Heavy Grill guard

[cleev]

I think I need some more weight on the front end of my tractor. When I raise the rotary cutter, (brown 460) the tractor's front wheels come off the ground if I am on a fairely steep grade. Would adding weight to the front by way of a heavy grill guard solve the problem? If so where can you get one thats 200 to 400 lbs? The factory guard is not very heavy. The tractor is a TC35

Cleev, if you ever plan on adding a loader you will not have room for anything which extends out further than the factory grill guard. You might hang some more weights on the front. NH has two optional 60 lb weights that will work with your factory grill guard and a factory loader. If you want the two 100 lb weights, you will need to add the NH optional extension bracket. Longterm, this might be a better solution than adding a heavy bumper and then having it interfere with later factory options. ...just my opinion.
