Subject: RE: pulling two gravity boxes


He has common sense. We don’t know the roads, hills, size of tractor, traffic.
I have a 425 bu box I load 400 bu to pull with NH TS110 fwa. It pulls it well. Up even decent hills. I added 200 bu box. On two hills I had to stop, go into low range. So I stick with one box. My bigger tractor has wide duals.
Definitely heavy load first. Then as much as you are comfortable in 2nd.
*but I would not fill front to max*. I figure 60 bu lite, if 2nd not 2/3 full. Easier on tires, frame, bearings. 3500 lbs over max might reduce wear.
So @300 front @200 rear.
