    Implement Process for Preparing New Land

    Auger some holes in the ground, and take the dirt and have a soil analysis done. See what you're working with as far as the soil type and nutrients. Hard pack sometimes means high clay content. Horses or not. Not so good for crops. Next step would be figuring your cost to make it good. A...

    Lightbar to Cab?

    Are the factory front and rear cab lights not bright enough? Do you have the factory front and rear cab lights? I do. And they work fine. Work thru the dash switch. Plug and play. Definitely not 3K. If you have the factory lights and they are not good enuf, find a cheap led light bar and...

    So what would you tell your grand kids?

    Yeah, @fried1765, that follows it due to beliefs. I won't go there and save us all the trouble. Which political side your on is usually based on personal beliefs about life here on earth. If you believe that the world and your life is just by chance thru evolution and nothing really matters...

    BX24 Handles on Side of Fender will not come off.

    Use a small rotary cutter, like a Dremel... and cut the nuts or screw heads off.

    BX23S 12v accessory plug live?

    Ask your dealer. But, direct to battery terminals will supply more efficient power than a cigarette plug everytime.

    So what would you tell your grand kids?

    OK. I appreciate the OP's original situation. I responded. Youngsters these days have no respect. My apologies, I know this a tractor forum. And I may be out of line. Do it for Love. I'm not giving suggestions for fixing our tractors very often. Despite my history in tractor operation...

    So what would you tell your grand kids?

    Right. 100 percent. Thank you @WIHedgehog. Good and evil is based on speculation by mortals. Mortals with a soul. Like you all, if you are reading this. Animals and insects don't consider it. Those creatures just do as they please for their own benefit. Why do you consider it? ...

    So what would you tell your grand kids?

    Many years ago, one of my grandson's rode with me in my Jeep as I showed his parents the way to our previously set up campsite in the desert. He and his parents, (my daughter and her husband), didn't know the way to the campsite. They followed me in my Jeep. Anyway, so my 10 y/o grandson...

    Lx3310

    Buy a LX2610 or LX2620 with cab, if the extra issues with regen are a concern. The HP difference isn't that much. Although most folks don't have issues with Kubota tractors over 25 or 26 HP with the diesel - save the world mods.

    Who would have thought??

    So true. It depends on the local demographics to the area. Go to a big city, younger folks are the primary stoners. Cars full of smoke and if you"re beind them they are usually lolly-gagging along. You can definitly tell its pot if you can smell it. Not a user myself. Tried it once in high...

    Unleash the Lathe dogs!!!!!!! who knew?

    Obviously not for a concealed carry. LOL There are grooves on the sides of the slide. Those are to help you grip the slide. Look into an HK SP5 or similar for what you think you want. If you are disabled, look into a Glock with extended charging extensions on the rear of the slide. But if...

    Elder Care

    Gone are the old days when A child moves in with mom and pop and take care of them until the end. Or mom and pop move in with one of their children. At least in this country. Too much pride going on.... IMO Money is the root.

    Elder Care

    I went through this the last couple years. Mom had dementia and my step father demanded to keep taking care of her at home. Both in their 80's. Last year, they finally they moved into assisted living after mom didn't know any of us, including her husband. Memory Care because my mom had...

    Truck / trailer questions

    Edit, My appolgies... Much of the following will not make sense to the non-Jeep folks. Sold my 05' TJ Rocky Mountain 4.0 six in 2019 because it had to pass smog in CA every two years. Failing the last 6 year's, I had to let it go. Sad shame too. Mine had Detroit's front and rear, tummy...

    Truck / trailer questions

    I towed my B7100 with FEL, tiller and box scraper on a 12' Dico single axle tilt bed trailer with no trailer brakes. With my 1978 Toyota Hilux longbed pickup. In the late 1970's. Had many pucker moments. I was young and foolish. So you can tow whatever you can hookup. Tow a Kubota MX with a...

    Truck / trailer questions

    I have agree with this post, due to @Fly5guy even questioning getting a 3/4 (or 1 ton) vs 1/2-ton. In most tractor hauler situations a 3/4-ton at least, is usually without question. Stated respectfully. The upside to 1/2-ton is registration and insurance, particular to your state. Where I...
