Agree... with the heavy bucket out front, the rears spin easily.. and the bucket bounces and really beats up the loader, frontend, and driver.... Simply removing the bucket will move the weight back to centered' and mostly help the tractor. However in a rough field, NO loader is better as it beats up the tractor less. Lots of loader tractors end up with broken spindles if plowed in rough fields enough.. I have broken several over the years and worn out several bolsters and pivots on farm grade tractors with loaders. Also seen lots of broken lug bolts from dragging the tires sideways...
And.. there is the loader frame, always in the way for maintaining the tractor, and blocking vision...
However, needing the loader is always a NOW event and having it on is always good for quick moving of equipment.
so.. your danged if you do, danged if you dont.
A quick tach bucket is really the best compromise.
