I also have a Carry-all, forget the exact size..2'×4' maybe. Angle iron, steel mesh. For 2" standard square tubing for Class 2, 3 and 4 receivers. Use it on my Burb to haul deer to the processor, keeps the mess out of the truck.

I vaguely remember a post about purchasing a bumper hitch that had 2" square tube, from I think Harbor Freight. Attached to drawbar, so you could use a Carry all on the back. Since my Cub came with a plate bolted to the drawbar, and both 1-7/8" and 2" trailer balls, and I bought the trailer, I kinda shelved the idea, but now, I may resurrect it, to make additional use of the carry-all. Already have an extra ball mount, to be able to tow the trailer as well. Hmmm.

Sure do like the idea of a set of forks for the front tho.

Well now. How much weight have you lifted without breaking anything?

Quick answer - enough.
Was moving some blocks today. 18 total on this pallet.

Sweet. Looks like you have a fork set on your Cub front end loader. Any load bearing on the lower half of the bolster, or mounted diff than 54A?

Yes, but that is on a 1000 loader, which is a bit different than a blade frame.
