b2920 Front End Locker

[ericher69]

Does anyone know of a manufacturer for a front end locker to get TRUE 4wd on these tractors? Something like a Detroit Locker or ARB Locker?

Thanks

I've never heard of one for any compact.

The reason I ask is because I used the 3pt hitch blade today in some 5/8 minus gravel and without the diff lock (rear) it was spinning b2920...front right and Rear left. No problem once diff. lock engaged but front locker would help that much more!

Sounds like you need more ballast-loaded tires and/or wheel weights on the rear and suitcase wieghts on the front if you don't have a loader. If you have a loader then scoop a bucket of rock for front ballast.

The front axle isn't strong enough to have a locker in it, thats why they include one on the rear only in the little models. If you have no weight on the front it wouldn't help much anyways.

For weight in the front a 51" blower with quick hitch should provide more weight than "suitcase" weights.

And for the axle not being strong enough I find that hard to believe...

You are only talking about 29hp at the crank.
