    7060 needs some weight

    No need to fill fronts. Just weights on wheels and filled tires with some kind of rear ballast. JMO. Have same tractor with cast centers and filled rear tires with a ballast bx with granite blocks in it. Figured at about 2200ish pounds. The rear ballast really made a difference besides just...

    Damaged Loader... How best to repair?

    Thats why I love my KSR option on my tractor! No bouncing with load. Plus, I have proper ballast also. People need to remember how hard it is on the front axle also. If backend is coming off ground, need more ballast. JMO

    Is a 900# grapple too much for a M7060 & LA1154

    Is a 900# grapple too much for a M7060 & LA1154

    I have a landpride sgs1578 on my cab 7060 and love it at 762lbs. If I had to do over, I would get the sgs 1566 @ 680lbs and 1 ft narrower. The narrow part is why I would get the 1566. My tractor handles the 1578 with 12 ft 10 -12 inch rnd logs with no problem. I do have cast centers and...

    3 point quick hitch

    Quick hitch is the ticket! Yea you might have to do some mods on the imp top link to fit but, if you can weld its no biggie. Love mine! Had it on a jd 790, had to mod the imp top link pins on some old imp. Got a new one when I got this M7060. Wrks great with a hydraulic top link.

    What is "Rear Ballast"? And why do you need it?

    I read people talking stability with rear ballast which is so true! But, when I read these post, I never see where people are talking about how important it is to also have rear ballast when lifting heavy to take the strain and pressure off the front axle.

    M7060 or M6060

    U will not regret it! Get all the things you have the $ for when u get the tractor. The m series is a very reliable tractor. Been around for a long time. This is my last tractor I hope and I got all the options except rear defroster, really nice! Think really hard about the cast rear...

    M7060 or M6060

    U get more than 10 hp with the 7060 if u go with the 12 speed more hydraulic flow, e pto and electro engagement of 4 wheel drive and i think with 7060 limited slip front end also. Not sure if 6060 has limited slip frontend. I had a 8 speed 7060 for 3.5 yrs. It had radial tires and filled...

    Third Function Valve for LA1154 on M4-071D

    This is not part of the ksr system for the soft ride on the loader? If so, not all parts are there.
