Got a whole bunch of suggestions for weight on my little tractor. It's gone and I have the next bigger. Still need weight because of the FEL, and a couple of the regular places I need to move bales and tanks is uneven. Almost turned the tractor over with a round bail on the FEL the other day. Since then, I've been using the 3pt fork and hanging a bale on back for a counterweight but it's a little awkward. Filling my tires will give me about 900 pounds on the rear and 200 on the front.
now the ??'s....
1) is the extra weight on the front necessary
2) will filling the rear tires, serve the same purpose (or better) as hanging the 800 pounds on the 3ph?
3) Will it do any damage (can't see where it would) and would it serve any purpose, to add wheel weights to the already filled tires??
I work in small places and have a couple sloping places that I'll be haying.
