I went to pick up a Case VAC parts tractor that had flat front tires, one rear tire up and the other side riding on the rim. I got a neighbor to haul it in his 5x10 trailer the 5 miles back here. I was puzzling over how to load it since there was no tractor there to push it in and I was going to use a come-along. The wife of the couple who owned it was there and she said that her husband had moved it out of the woods edge onto the lawn by "turning something there on the back".

I thought I should tell the story and see if anyone else has done this sort of thing. Zach
