h the fun your going to have getting a track loader out . To save a lot of fussen cussen , my best advice it to find someone with a dozer twice the size as the track loader that has a winch and snatch blocks . Then also take a chain saw and start cutting logs twice as wide as the pads on the loader . Over the younger years of working in the oil patch around here i became and expert on getting stuck equipment out of the mud . You have never lived till ya have to pull and Adico (sp) self drive drilling rig that weighed in at over 210000 lbs stuck in the mud five feet deep . Two 850 john Deere dozers with Hyster W7 F winches and a D7G with a W 7 F winch . Each winch had 70000 lbs of line pull and each one was double snatched blocked with 1 1/8 Blue wrap drill line . and seeing what happens when you break a inch and a eight cable . Now you did not say what size track loader ?? is it a 10000lb machine or is it a 50000 lb machine . If it was summer time then you MIGHT get a couple big wreckers close . If it is a small one you MIGHT be able to get a forty to fifty thousand pound excavator close and dig it and help pull it . Track loaders are not soft ground friendly , even LGP dozers have there limits . As it was once said a man has got to know his limits.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
