Roy,

By ballast, I meant to pump liquid ballast (calcium chloride and water) into the tires. The advantage of liquid ballast is that it is lower in the tire and will lower the CG even more than weights. You can add ballast (or wheel weights) to the front tires as well. Your wheel weights are a good start. Of course extra weight will make your tractor sink even faster in soft ground.

Really, the best solution is to stay away from uncertain ground. I nearly stuck my 4000 in a pond doing exactly what you did.

I'm not aware of a roll bar available for the hundred series tractors.
