I swear that the misses has no fear. My best guess is that a cross slope we cross on occasion at the top of our yard is 15 degrees. There seems to be varying opinions to which degree loading the wheels , wheel spacers due to help with stability. Even varying opinions on what bolt pattern as someone said they thought it was 5.9 inches vs 6". If that is the worse slope of things and using common sense, should I do one or both. I mean, I kinda like the old gal...

Here is a previous thread with some information for you that is very relevant to your post.

I remember reading that thread. I don't have hills at my house to tip over on but I was in my back field and went into a hole I dug with my last tractor. I rode up on one side while the other side went into the hole. I thought for sure it was going to tip but it didn't, I don't like that feeling at all!!

I haven't had a feeling about tipping really, but this escapade made me think a bit harder. Earlier I had dropped a sequoia that had been planted close to the house at the top of the hill above that section. When she was positioning part of the trunk at the edge, it rolled down the hill. I went across that section of lawn with that trunk section on the forks. Made me think!
