Hi. I am thinking of buying a TC24D/12LA loader with 756c backhoe, and am wondering how much traction the hoe will add to the whole thing. Thanks.

Bobby

Traction is a balance of tire type, inflation, ground conditions, 2 or 4wd, and proper ballast. It's a hard question to answer. For example, adding the hoe will add more weight to the rear which will actually unload the front tires, so in 4wd you may end up with less overall traction. ....

If you are considering R-1 tires the extra weight will drive them into soft soil and you will leave deeper tracks where ever you go.

If you are using turfs or R-4's you will see a major increase in rear traction with little or no increase in soil disruption. ....
