nice tracks http://scranton.craigslist.org/grd/3721116592.html must be fun with no counter weights

That is probably worth it to someone just for the tracks. I would probably consider it if it would have been closer to me.

As for counterweights, you can operate it without the weights (I have done so with mine) but does make it a little tippy with a heaping bucket

I would think without counter weight, you would stress the front idler and roller more than usual. Is that a mount for a backhoe? gregjo1948

It's definitely harder on the front of the undercarriage to run without the counterweights, but probably has as much to do with overall balance.

Yes, that appears to be a hoe bracket with a custom hitch bracket pinned in.

actually that is a ripper/counter weight bracket the hoe bracket is longer ...mine has a 4in1 and i have a ripper and 5 weights on it (one more than it came with) and it is still hard to back up out of a hole even with my fat ass in the seat

Richard is right on closer inspection- the hoe bracket also has a larger cross bar across the top. it's hard to see in the photos but does appear to tbe the toolbar for ripper.

the hoe bracket is all one piece the ripper bracket is two pieces no cross bars and shorter
