When I bought my property a few years ago, I had a similar problem. The neighbors would come down my 1/2 mile drive and cut thru my pasture to get to theirs instead of driving around. I never saw who was doing it, but I could see the tire tracks. When it rains they tore up my field. I spoke with them and they claimed it was not them. So I put up a fence around three sides of my property. EXPENSIVE!. Came home one day to find the lock and chain cut! Replaced. A week later cut again! Called the County Sherrif! No good. Then I went to the extreme and drove nails into 1x4s and lined the field. As I was coming home a wrecker was in my pasture stuck trying to pull a 1.5ton truck full of hay out of my wet pasture. I blocked the drive and called the sheriff and told them they would wait on the sheriff and my lawyer since I would be sewing them and the wrecker company for tresspassing, damage to property, etc. The wrecker driver stated to the deputy that he was told that it was their property. I did not sue, and the threat worked for about a year. Then I found a corner of my fence cut and a well travelled path thru it. Mended the fence and called him. He denied it but so far so good.

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.
