Hello, chris2, that tractor is not very stuck. Put the bucket on the ground , flat, and lift the front wheels out of the mud. Then lift the rear out with the backhoe. NB gently does it.
I have used this method on a JCB (wgt about 5 tonne). Also, I learned this from commercial operators.

Hello, Xfaxman, is the 4x4 factory original, or is it after market? Here in new zealand they only came out in 2wd which was a shame as 4wd would have made this tractor. It was light well balanced and handled very well in hill country from pumice to wet clay (natural grease) and that was only 2wd.

Factory option, and a Perkins 2.5L 3-cyl diesel, 41 PTO hp., made from 1983 to 1998.
Had to winch it out.
It was high-centered.
Info from, TractorData.com Massey Ferguson 240 tractor information

Indeed they are, first pics they're so packed up I thought they appeared to be R4s on the back. Nice jeep! Seems just "small" enough to do the job :thumbsup:
