Posted by Highboyford on December 05, 1999 at 16:42:04 from (63.17.117.22):

Seen the diagreements on wide vs narrow got me thinking what my closest call was.Had a s88 oliver with a loader narrow front.Had a large hill on a farm I was picking corn on I knew I couldnt make the hill pulling a knight 222 wagon filled with ear corn(should of only filled half way)So I take the hay field which had another large hill but I figured I could snake my way up to the top and be home free.Well it was snowing now to beat the band and I made it all the way to the top when I felt the rear wheels starting to kick out toward the bottom of the hill.not wanting to jackknife and slide down the hill,I quick jam the left brake swing tractor around and now I am facing down hill with a full wagon behind me on a hay field.Not good I think to myself lower bucket to almost ground(remeber plow furrow at bottom of hill right now)idle tractor way down, touch brake sure enough no help, think about jumping, hang on tight and ride her out.Heck of a bump corn flying heart beatting after hitting plow furrow.Get calmed down swing her around and made her the second time nothing broke and pigs were happy.Next day check bolts for frontend still tight can laugh now.
