I can see what you mean. Do you have one?Case row track will put the power down, as the tracks have no option but both be flat on the floor whatever else is going on.
When you say it always sat on it's back rollers, have you compared to a Challenger in the field, and did the 8370 you tried sit on it's back rollers?I had a 8345rt and as said it always seemed to be sat on its back rollers,
Very nice to drive with better draft control than the challenger, but I would not have a Ivt, personally I'd look at the the E23, a demo 8370rt I had it in and it was a awesome.

Did your 8345 have side weights as well as front weights?The 8370 I had on the drill so it wasn't really pulling, the 8345 always seemed that it needed more weight upfront, it also seemed to nod a lot on the road.
The one I have looked at has extra weights at the side of the engine at the back of the Radiator, quite a few of the ones I have seen have them fitted.It had front idler weights and JD pack front weight. Not seen a JD with track weights like the challengers have tbh
Personally from my experience no. JD always sit back on rear idler when on real heavy draft no matter what weight is on front as can’t properly ballast the track frame like a challenger! I’ve had more experience with bigger ones (MT865+) but no twin tracks are great when turning wouldn’t say much in it. When trialling a 775 with full track frame weights and 16 idler weights pulled level at all times and turned best I’ve seen from a twin track level and without to much scuffing. But speed and operator have more to do with it!
Do you have 25 or 30 inch tracks?I have the extra weights on the side of engine 8x50kg only use them when moleing. I take front weight off to when drilling and cutli pressing just leave front idlers on
