Went to load a container at the owner's son farm. The hand comes out and says I'm not sure if you'll get back there and something about ruts. So I get on the golf cart and we drive across the grass behind a building to a container.
It hasn't rained her in a week but there was a tonne of dew this morning. Anyways my stabilizer bars were sinking so I built some shoring.
I think I added some what looked like crane Matt's but were made out of 2x6's underneath that I found. The hand drove up at this point and said that he tried telling the son that it was too wet and that you can't tell him anything. I nod and agree with him, he drives off and 20 minutes later, I get a call from dispatch asking if I was stuck, I explained that I had to build some shoring underneath to support by stabilizer bar.
I moved it a little too much one way and it popped off the side
So I decide to try put some metal underneath to try get it to pop over
That didn't work, I ended up dropping the tail again for some reason and tried it again and it popped up over the edge when it was at a 45 degree angle.
Finished product
