Junkman:

I am really honored. Being the object of your somewhat misguided humor. For RaT, I'm not sure. After all, he is from the land of Arnold.

Rusty, I have not loaded the tires and see no need for it. My tractor does very well without more ballast. I typically run out of power before traction depending on soil conditions. I recommend trying your L3830 without ballast first. If you need to add it, it's quite simple to do yourself. Plus, you get the advantage of knowing what it is like without ballast. If I was using only 2WD, I would probably ballast them. Daryl, your unballasted aren't you?

RaT:

I made a set of weight brackets for my rears and put on olympic weight disks. The only reason I did it was for the MoCo. Its pretty heavy and a couple of our hayfields are hilly. I didn't want to spin the rears and destroy the hay plants. If you search "rear wheel weights" you will find my post as well as the post that Mike Pa., did on the set I made for his Boomer.

I hardly ever run the tractor in 4 w.d. Most of the time it's in 2 w.d. The MoCo has a toungue weight of about 1200 pounds. I have never felt the need for suitcase weights on the front and when I farm with the 5030 I always have the loader off.
