Hi George , Thanks ! That's good because I don't want to spend the money on a set . MAN are they getting pricey ! Twice the price as for a rear set or more . So which direction did you move the drawbar ? I'm not a puller so my first guess is up . Second guess is that if the fronts lift , the weight transfer to the rear goes up too . Carry the drag chain a little higher and it pulls down better on the rear of the tractor . I'd like to do some farmer pulls sometime . But the farmers I know around here ( not many ) are dead set against using a working tractor at a match . I don't understand their reasoning ( They say - " why pull the guts out of your tractor " ? ) What is field work for 10-12 hours a day compared to 30 seconds in front of a sled ? And the load applied on the track is steady compared to the varied conditions in a field . Like I say , just don't understand their reasoning . Anyway , Take care ! ...Randy

I was just looking at the radar - Are you getting clobbered with bad weather ? If not it looks like you are going to get it soon . Again Take Care and watch the weather !
