Used to do that on nearly every corner if I let it. I had to keep a very close eye on it. Much better now! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pullstart 62,840 #4 Posted June 26, 2023 I know this is gonna make me sound like a little wamby pamby, but all I see is leaves of three. Let ‘em be! Poison Ivy sucks and I feel like when I’m in a forest, I spend more time looking for that than enjoying the woods 1 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Backing up a short wheelbase trailer is very similar to herding cats!! 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ranger 1,750 #7 Posted June 26, 2023 There’s nothing worse than trying to reverse with a trailer that has a wide track and a short drawbar! Especially in a straight line😬🤬 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not that we would be prone to pushing our luck but to the best of my knowledge we don't have any on the land except maybe right out by the roadside. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That trailer will be lifted with a boat winch. The crane assembly will stay on the tractor so it can be used separately. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
