Oh golly, how many times? The most recent was four years ago, backing my Deere 630 with loader on a deckover gooseneck trailer. The clutch was dangerously worn where it was either go or no-go and the clutch linkage was so worn and sloppy I had to reach way up there to engage it. Top it off with a stiff neck and worst of all, a touch of vertigo going on in my head. When I got it backed on the trailer and stopped, my right rear wheel was a good half off the edge of the trailer deck. The rear tires are 13.6X38's so there wasn't much tire still on the trailer. Everything leading up to it was bad, but we old bull headed farmers will still go ahead and do it even if it might kill us, and this one was a few inches from killing me.
The clutch is now smooth as satin, completely overhauled, complete with new tight linkage. Will I back another tractor on a trailer when I have vertigo? Depends on how stubborn I feel. Jim
