Buying Advice Mahindra 4035 HST vs. Kubota L4240 HST

Its what Kioti specifies! Are you saying you know more about their Tractors than them?

Not at all, I guess the better wording for a bunch of nit-pickers would have been "Since that's what they specify, the geometry of your tractor coupled with it's capabilities and ratings and so on must be plenty to prevent overloading your front axle when working with your loader at capacity." But then again those same nit-pickers would have picked up on the point that I had previously said "I'm just saying that with a loader capacity over 2500# on my tractor, I'd have more than 1000# on the back if using the loader to capacity, especially if the front tires are flexing the sidewalls a lot (I think of that flex as a visible indicator of when to add more ballast to the 3 point since it directly translates into the pressures the axle and steering are under)."

Ags flex cause they are taller and thinner. And I have NEVER picked nit in my life.

OK. And would you say by watching the amount they are flexing is a good way to gauge how much pressure the entire front axle is under? And if so, and you 'gauge' that it is more pressure than you are comfortable with, the solutions are to work less or add more weight to the 3 point? (obviously not to the point of overloading the 3 point though)

Couldn't prove it much by me

Need to use your Ag tire flex gauge.I have R4 tires so I don't have to worry about that. Now your being trollish.

How about going with a 10 ply front ag tire verses the standard 6ply ag front tire?Think that would reduce flex?Do some research on that one?

Why do you want to debate more obvious things? So you can try to blame me for starting that debate as well?

Just stating the FACTS.Not blaming you for anything.You seem to like research so here you go.Good luck.

Sorry, I just find it irritating to hold a conversation in a discussion board and people mistake what is said and then begin to twist things.

I just made a couple points that sorta progressed into a decent discussion and then with a new arrival or two to the conversation it spiraled into nit-picking and name-calling.

I have not twisted anything nor have I called anyone any names. You did.
