Allan, After applying much thought to your problem, it hit me a few minutes ago just what the problem is. It was so simple, I don't know why it didn't occurr sooner! It's your wallet!
Years ago, when you were a full-time farmer, that wallet was thin and light. As it rested in your back pocket, it applied no weight to the rear of the tractor, and didn't effect the tractors center of gravity.

I knew we could straighten this out. Your pal, John
