Pulling a stump like that is going to be hard with just a JD "B" to pull with. What I have done for a good many years is burn them out. I have several old tractor rims that will fit around most stumps. I put two deep around the stumps. They just contain the heat to make the fire hotter. I then pile the center with good seasoned wood. Light it and go do something else for a few hours. Then put more seasoned wood on it to keep good hot coals going. Just keep the fire going until it has burnt what you want gone. The hot fire will dry out the stump so it will burn. Most times the fire will follow the bigger roots down in to the ground for several feet.
I was shown this by an older fellow that had cleared a lot of ground with just a team of horses and an axe. It works better than digging them up because you get rid of more roots.
