I'm planning to get a 1025R TLB from my local dealer next week (he's getting it on the lot so I can drive it first). This will be my first tractor, so I'm new to all of this. I'm having the dealer install the starter wheel weights but not getting a MMM as I already have a ZTR.
Reading many posts on this forum convinced me that I need a set of forks. I'm planning to go with 36" forks as I think the smaller size will be easier to maneuver and it's not a huge property. A lot of the older posts are concerned about weight but, as of 2021, I'm not seeing a lot of difference there. Current options I can see below (weights are best I can find for the frame + 2 36" forks):
Looking like AP10F is the one (after edit)
Would greatly appreciate comments (on this issue or others) from the members here who have more experience than I do. If any info above is incorrect, LMK and I'll update the original post.
