Your set up will carry a good sized load. With the hills and valleys where I do much of my trapping I prefer to balance my weight more evenly front and rear.I have a hinge drop down tray on my front rack to carry animals so I dont get too back heavy.

I have turned a machine over once and I dont really want to do that again.For reasonably flat ground that would be a good set up.With our terrain I would have a real back flip over problem due to the steep inclines in many areas.When I trap Georgia or Arkansas and need to haul in a big load of traps for set ups or hauling out a big catch I have a small trailor I tow behind the ATV.
