A bigger front-end loader with a 50k or (greater) liter bucket would work tremendous for farming and forestry, from filling and emptying the silage bunkers, manure bunkers, or just filling up tippers and chaser bins with ease and efficiency.

I would like to see coming up some new more modern add-ons like field watering and pest and fungus treating on the fields as many more crops to grow.

I have question- Are wheel weights really making wehicle heavier just like those used on 3-point hitch, or is it only pure cosmetic effeect? Because when I drive tractor equipped with stock tires and 3-point hitch ballast on the scale near biogas plant it shows additional amout of weight, eg. 1500 or 2300 kg, depends on weight size, but if I drive tractor equipped just with wheel weights it doesnt show any weight changes. It is still showing standard tractor mass. Also using wheel weights when working with frontloaders doesnt seem to help, where using normal 3-point hitch ballast feels very helpul and makes rear of the tractor less liable to separation from the ground.

As far as I'm aware, in the vanilla game, different wheels are just cosmetic. It doesn't stop me changing them for doing different jobs though!
The More Realistic mod apparently gives them a function, but I've not got around to trying it out yet.

If I'm not mistaken, with the latest update they've added extra traction for wides and duals.

Or you can edit a bucket by yourself In giants editor to make it have a higher capacity.

Which would make it impossible to pick up from the ground if the weight is also adjusted accordingly.

You could always attach a handful of weights to the back of the loader. Luckily loader arms, chassis etc are infinitely strong in FS!
There are some mining shovels out there, with silly capacity, but all the ones I've found are of poor quality, and don't tend to turn up on the more trustworthy websites.

I think you should attach a Big Bud as a rear weight to counter balance a 50k ltr bucket.
