After looking at my last picture, it might be wise to V the lower link ball and put so the push back pressure is headed to the cutting edge.
Actually there is 400 pounds on the 3 point to help the rear steering:The Toolcat must have a lot of lead in it's butt to handle that much load extended out the front. (with no added counterweight)
Tilt is available :I can see that, with all these FEL mounted attachments, one has built-in hydraulic top link but no tilt. (hopefully )

Bought a slightly used Vestal fork lift boom for cheaper than scrap steel. Much rated higher than the tractor lift. Been handy around the farm. With log grapple attached at end can reach and grab small logs or tree tops without getting off the tractor.
Find quickly being able to switch from forks to boom and back most useful.
Ramp test fitting. Two pieces, ~1500# each.
