Hi fellas, I grew up in Illinois on flat land. We had 2wd row crop tractors. Wasn't a foot of elevation change across the county. Now Im I the missouri ozarks and we have hills, real hills. My farm has about 70 acres of ridgetop pasture. The pasture ends at the woods where it really gets steep. No way to mow down no place to turn. I can see from aerial photographs it was mowed parallel to the slope. Some is getting blackberries and sumac encroaching. Id like to mow it. My pickup has an off-road display that shows the slope angle. I drove around on it and the worst I saw was 12 degrees. Degrees not percent. Truck feels fine but up in my tractor it feels sketchy at 10 percent measured in my truck. My tractor os a Kubota m5-091 4wd. Im pulling a 12 foot batwing and Im set up withs the rear tires spread out about 89 inches outside edge to outside edge. Rears are 18.4-30 r1 radials with alcohol fill. Have a cast weight on each too. If I keep the loader low (or should I take it off) does this sound reasonable assuming SLOW. That tractor cost me what you used to get a house for. I sure aint interested in rolling it. I got a inclinometer Im gonna mount in the cab. Has a ball bearing that rolls shows the angle. I wouldnt think twice about it in my case 455c crawler. This thing sets up high seems scarier. Please share your thoughts this board has got me out of more jams than I can count with my equipment that averages older than me. [/img:0465195f8c]

Today's Featured Article - Earthmaster Project Progress Just a little update on my Earthmaster......it's back from the dead! I pulled the head, and soaked the stuck valves with mystery oil overnight, re-installed the head, and bingo, the compression returned. But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
