure, you are correct if everything is static, and the loader doesnt try and lift anything at all. Tractor just sitting there and you add weight to the rear tires.....sure....no weight gets added to the front axle. Now, get in the real world of...

BINGO

And most people DONT try and lift max weight intentionally. But it happens way more often than most think about. Say you have a light implement on the back....landscape rake, land plane, post hole digger, etc. And you go scoop into that pile of dirt or stone to try and snag a bucket load...

The pin is loosened to allow the half that is threaded to spin. The pin is re-installed. It does TWO things. First....yes it keeps it from spinning and changing the adjustment. But second....that is also how it is attached. Without that pin installed, the two halves of the stabilizer can simply...

Thats nice. How much you reckon it weighs? Are them R4's loaded?

No, I am not wrong. I am 100% correct in everything I said with exception to perhaps the exact weights. But the concept is accurate. There is no need for a pi$$ing match here. FACT: A bare tractor with NO ballast cannot come anywhere close to lifting the full rated load capacity of the loader...

Surprised your dealer cant tell you if they are the same. Looks like alot of the part numbers are the same

I do find that odd, since cat 2 specs are 32" for lowers. So its strange that 32" is at its max for narrowness. Couple of options.... 1. contact your dealer. Looks like some of those tractors had the more traditional pin-type stabilizer. See what the working range is on those and if you could...

Aparently no body reads the posts before replying. Everyone keeps repeating about not an equal amount of threads showing. It was addressed in post 11. Only ONE side of that type of stabilizer is even threaded.

Its NOT neutral when you factor the use of the front end loader. Ill give some examples with some round numbers and easy to follow Tractor.....MX6000....With loader and cab......lets call it a 6000# machine The matching loader is "capable" of lifting 2000#. However.....in its bare...

Actually loading the rear tires can increase the load the front axle sees

A landplane dragging a piece of fence sounds like what you are envisioning
