OK. Took the outboard tires off for some chain repair and some trenching for sprinkler system. Kinda dragging so have not put the tires back on. Had a little thing to do, grabbed the tractor, put on the york rake (8ft and not light), and headed down the hill. Realized i forgot something and flipped a "U'. Now the rake was up high but at the bottom of the U I got this odd feeling... look at the tiltometer, says 35, look at the back end and the rear uphill tire is up, look at the york rake high in the air and slammed it to the ground. Then looked at my missing outboards and said not going to do that again.

Finished the project with just 4 tires but I will never own a normal tractor on slopes. Gonna kill myself for sure....

Did you look in your seat to see if you left anything.
