Subject: RE: adding rolling basket to field cultivator



SW Minnesota, Lyon County
I had always wanted to add one to my 4800 but was told it wasn't heavy enough. I've got a 300 gallon tank on mine and finally broke the hitch last year. I'm sure the basket would add negative tongue weight and on my 4800, the tongue is the weak point. I know the 4300 is heavier. I've seen JD 980's with rolling baskets on them. I ended up buying a crumbler to pull behind mine. Not ideal but oh well. I had looked at Flex till baskets for field cultivators when I bought my basket for my 527B. They were the ones that cautioned me on the 4800 not being heavy enough. Maybe they have changed their opinion.
