Brazilton KS
Stripped down and on steel wheels, they really aren't all that much heavier.   The main downsides are the lack of 540 PTO and the 8 speed PS trans.  There's huge holes in the operating range where you simply cannot find a gear, they don't shift all that nicely, and when they die, you can't really afford to have one worked on in a dealer shop.  They are quite reliable, but eventually everything quits and it's not like they are two years old anymore.
