Mike (WA) said: (quoted from post at 16:21:13 02/23/14) Farm Show magazine had one awhile back that a guy had built- it was an inclined platform that you drove the lawn tractor up, and when you got far enough forward it would go over center and come down (like a tilt trailer) with your rig level and about 2 feet off the ground.
