I just loaded the R4 tires with windsheild washer fluid on my 2520 last night and thought that I would post some capacities. I couldn't seem to find this info while searcheing the other day, and the charts that one chart that I looked at was off by a long shot. The rear wheels held 25 gallons each and the front wheels held 5.5 gallons each. I filled them just over the top of the rim. I used the drill pump method with it hooked to my drill press. It took me about 4 hours from start to finish to get it done. Now for the fun part, seeing how much more traction I have.

Thanks for the info. What is the tire size on the 2520?

Should get you about 400 lbs on the rear, but I still have a ballast box in addition to the fluid to counter weight on the FEL.

You did add the lower temp WW fluid - - right? :)
