I built a new shop building and have not cleared the brush back far enough yet and have 10x10 roll up doors in different places. I bought 44 sheets of 7/16 osb to use as interior wall covering so about 2300# at 24" in front of the pins to unload from the trailer. the problem was that maneuvering to get in the doors with limited access and not wanting to put the forks thru the side of my new building, was a pain. I was thinking man it would be easier with a shorter WB, that was until i sucked up the osb and realized that if the tractor was any shorter or lighter this load would be handling me.

I don't know...doesn't sound like a "weakness" of the tractor....maybe a "weakness" of the brain that thought it would be easy... :)
