FEL, CUT and ballast box

Didn't you post pictures of your ballast tub in some thread here in TBN? If I remember correctly it was a pretty "nifty" setup. Jay

Yep.. it's here somewhere... it's cheap, and tidy... and doesn't have a big rear profile.. so it's easy to maneuver.. well.. at least as easy as it gets with 53yr old 2wd tractor with a loader mounted off one side of the tractor anyway..

I would only load my tires if my tractor was a primary digger other than that it tears the **** out of your property. I have way to many lawns and fields that a heavy foot print in spring & fall is just to destructive. If I am doing a lot of fork work or loader work I use my ballast drum or box blade. Other than that it is usually my brush hog on the back. Loaded tires would be a disaster on my property.
