Do you have wheel weights?

   / Do you have wheel weights? #31  
I run (3) 60 lb weights on each rear wheel. Did not want fluid fill because have lots of sharp objects in yard like thorns and deer antlers, etc.

I just keep the box scraper on mine. It’s only a 54” box, but it weighs over 500 lbs. Then I wrapped about 80 lbs of chain around it. It’s set much further back than liquid ballast tires would be. The loader will run out of grunt before the rear tires levitate.

Not all box scrapers are equal. Some only weigh a couple hundred pounds.

B7100DT has 40 lb in the front and 75 lb in the back. L3540HST-C has 3 55 lb each side in the back, plus loaded.

That gives me about 970 lbs and also the BH which stays on all summer.

Nope..... Just 500+ lbs on 3PH... Wheel weight or filled rear tires are just not enough....

JD weighs in at 520 lbs. according to manual...
I could pick them both up with my M9000 at the same time I might add. I won't buy a tractor (Kubota) without cast centers. I don't fill tires, no need with cast centers.

My winch weighs about 700lbs. That want enough to keep the rears on the ground.

Tell the wife you need a backhoe on the back to be safe. Without it you could flip over and be killed. I had one on my 1725 and I got one when I jumped up to the 2860e.
