I used my MF GC2400 for 2 weeks with no fluid in the tires or rear ballast.( ya really don't wanna be there).
I put a small plastic barrel on my drawbar, with 1 and 1/2 bags of sakrete, bunches of good size rocks, 2 long bolts out the bottom(to hold to drawbar), and a long turnbuckle about 6 inches down from the top( to hook to toplink), with an old tire iron stuck down through the center. Made a huge difference in the tractor.
Loaded the tires yesterday with rimguard..........This machine is so stable now it isn't funny.
I dug out stumps today that were impossible to get out with just the barrel for ballast.
Full loads of dirt and clay in the bucket, tractor didn't bounce at all, and the front tires didn't squat down.
Hope this helps,
Don
