    Hope it's parked on a hill with the nose uphill and pull in front of it and throw the tractor in nutural and roll under it.
    Unless it was dropped with the dollies 6" over the ground then he'll have to get out and either try to push it under or try to turn the crank to get it higher in the air or,
    pull out and get further in front for a longer rolling run at it!

    I personally prefer a 13spd with 3.55.

    They got tired of the Govt bullschitt over emissions which also was giving Cat a bad name.

    I don't blame them a bit...actually I'd love to see Cummins, Detroit and Mercedes do the same thing. It would be interesting to see what The EPA would have to say about that.

    That's why they won't back the ACERT engines?
