(quoted from post at 17:58:44 01/25/17).............................. Or go spend money on things that you may not need, and complain when things break because you added to much weight to a little tractor, that may not have been designed for it.
(quoted from post at 06:40:10 01/26/17) Yes, you need weight on the front end but that is usually not a problem when you've got a loader bucket full of wet manure, or whatever. More often than not you have TOO MUCH weight on the front end, and a ballast box on the 3pt is the only way to alleviate that.
Liquid ballast, even beet juice, makes dealing with the tires so much more difficult. You've got to have a pump and a place to store it any time you need to work on a tire, and if you get a puncture, you end up with a mess. I will pull the fluid out of a tire if I can possibly get away without it.
(quoted from post at 16:58:44 01/25/17) Over Thinking the whole thing. Go use the tractor, you might just be surprised that it works as designed. Or go spend money on things that you may not need, and complain when things break because you added to much weight to a little tractor, that may not have been designed for it.
(quoted from post at 05:20:59 01/26/17) I farm about 1000 acres and have liquid ballast in nothing. Cast iron is the only way to go. This applies to newer and older tractors.
