|
|
I am looking at a 620 wide front.vs a 60 tricycle. The weights as listed in Tractor data show a 620 at 6800 operating wt. All the ads on Tractor house show 6460 lbs. My trailer is a 16 ft car hauler rated at 7000 with 2 axles and brakes on both. Is the 620 wt. pushing the limits of the trailer to much? I have hauled a 60 with no problems. They show a wt. of 5300. Truck is rated at 9500 towing capacity.
What is the actual wt. of a 620? Thanks |

jd50a, your GVWR is 7000#, so you have to figure the weight of the trailer plus the weight of the tractor and not go over 7000#. It's the weight rating on the tires that usually limit you. Overloading tires is not something I would recommend. |

I took my 620 w/f to a tractor pull this fall. It has flat top fenders, 3pt., 2 side weights and 2 front weights. I weighed in with me on it at 7400 lbs. |

5300 is the shipping weight for a 60. Operating weight up to 7400.
620 shipping weight about 5800. Operating weight up to 8800.
You are most likely overweight with a 60 on a 7k trailer. |

I'd rent or borrow a trailer with a higher capacity. Suit yourself but I always carry two spare tires. |
