This is my weekend project. Tractor in question is a B7510. Can anyone suggest a length dimension from the end point of the 3-point arm, to where the top link mounts ? Should it be in line vertically, or ahead, or behind ? Using a 35 gal. plastic drum. Going to put 25 gal of concrete in,aiming for around 500#,plus the draw bar, plus the 2" receiver, and various other holder type thingamabobs. Any suggestions welcome. Thanks.

The lower the weight is the better the roll stability improvement you will receive.
Consider putting your container on its side not standing up to accomplish this.
The other benefit is counterbalancing the loaded FEL bucket.
If you put your weight too far back, then, whenever your bucket is unloaded, your front tires may not have much weight on them.
