Do what the four wheelers do, get a forklift and or a tractor with a loader on it and put a sling around the vehicle to be tested and lift one side until it starts to go over, but you want to sling it so that it can't go completely over, extreme caution should be used here, keep other people well away when doing this test. once you get it to its balancing point you can use an angle finder to get your tipping angle. Once you know that number you can mount an inclinometer on your tractor, then when opperating the tractor try to stay about 10-20% away from the tipping angle. be careful Jim K
