They are 900kg from memory. Not very common mind you.

Which model Fastrac? the 4000 series it is 900kg, the 8000 series it is 900kg with an option of adding another 700kg as an extra slab. Fastracs should be 50:50 weight distribution over front and rear when in work ideally.

Making one to fit knight remount cradle to be lifted on and of with handler didn’t want to go overboard with weight

I never had enough weight in mine to make it effective.

Does anyone know the front and rear axle weights when empty? They're very heavy on front. I can spread fert with 2t in spreader with no front weight.
