I run my tractor for a multitude of uses, from hauling logs out of a woods, to mowing a couple yards. The latter makes loading all four tired contraindicated as I am pretty sure that loaded R1's will not do a yard good when I need to turn.
Have a couple ideas on how to add weight, temporarily to the tractor, looking for some feedback.
I have access to a fairly trashed Bobcat bucket. I was thinking of welding in a few peices of iron and then filling the bucket about halfway with concrete. When I need more weight out front I would ditch the working bucket and clip that beast on.
As for the rear, I was informed that one of the big Quick-hitch setups offers a unit that you can hang suitcases on. I haven't seen such a unit and uncertain if it would be a good choice.
What are folks experiences with mowing with rear loaded tires?
Does the front bucket trick look like it might harm the FEL?
Has anyone heard of a Quck_Attach unit that offers that weighting option?
Anyhelp appreciated.
