Hi all.
Question on what folks think about a ballast block or barrel that gets mounted to the three point hitch. Any issues with it causing problems in the long run? I would assume you need to get it hitched up and then lower the arms as much as possible so the tractor isnt trying to lift it up constantly....
I currently have a MF20 thats a bit to light in the rear for doing much of any loader work, and havent had much luck trying to find any wheel weights local to me. Ill probably put some rimguard in when its time for tires (one is in good shape, one is not great, but new rubber isnt in the budget right now), but would like to have a more near-term solution.
Would using something like a set of stay-bars that go from the lower links to the top link on the 3 PH help distribute that a bit better? I dont even know that they would fit around a block or barrel to be honest.
Im just trying to spitball some ideas before spring, so appreciate any thoughts.
