    Dump trailer questions

    If you have any seams along the bed that could take a bead of silicone sealant, that’s time well-spent. This is what I use:

    l2501 Box Blade Poll

    For me it comes down to covering my (spaced) R4 tracks and making sure I can at least have the option to head downhill, if needed—and there are plenty of hills, rocks, and clay to contend with here.

    JoeS insight?

    Guilty as charged, with being a 95% chucklehead. That said, I try to refrain from posting about topics I haven’t personally encountered. If there is a topic about a tractor hardware issue, I try only to comment on those issues I’ve experienced with my model. I see too many of the...
