Hello, I am planning to install a front blade to my mf2615. Planning to install 100x50x6mm. 4x2 from rear Axel to front and pick up 4 bts on clutch inspectio plate.
I'm thinking if I make the RHS heavy guage, the belly plate heavy say 12mm. This will all result in lowering the centre of gravity because it's all below bell housing height.
Do you guys think I'm right.
Ps I have already pushed wheels out to Max. filled with water.

Also contemplating filling the rhs with concrete.
Any advise would be greatly appreaciated

What is RHS?
When you say "front blade", do you mean a blade or a loader?

If it's just a blade, why do you need to lower the center of gravity?

Since you've already filled your tires (good idea), can't you just add a ballast box to your 3-point hitch and/or some suitcase weights to the front?

Suitcase weights off the front of the tractor:

An example of a ballast box. Fill with sand, stone or whatever you have that's heavy.

I don't specifically need to lower the center of gravity, but I live In steep country so any opportunity to reduce roll-overs is good and it seemed this mod will assist in lowering C of G
