In the pictur you posted with your "H" being used to move round bales, is the front end standard or did you beef it up with a different front end? If so, what did you use. Thanks Dan

Hi Dan,
It is a standard Swartz (sp?) front end with the larger sized tires for an M. The tractor is reinforced with stringers under it's belly and has 2,000 lbs of weight on the rears.
The outfit handles anything I throw at it, HOWEVER, it has an issue.
That bucket is off of an F235 and that sucker is heavy! Probably weighs 1,000 all by itself and much too heavy for a F-11.
Was loading heavy alfalfa bales with it the other day and after the rear wheels came off the ground about the third time, I went and got the bigger tractor/loader. Darned thing just didn't feel too darned safe. :>(
Seems to be plumb okay with the smaller standard F-11 grapple fork tho.
