One of my cousins was killed recently when the tractor went over backwards, they were trying to tow some other piece of equipment out of the muck. I know there are ways to cheat with a tractor, towing things like logs and other heavy things, and a lot of people do it, each to their own, it's still a dangerous thing to do, if that log were to bind up on something, and your front axle is already off the ground, things can get out of hand quicker than you can react to it. I've tested my old 850 ford on a few things, seems the wagner loader certainly helps add weight to the front, and hitching below the axle helps. I've towed a few small logs up hill on occasion, although it seems to handle them well, it is still a stressful ride, so I kinda refrain from doing it, never know, get careless one time, don't take much,
