In a few days I’ll take delivery of a new Cat1 Titan ballast box. It has a max weight rating of 800#. Was planning on concrete.
Not even an hour after I ordered it a buddy told me he has a big piece of lead he wants to get out of his garage (10” h x 12” w x 18” L). Free.
By my calculation this thing should weigh right about 1k#.
Can anyone see any huge downside to carefully placing it inside my new BB with some sand around it to dampen any shifting….. and tractor on?
FWIW I did call Titan about this “overload” situation and they obviously couldn’t recommend it due to liability concerns….but the tech also said it was my “call”.
