O.K., here is what I am doing to my Kubota B7500. I am in the process of building a winch mount for a mile marker 10.5k lb hydraulic winch. I am doing this mainly because my tractor is under powered (I feel) for a farming winch. 17hp at the pto. I am going to be using it for pulling logs up to the tote roads.
Here are my questions;
1) Should I 3pt hitch it and build the mount to use as a tractor brake too or should I put it on the front where the brush guard is and use the FEL as a tractor brake?
2) Should I use the fare lead or design without? I know that I will need to pull straight on, but even with a fair lead I would be pulling straight on.(afraid of pulling the tractor over.)
Thanks ahead of time for any help on this subject.
I have learned alot from this sight already.
