Liz,

Is there not a way to install a pipe mounted counter-
weight on your tractor to increase its stability?

I don't know what kind of tractor you have,
but what I'm thinking of should be pretty easy
to fabricate if you have a good welder available.

Contact me off list if you would like me to sketch
it and mail the drawing to you, I would be happy to
do it.
