I can't get my head around the fact that the mower takes weight off the front axle because the mower operates in the float position. The weight transfer solution is to add springs to lift around 125# of the mower weight and put it on the tractor. I am considering weighting the front axle but I hate the idea of adding weight to a mowing machine unnecessarily. I hope someone here has dealt with this before.


Springs sound like a GREAT idea.

I want to do the same with the front mount tractor snow blower.
