don't get me wrong it's a sweet idea... but i would use it only as a complete last resort. i could see that horribly messing up the wheel or something worse.

When I was on the Farm we put one log under both tires (log under tractor) and then chain it on each side. Never a problem. guess we were lucky.

The hardware on a tractor is significantly more built-up then the wheels we can get on our Jeeps. Pretty cool video.

You can do things with a tractor you could never do with a jeep. That is a cool video

I have a '49 8N very similar to that and I've had it in much deeper mud and not gotten stuck. Musta been worse than it looked. Interesting idea.

Allot of different types of mud. Could be a peat bog type of effect.
