I need to try driving over rough surfaces and inclines. I'm curious too.
The large "power puller" wheels really helped too. They were a big
improvement over the old solid 24x43 wheels.

I may make another attempt, but not with this tractor. I keep breaking gears
and it's a terrible pain to replace them. The gear train really needs a
re-design, but it's just too compact and cramped.
I think I'll try something else next time and give myself more room!
