    I reckon the tractor was unrestrained freight on the trailer when it came adrift from the towing vehicle, not Aussie gear

    Should be good for those hard-to-get-to corners....

    Maybe it's a transformer and it got a cramp half way through turning into a building.

    If it were freight, wouldn't it have somersaulted and landed on it's roof or just rolled on it's side.

    I can't imagine any mechanism from falling off a trailer that would have shortened the wheelbase? Although falling out the back of an aircraft would have been sufficient to create that sort of damage.

    You won't find me on: faceplant; Scipe; Infragam; LumpedIn; ShapCnat or Twitting. I'm just not that interesting.

    Plenty of low-flying KWs on the Hume Highway - and yes I could imagine that as a mechanism of injury resulting in that sort of damage!

    No, No, no, it's a new form of 4WD, the smaller front wheels rotate the back wheels, has a bugger of a turning circle though, LOL, Regards Frank.

    I think Ian hit the nail on the head and i showed a mate that transports our work machines around and he says it certain looks like a loader that came off in transport, but how it ended up like it did he is scartching his head.

    This is one of my mates tractors, he was slashing long grass and hit a rock, in trying to save his tractor he tried to escape the fire but it caught up to him. The fireies found him running out of the smoke and as he clambered over a fence he colapsed from heat exhaustion and smoke inhalation (he is fine now). Thats hin in the pic about a week later
    cheers

    Yea right

    Wot they speed limit them wearing 205R 16 wheels and tyres and then drive on 295/80R 22.5 wheels and tyres!

    How else would they be overtaking you like you are going the other way when you are travelling at 110KPH and they are limited to 100 KPH?
