Be careful blindly following some of the advice you get. Some of it is just plain silly, some is downright foolish, and some is just plain dangerous. First off, make sure your tractor is set up properly. You seem to have completely ignored the recommendations to make sure your tractor has the correct wheels on the correct sides. Go back and do that, or you could end up with the tractor riding YOU instead of you riding the tractor... Now, the way a differential works is that the wheel with the least traction always spins first. If it's always the right wheel, then there is a reason for that: The right rear tire could be more worn than the left, or of a poorer design. If the tires aren't matched, then this is probably the reason. The surface conditions might give you less traction under the right wheel. Sandy/slick/wet dirt under the right vs. hard dry under the left. The tractor is light on the right side. Make sure the cast wheel center is on the right side!!! Weighing down the tractor with reckless abandon is not the answer. When you're moving dirt, scraping, pushing, digging, plowing, YOU WANT THE TRACTOR TO SPIN!!! If wheels don't spin, something will break. If you're not getting anything done, then add weight, within reason. Don't exceed the number of wheel weights as recommended in the owner's manual, and even then that may be too much. Add weight gradually, until you can do the job, then stop. Use common sense.
