We often hear guys saying their loader isn't level - cutting edge is higher on one side than the other.
Often, those guys are concerned something might be bent.....
Rear tire pressures can be the culprit.
I put my loader on the other day. One side ~1" higher than the other - WTF?!?!?
Guess what - even with the little 26x12x12 tires on a BX2360, it makes a difference.
Put the compressor on the opposite side rear tire made that 1" up in less than 10 seconds, and the tire is not over-inflated. In fact, added a little to the other side, too!
With bigger tractor/tires, that effect would be greatly exaggerated.
Lesson....start with the simple stuff!
