EW, For what it's worth, I agree with you. However, won't the front axle hit a "stop" at some point in the rollover? Instead of just being a single free pivot point, you would be at a point where it would have to lift the far wheel off the ground and raise the tractor slightly. At this point, it seems like it would contribute to some resistance to rollover. At the same time, from my distant memory of jacking up the front end of a tractor, the front axle on that tractor had so much free movement that I think you would probably be too far gone before those "stops" actually even came into play.

How's that for the NEWGUY alienating half the group.

At least a couple of the "broken" tractors noted in this thread had 7308 loaders. When comparing a 6 year old tractor with a 7308 loader with a newer model with an "LA" loader, you see that the loader attachment to the tractor has been beefed up with significant bracing. I'm wondering if this was an effort to fix a design flaw in the previous setup. Because of the potential liabilities, I doubt NH would admit it, but is still makes me wonder.

Does anyone know of NH tractors with LA loaders breaking in half?
