You're right, but it was my cousins dozer. I had to wait on his schedule...

It was not a pen, it is an old dairy farm and this was a pasture. I couldn't even imagine the smell if it was a pig farm!

Well, I finally got through this. The $183 hoses did not fit, PIA to get returned and refunded. Found another place, Stiener Diesel service that did the hoses right, for $55! Got them on in 2 feet of manure water and mud. My good hunting boots started leaking. My wonderful wife actually helped me getting the thing filled up and fired up! My cousin came over with his dozer and pulled me back to dry ground with ease! Life is good! Praise be to God!

…well, only he knows why he screwed up the new hydraulic hoses the first time and put a hole in your good hunting boots, but be glad he eventually straightened it all out! Praise be!

Much better!

I mean by leaving your Case 580 CK buried 2 feet deep in old manure with 2 blown power steering hoses?

I would love to have a Case 580 CK buried in the pasture like in the picture, it would be worth retrieving.
I have gotten my little B7610 buried up to above the axles, front and rear, with the front wheel catching between thick roots.
Took a bunch of 2x6's, a Hi-Lift, and a come-along or two to get it out.

I am curious, does anyone have personal experience using Yankum type ropes (kinetic ropes) to get tractors out?

All the best, Peter
