3320 300cx 448 weight?

[KB9UDE]

Hello all
I am again thinking about a 3320, 300cx, and 448 bh. What should this setup weigh?? Would it be ok on a 7000lb trailer??

I have the identical set up and the answer is no. The tractor and FEL alone are almost up to the 5k the trailer can haul ( deduct the trailers weight to find load capacity) You hear it all the time on TBN safetly factor. If you add up all the unthought of stuff like fuel,chains,etc you'll often find that there you are at or exceeding the gvw if you cut it too close. Plus if you ever need to haul the tractor and say a few implements you'd be S.O.L.. Just my two cents. Oh the weights are 2900lbs dry for the tractor,I believe the loader is around 900lbs and the hoe weighs around 1500lbs. So you're already at 5300
without any fluids or chains and any other misc stuff you might need.
