My JD 955 will pick up about 1000#, and easily hoisted my 16'x6"x6" posts high enough to move them into position for the 3' deep holes when we built our 100'x60' horse barn. It also lifted them in the holes to reposition them as needed. Curling/tilting the bucket will lift things too heavy for the lifting arms to pick up, so sometimes while lifting something near 1000#, I roll the bucket all the way forward, hook a chain onto the heavy item, and then roll the bucket back.
