Wendel is asking me, in what type of production I am here in Florida.

I would say that I am in the "Pencil Pusher Production". I spend my time in a office selling industrial sensors and dreaming about my wife and John Deere tractors and of course Holstein cattle. :-D

And taking lots of photos in my free time and on weekends. Isn't that the perfect life?

So, the device on the back, is added later, which puts most weight on the back of the tank so there is no drawbar pressure ?

Similar problems were seen in Holland when farmers began to build slurry injectors on the back of standard wide spread tankers: Our local machinery dealer has moved back many axles on those tanks, the season after he started to build injectors behind them.

At our place, a contractor came with a 25m3 Schuitemaker tank with a Maxxum MX170 pulling it: It would be a comparable combination with regards to tanker weight and tractor weight, to this Valtra and Houle. They said they had no problems at all. It had a lot of drawbar weight, and a nitrogen belly loaded top link cylinder to put weight on the tractors front axle.

The cheapest solution for your weight distribution problem would be to make your 1st axle a lift axle: I saw on Houles website that this tanker has hydraulic suspension, so all you have to do is install a spool valve to shut the struts of the front axle off from the other two and another one to operate the axle lift... Or swap the spring struts for double acting ones...

right on that shit tractor! :) :) :) :-)
