[QUOTE="chesterspal, post: 129652, member: 23493"] That's an interesting concept. Checked it out on Youtube but all the examples were for tractors where they filled the rear tires 75% with washer fluid or some other liquid. The idea being to offset the weight of the bucket way up front. Not sure this will do me any good. I need to (theoretically) weigh the bucket down when empty so I don't have a tendency to flip backwards going up a grade. Adding weight to the rear is the last thing I'd want to do. Now, whether adding the ballast to all four tires would work is something I'd have to have an engineer work out unless someone on here has actually down it. The M371 has such a close wheel base, I rather doubt it will work. [/QUOTE]
