As I recall it was a study accomplished in some other country other than the US. For some reason I want to say Australia but that may be a fig newton of my imagination. A few years ago this subject came up again here on ATIS and I tried to find the published information but didn’t have luck then. Maybe someone who knows how to do a really good search on ATIS Archives can find my reference link. I’m guessing it was well over 10 years ago maybe even 15 years ago. The tests were very well documented and the Engineering Science was included showing how the COG changed between the two front ends, before and during a potential roll. It was a very well done engineering piece of work. I’ll do some web searching again and see if I can find the article. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal>Dean VP<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Snohomish, WA 98290<o:p></o:p></p></div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div><div style='border:none;border-top:solid #E1E1E1 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in'><p class=MsoNormal><b>From:</b> AT <at-bounces@lists.antique-tractor.com> <b>On Behalf Of </b>Jim Becker<br><b>Sent:</b> Sunday, September 1, 2019 10:10 PM<br><b>To:</b> Antique Tractor Email Discussion Group <at@lists.antique-tractor.com><br><b>Subject:</b> Re: [AT] Tractor safety<o:p></o:p></p></div></div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div><div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;color:black'>I thought I was the only one that had that repeated argument with George.
