Getting a tractor back on wheels

Posted by RWK in WI on April 10, 2004 at 06:42:59 from (169.207.139.252):

I loaned my Ford 860 with front snowplow and
rear pull type snowblower to a neighbor to
keep his driveway open for the winter. He
called me today ( right now I’m 275 miles
away ) with this problem. He has been
parking the tractor on the side of his driveway.
Now that the snow is melting in far northern
Wisconsin and the banks are going down it
seems he parked too far to the side of the
driveway. The right side of the tractor was on
packed snow that was beyond the retaining
wall. As the snow melted the right side of the
tractor dropped and the tractor in now on its
side over the wall. It is about a 3’ to 4’ drop
but not all the snow is gone yet. At this time
the right rear tire is still on snow, the tractor is
leaning against trees, and the left tires are in
the air. Right now the roads and drives are in
mud season so no big equipment could be
moved in. The town roads have a 3 ton limit
and strictly enforced.
I am looking for ideas on getting the tractor
back on its wheels and back up on the
driveway. I will be getting back there in a week
or two but it will be at least another month
before the mud will be gone to move heavy
equipment. Of course I hope to avoid
additional damage.
Thanks for any ideas.

Today's Featured Article - Show Coverage: Godfrey, Illinois Country Days - by Cindy Ladage. Except for last fourth of July's Old Gold show in Springfield, Illinois, I don't remember when it was so hot. Nevertheless, the heat didn't keep vendors and visitors alike from enjoying the third annual Country Day's Event. Jane Elliott said the event was originally a one man show. "Barry Seiler, owner of Country Town Farm Supply store used to invite people up to the Johne Deere store. He would give hats and a free meal for everyone that brings a tractor." Elliott said while this ... [Read Article]
