Gotcha! Still would be cool to have “tractor” tires ;-)

 

That’s awesome. Looks great!

 

yes and I will look for some weights for it . I like my other tractor but it will make my garden bigger

 

My garden is only 10x12 ft... I used a mantis 2 stroke jobber .... does what I need it to do

 

I sowed ours in grass this year after we got done

 

80x70 wife wants it bigger

 

Never had that complaint ... nuk nuk nuk

 

I’ve never known tractor tires to wear unevenly, if you checked the pressure and they were the same it should’ve been level. Interesting stump on this one.

 

Do you have a flat, truly level surface (concrete slab, etc) that you can use to do a true test?
1) With the bucket on, lower it to the concrete and see if there's an edge/corner that touches first.
2) With the bucket off, lower the lift arms and see if one touches first.
2-A) If no, the problem probably lies with your bucket itself. See if it rocks from side to side when it's off the loader assembly.
2-B) If yes, measure the axle clearance to the floor on both left and right, front and rear. If the measurements are the same from on both sides of each axle, the problem lies with your loader frame. If the measurements are different, the issue is tire size/OD related.

 

Interested to see what you find.

 

But is it? Like, does it touch down more or less flat, or on one edge/corner first?

Edit-- I must have missed it, what led you to suspect something being bent in the first place? Pins not lining up for the quick connect?

 

Ah.

I've honestly never been too impressed with the 'universal skid-steer hookup' design. Super convenient vs a pinned bucket when it comes to changing attachments, but just a thin piece of square tube is supposed to stabilize all of that torque? I know it would add more weight (and delete the associated lift capacity, and lift capacity is life ) but I've always thought that the skid-steer hookup design deserved a crossbar top and bottom.
Yes, the attachment itself helps to stabilize and distribute the torque loads, and yes, you're supposed to lift at the center of the attachment. But lifting heavy loads at inconvenient angles is what tractors are FOR!!

I couldn’t stand it, I went and got that blade today. I knew it tilted and angled either way, I didn’t know it offsets either way as well. I’m glad to get it.

 

Pretty sure this is the original cutting edge and bees nest.
