Mx5000dt question

[mikeg135]

I have a 2003 mx5000dt with LB702 FEL. Does anyone with a FEL also run front weights? Asking because I just bought the 24-20 harrow from EA
Everything Attachments Xtreme Duty Large Deluxe Box Frame Disc Harrow. Sucker is heavy. It seems to pull fine, but thought adding some weight would not hurt.

I suppose if you needed weight a bucket full of dirt or gravel might help

Adding front weight is probably not necessary, but that is the operator's decision. There have been problems with Kubota's front drive shaft couplers associated with not adding rear weight, when using the FEL with 4wd engaged. Apparently, without extra rear weight the front wheel drive is stressed and there have been coupler failures and shaft spline damage resulting.
