Robert in W Mi offered an answer to the post- you didnt. So whose post is in the way of the useful info? 2. I didnt notice any negativity toward compacts to prompt this attack.(Or crudeness for that matter) 3.Many people have commented they enjoy the pictures Robert posts ,(me included). The suggestion to skip his posts if you see some thing that upsets you might be worth considering. I,m sure no offense was intended in the original post, all I noted was a brief answer to the orig. question As to the original question- duals would add stability, also wider rims like used for turf tires. You would want to investigate availability of tire /rim combo's that would suit your customers needs, Also all the mentioned solutions will add considerable width, weight and stress to axles and final drive components. You would want to keep tis in mind. Also wheel weights may add weight that could help stability, although loaded tires lower the center of gravity of the tractor more. Good luck-JK Follow Ups: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Compact tractor ballast Cowlitz Tractor 09:01:51 10/01/02 (0) Post A Followup Name: E-Mail: Subject: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Compact tractor ballast Comments: Optional Link URL: Link Title: Optional Image URL: Email Notification: If you check this box, email will be sent to you whenever someone replies to this message.
