buying FEL for 2305

[dakotagun]

front/rear weight of by 2305 according to the nifty spreadsheet posted on this site: 1049/1546 (with cx200 on front, 2048 box blade on rear). and as I understand it, we like to keep the ratio 50/50? so I can put up to 400lbs in the bucket and still avoid overloading the front axle... is that how it is calculated? I have about 94 extra pounds hanging on the BB, so it is skewed a bit more rear-heavy than above. I don't have much to worry about for agility/length of unit where I am working it, so being more compact isn't a concern. still, I'm looking into picking up a box and would fill it with stone/gravel, I believe.
