I have loaded rear tires, about 75 lbs of cast iron on each wheel and a weight box with about 250 lbs in it. with my 225 lbs you would think that would be enough ballast!!!!!! I really wish it had front wheel assist. Been thinking about that idea for quite some time now. I will have to say that it is very handy and useful. The wife uses it all of the time for yard and garden work. How about some pictures of your 284 with the loader?
I'll try to remember to get some pictures. It's kinda an ugly duckling with the turf tires.
