Well when it comes to weight on a tractor lets just say i may be a little off PLUMB for a tractor with a loader ya can never have enough . Loaded tires wheel weights and yes some on the hitch . For snow removal on a two wheel drive ya can't get enough iron on for traction when you find that layer of ice under the snow or ya have heavy wet snow , This is where tire chains come into play. For me keeping the back end GLUED to the ground is my main goal , once that back end comes off the ground you have problems . I had at one time a 706with a 2000 loader on it and yes at times i was lifting more then i should have.

It was those 14- 16 foot cultimulchers that would get ya in trouble even hooked on the back chains that were about 2 foot out on the boom pole not at the end. Even with the 18.4x34 tires loaded ten sets of do nuts and what ever else i could hook to the hitch it still could be tippy . Have a steering spindle snap off will let you see your life flash in your eyes .

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
