I've got a little problem

Took the 65 out for a little drive today to try to diagnose some problems. Got a bigger problem now. if there is any way for the beast to sink it will sink because of
that huge loader. Have a guy coming to hopefully buy the loader if I ever get it outta here. Gonna try the truck first and it that doesn't work I'll ask a farmer
neighbor to come pull it out. I can jack up the front wheels, put boards under them, and back up until the front wheels fall off the boards again. To top it all off
it's snowing and raining and getting everything wet and muddy.

When this situation happens to me I actuate the bucket to the full dump position, place pressure down on the bucket, place tractor in reverse and actuate bucket to the scoop /fill position.....at same time back tractor up.

I tried that, and did get probably 3 feet back, but the ground is so soft that after that I could only get huge scoops of dirt.
 
If you really got to get it out of there now, place planks or any junk wood or tin under/infront of the wheels, and like building a pyramid, move from what you just ran over to back infront. Till you are on solid ground. Or wait till? morning? see if it freezes solid again, or dries up next week. depends how much patience you got. Inching your way out using the edge of the bucket will work, but if the whole plot is wet like that, it will take ya all day and half of tomorrow. Just remember to not go there again in this sorta weather.
 
kept slowly going out of the worst by putting boards under all 4 wheels, then just as it got dark got to the point if I kept wood under the wheels it would come out with
the bucket. So it's back home now.
 
What model simplicity is your little tractor, i have a landlord 2110? They are a workhorse like the mf65 which i have to.
 
If you are getting rid of the loader well, so be it but we had a 165 2 wheel drive with a loader ( and no power steering! ) and it was as much use as a chocolate teapot until we rigged up a concrete counterweight to fit on the three point linkage . The difference it made to it was truly amazing.
 
I've always used small rocks that we have picked up in the field. We burried a bunch over the years in some fairly deep holes. This one doesn't look bad.
