Good thought. When I winch logs with the winch on my TD 6 crawler I have to keep turning the crawler to keep the winch line spooling correctly on the winch drum. I didn't think about the necessity to keep the line spooling correctly on the drum. The trees would never be in perfect line with the winch. This would probably be another issue of safety with a wheel tractor. Pulling to one side could possibly overturn the wheel tractor. A lot of things to think about if I install a winch on the tractor. The John Deere 1984 John Deere 850 I have is very narrow. It would be very easy to tip it over if I installed a winch on it. Running the winch line under the tractor with a block on the front end would maintain proper spooling of the winch line and would probably be safer. I really appreciate the forum as many people have had a lot more experience with installing winches on wheel tractors that Me.
