The tractor turned but the Combine wanted to go straight and run over me (hitch took a quick twist sideways)There wasn't much to do but keep going and the mud helped the back come around and follow. The Allis has a Farmhand loader on it with a protective frame work and 800 lbs of wheel weights on the back so personal danger was minimal but if I knew that machine weighs 11800 lbs plus the heavy Corn head I would of been afraid to try that with the WD. Straightening the tongue/linkage and taking the hydralic hoses off and loose helped on the trailing a lot. It still was awful light in the back and wanted to bounce. cleddy [Reply]  [No Email]
