I've been thinking(dangerous in itself/w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif) there may be times I may want to do loader work w/o the BH attached. Some type of rear weight may/will be required. Any opinions on what should be used? As you can see from my profile I have most implements I need for use with my Cubs. The only thing I can think of to add with the BX22 purchase would be a boxblade. Does this seem like reasonable weight for loader work? Homemade ballast system? Or should I just save my money and plan on using the BH.

Just thinking about tight places where a BH may cause problems. Then again it probably wouldn't stick out much more than anything else on the back of the tractor.

Thoughts, comments and constructive criticism accepted. C

I have a BX2000 with FEL and box blade which seem to balance each other out. Its really wet and the forcast is not looking very dry so I'm not getting much seat time.
