T in NE, The physics of adding ballast behind the rear wheels transfers center of gravity to rear wheels. I have a set of bar bells weights for hoe on backhoe that will allow me to transfer center of gravity to the back wheels and remove all the weight off the front wheels. The opposite is also true. I can lift heavy objects with loader, removes all the weight on the rear wheels and everything ends up on the front wheels.
All this is really a physics problem dealing with a first class lever. Either the front wheels or rear wheels becomes the fulcrum in the problem, depending on center of gravity.
