I'm curious if anyone knows the weight of a 45S with R4's loaded in rear and KL451 loader with 72" bucket? I found the spec with AG tires and ROPS. Nothing on the loader or different tires. Reason I'm asking is because I'm trailer shopping now. Is 7K trailer to light? Move up to the 10Kor 12K trailer?

Hi Donny, Id guess your machine is right around 6500lb with loader and loaded tires, youd need at least a 20' trailer or a 22' if you get a backhoe . A 20 ft 10k trailer is about 2500lbs putting you at about 9000lbs without any other implements like a backhoe. Id stay with a 12k minimum.. Just my opinion.. I just bought a 10k 18' dovetail for 2899.00 plus tax,title,registration putting it at 3300.00.. Good luck.. Matt

Yes a 7k is too light. A 7k is about maxed out with a CK30, loader, and one implement. I found the Kioti website had the tractor weight, then the specifications on the loader had its weight. If you know how much weigh tyou will load into your tires then you can get pretty close. My 10k, 18' with dovetail, bumper pull trailer weighs 2500.
