Traction I got stuck

Good pics. Good to see someone else gets mired in the mud. I just have never had a camera with me. Go figure.

I know how you feel brother!!!! The rest of this picture would show two Ford superduties buried right behind the tractor. Gotta have respect for the buddy that gets stuck trying to help ya out!!! I'm glad it all worked out for ya.

Deja Vu!
10 days ago, I started across a spot that only looked a little wet and quickly found out how deep a mud bog can be after a bitter winter. The FEL only goes so far down and had a neighbor who first tried to pull me out and went back for his block and tackle. I will no longer drive over a wet spot in Spring!

Most people with any time on a tractor have a "got stuck" story. I do of course. Using a JD4700 with FEL and 6 ft bush hog I got into a swamp I had mowed through many times but there was this one section ... you can guess the rest. In right up to the axle housings. I was able to lift the front end with the bucket and place old fence posts under the wheels but not the rear wheels. Lifting the hog just sank the rear tires deeper. Finally inched it out about 6" per pull by curling the bucket back toward the tractor. The bucket pulled me out. That is with 17" wide tires on the rear ...

One wonders how people ever got by in the days when they only had 2WD tractors!

I am very surprised that the truck and winch were able to get you out back in 2011 -- just realized this is an old story being publicized by TractorByNet.

I was on vacation this week. I was going to dig geo therm trenches, but I didn't get the parts to get started. I thought I would work on the pond. I did get some work done, but the tractor didn't want to leave. I backed into the area and dug. When it was time to go, the outriggers didn't want to let go of the ground. I had to get the Toylet with the rear winch to get the tractor out. I broke my new mirror off the truck, but the cage saved the door.

It all went down hill with the first sentence. If you had been at work it never would have happened!!! lol

I've never been stuck, but I have been temporarily detained.

My dad was trying to pull a ranger out and ended up like this.
