Tractor is Loaded

The Case tractor is loaded onto our flatbed trailer. That is the good news.


The bale spear fit under the loader. We put the spare tire up against the spear and neither will move.




Hubby is checking to make sure the chains and straps are tight.
The tractor is chained on, and just fits onto the trailer.


But barely. There is no extra room for the tires on the left.


and only a very tiny gap on the right.


The front tires are a little wider, and the tractor had to be "shimmed with the front end raised to get the tractor on.


The tractor is ready to go.



Hey, wait for me. I'm still taking pictures!



We're on our way to Nebraska. The bad news is that our truck started leaking transmission fluid about 3 hours after picking up the tractor, at 5 in the afternoon. We stopped at a GMC truck dealer and they got the truck into service early the next morning. Parts need to be ordered. We were able to rent a truck at the dealer price, and we were able to come home.

Then we get to make the 11 hour trip to pick up the tractor and truck next week.
