Tractor
BX1500
I am new on this site and all I have is a BX1500 Kobuta with a front loading bucket, and a grass catcher of which I am willing to sell as it works well, but I was in a Motorcycle accident and just getting on and off the Tractor to empty the bags is more of a pain then it is worth.

All I am doing is using the Grass catcher for is as a counterbalance for the front end loader. I have decides to use a a fifty gallon plastic drum filled with water that way I can make it as heavy as I want not to exced 400lbs.(which is what the Grass Catcher weighs:thumbsup: Well it all looks good on paper:confused:

1*The BX1500 is a nice tractor.I have 2 of them .
2*It may look good on paper but I wonder how stable the tractor would be with50 gallons of water slushing around in the drum?:confused:
