those 575's are some good balers if you run the rpm's up high enough. we found that you need to keep them at about 2200 rpm to keep you from having problems.

well it looks pretty good. we made a hay wagon out of an old cotton wagon, but we only haul rolls on it. we can fit 8 rolls on it fairly easily, but that's an awful lot of weight for one of the tractors that we pull it with! I'm sure it takes a pretty stout fella to throw bales on that wagon.
