The issues of simulation studies driving dynamics of wheeled forestry machine-tractor units on the surface with obstacles are considered. The method of simulation modeling in CAD SolidWorks and CAE SolidWorks Motion is used. A simplified 3d-model of the MTZ-82.1 agricultural wheeled tractor was created, preserving all the main geometric and mass-inertia parameters of the moving elements. The tractor model was equipped with front and rear mounted modular forest tillage implements in the transport position. The research was performed on a virtual track with four different types of obstacles similar to those found in forest conditions. In a computer experiment, three different schemes of units were studied and the following parameters were obtained: wheel lift height, lateral displacement of the center of gravity, and linear speed fluctuations. Analysis of the results showed that the 0+1 scheme (rear-mounted single-row harrow) was the most stable. The heaviest scheme 1+2 (front-mounted drum chopper and rear-mounted two-row harrow) also had satisfactory stability. The least stable was a tractor equipped according to the 0+2 scheme (rear-mounted two-row harrow). The virtual experiment allowed us to study the dynamic stability of various forestry units in the transport position and establish the most stable configurations.
