Pushing the lifting capacity of a 2021 John Deere 3039R and new add on to my Truck!

An owner-operator video split between two topics: truck upgrades (added leaf springs, Timbrens, and new BF Goodrich tires) and a first attempt at unloading a ~2,800-lb skid of salt using the 3039R with forks and a ballast box for counterweight. The tractor content is light, he discovers the practical lift limit through trial and error but gives no spec numbers. Best for owners curious about real-world loader capacity with a ballast box.
