Found that engine knock on the 300u

Posted question earlier about the source of a engine knock. The knock was not from hydraulic pump but from the stablizer bar under the engine. The bracket holding the bar broke and when load was put on the front of the tractor the bar would bounce against the oil pan, broke a hole in the oil pan and put a ding in a piston bolt on the crank shaft. I'm very lucky the crank shaft is fine it just cost me a new bracket and a oil pan. Next question, I was told this is a weak spot on the 300u's, did this bracket break because of age or is moving round bales 1000 to 1200 pounds to much for this tractor. I have a do-all loader and that and the hydraulics work great but can they lift more than the tracor can handle? Any input would be greatly appreciated.
