I am not convinced that concrete is the way to go, 3/4 inch stone works for me. Filled during the summer months and I remove 2 five gallon pails of stone for winter snow plowing. Filled up seems to take to much weight off the front of the tractor for snow plowing which will cause the front-end to slide around.I've have seen some people filling there ballast box with cement. Is this the best way to go. I use brick in mine, but they tend to shift from side to side. I need my ballast box for my 2305 fel and my snowblower. Anybody out there regret using cement.
I would like to go concrete, but I'm worried how my 2305 would handle the extra weight.
JB4310, what did you do to help the water drainage out of your ballast box? Drill some holes on the sides?
