[QUOTE="Conagher, post: 184550, member: 1818"] sidney411, Here's a trick I've used with success several times that does not require an anchor point near by. Get two strong poles about as long as the tractor. I usually just cut down a couple of straight elms approx. 4 - 6" diam. Lay one pole on each side of the tractor up against the wheels. Pole should be long enough to reach the back of the back tire and the front of the front tire.
