I'm kinda wondering why you'd want to add weight to the front? But i would not drill the hub,maybe the iner rim,a lot of larger rims have 4 holes for that reason. but the 2310 has darn small front rims for much useable weight. have you thought of a bracket off the frame some how to add and remove suitcase wheights,something you could bolt on exsisting holes. Assuming you want the loader on,if you want to have weight with it off just get the front weights. Just something to think about! Every thing we do is somthing to think about ain't it lol!

Well I have added one more on each wheel for a total of 3
wght's for 120 lbs per side.

I have found 2 pcs of 12x12x2 plate now to drill and hang
from the front..

After all this wgt and my wgt will the wheels trun??

Well I welded a pcs of angle 4 in down from the top of a pcs
and drilled both pcs to bolt them to ghter hmmmm..

First pcs was to high to let the gaurd in the front move so the hood could be opened AND it al so hung down to far to let
the hanger for the MMM to work properly... leason learned.

Front wieghts for the 2310 may not be a good idea...
