This is a tow part question and discussion. I am interested in pulling trees over, (small ones) and want about 75 to 100 feet of cable or rope. We use to do it with cable back in the early eightys but I was wondering what you guys think about rope. Second part of the question is pulling weight. If the tractor weighs about 3400 lbs what could you expect the static pull of it be in dirt, with 4x4. (30 hp). With its weight being 3400lbs, I would figure it only to pull 2500 to 2800 lbs best case. Is there a math equation to figure this or do you just double the weight and buy cable/rope at that weight range?? Thanks, Mike
