In my opinion probabally the heaviest would be a balzer they come in about 1000,1200,1800 bu i think. Next would be the kinze 1050 3 versions track, duels, floater tires, then brent avalanch. all three have good and bad but all 3 are good carts. built with alot of steel.

You are right about the weight, but I would not count on the Balzer as being reliable. They still have a lot of problems to work out. They are the "new kid on the block" and haven't been around long enough to get all the bugs worked out. And don't try to pull a Balzer with a John Deere or Cat track tractor. When you turn right or left the drawbar goes in the oppisite direction and signals the Balzers steering apperatis that you are going that way and you end up jack knifed.

We really like the avalache. Just traded for another one. U really need at least a 300 horse plus tractor with powershift to pull a cart this big especially when it gets wet. We get buy without the powershift but definately are looking for a tractor with one.

We use an 8410 and 8760. We pefer the 8760 so you can see in the truck a lot better. It is a very large stream of grain to keep in the truck when runnng it wide open. I don't have any experience with the track tractor or the scales. It probably would work ok. Most of the custom harvesters in our area used front wheel assist tractors orginally, but now most use 4wd.
