I had the lower pin on one of the 2 lift cylinders on my tilting deck disappear on a dirt road. Trailer did a nice pole vault, cylinder bent, hoses snapped. I tied things up & got to the camp site a mile away. I was able to unload the side by side by gravity by backing up slowly. Loading required 1 or 2 guys standing on the back to tilt it down to re-load the side by side. If I recall I was able to get the rear tires on before it started to un-tilt. It wasn't fun, but wasn't the end of the world.
Several dead batteries, resolved by jumper cables and/or replacing the battery.
The blown hoses from the pole vault was probably actually a better scenario than a dead pump as the cylinders could move freely. A dead pump would lock the cylinders in place. Pretty messy & bad from the environment but you could crack lines & use the loader to tilt the deck. Then the weight of the machine on the front of the deck to un-tilt it.
