[QUOTE="double browtine, post: 5879582, member: 9490"] I think a trackhoe or backhoe is your best bet. I have a case 450c dozer and it takes a while to dig around a tree and push it over. The hardest tree you’ll ever try to push over is a sweetgum! I had one that was 24” diameter at the ground. I dug around it 4’ deep and cut all the side roots. Piled all the dirt up and made a ramp to drive up. With my blade raised all the up, and tilted with the bottom point of the blade at about 14 ft up on the trunk, I finally pushed it enough for it to fall over. I can’t imagine trying to push out stumps with only a few feet out of the ground. It would take a D6 and lots of digging all the way around it! [/QUOTE]
