New woods truck. Ex Army 3/4 ton 318ci, D60 rear, D44 front, FT 4wd, NP203. Nothing special, just a big green beast. Damn near impossible to tip over, it goes thru the "tippy" places that the CJ is scared to go!

I've got a 4wd 20HP Drizzle JD tractor that would probably do it with the right "rigging". I dought the winch on my Cj would even come close. Tell ya what, if I ever do go axles up I'll post lots of pictures so ya'll can laugh at me! Pic of the Green Hornet added for effect :D

Yeah, I guess that would probably work.

Oh, it would be fun turning that big dodge back on its feet with the bucket!
The tractor will go anywhere, so long as its fairly flat. Once things get tippy the tractor is a death trap! Damn thing isn't wide enough to safely go over an anthill! Its like a CJ5, lifted and narrowed!
 
Damn, it's just a pickup. any decent size winch could pull it back over.

Its a very heavy pickup. My only winch is on a 74 Cj5, kinda light in the ass dept. Hopefully it'll never go on its side, but if it does it'll be a trick to right it.
