if you wear out a brand new loader in 3 years with current prices, or wreck the front end they are both expensive from what i see for loaders and new parts. The only guys i see that really wreck front ends don't do maintenance, or carry 2 round bales on a grapple bucket all the time, and the weight to far forward is a big problem loading axles and wrecking them, or just plain stupid drivers.
I feedlot I know destroyed 3 fairly newish Deere tractors front ends in just over 2 months. They drove them like they stole em.
I hardly ever see a wrecked front end, (worn out through many hours use yes) on a tractor with a proper bale spike, the maintenance is done right, or with good drivers to. Maybe with some guys the soft ride Kinda stops them breaking the Anvil with a feather, as somebody said here last week. Perhaps if they drove deacent they wouldn't need soft ride loaders! Now thats my thinking for the day with selling new equipment as a dealer, fixing for guys and a lot of driving experience running stuff to. You have probably seen most things more than twice to in the trade and round about life in general ;).

Today's Featured Article - Product Review: Black Tire Paint - by Staff. I have been fortunate in that two of my tractors have had rear tires that were in great shape when I bought the tractor. My model "H" even had the old style fronts with plenty of tread. My "L" fronts were mismatched Sears Guardsman snow tires, which I promptly tossed. Well, although these tires were in good shape as far as tread was concerned, they looked real sad. All were flat, but new tubes fixed that. In addition to years and years of scuffing and fading, they had paint splattered on
