I got 13 years on my original battery with No maintainers. So no extra expense of buying a maintainer, buying electricity and hoping to an extra year out of the battery. It was not dead when I replaced it, but when it started turning cold, it was slower to start and I didn’t want it to not start...

Not necessarily, used to be recommended to run the front tires in the “backwards” position when running a loader on the tractor for better traction backing up in tough loading conditions. Also, some people have found that the front tires wear better in the backward position.

If you have made it 21 years on those tires doing what you do with your tractor, then I wouldn’t worry about putting on anything different when you replace them. Go with the heaviest ply tire you can get. If you change to R-4 tires like everyone is pushing, you will need to buy 4 new tires and 4...

Industrial tire plugs. They are made for bigger tires than plugging auto tires. We used to have tires on our 3 payloaders and 2 backhoes repaired that way if the punctures weren’t too large. It takes a large tool to install and it may not perfectly repair, but might seal enough to get you out of...

You sure that your drawbar is in correctly? Manufactures make drawbar lengths to Standards based upon a certain distance from the tractor’s PTO shaft. If the drawbar is in backwards, you probably can’t get the correct distance. How is your drawbar too high? A tractor like a MX4700 is a small...

What size do you have. A local tire shop that has 6-8 places, that deals in car, truck, big trucks, industrial and tractor tires, list the 11.2-24 tire starting at $247 to $283.

Hopefully it’s correct and solves your problem. How far away from you did you find it?

Did you try googling it?

Congratulations Brother!

Go onto www.tractorhouse.com and type in Kubota L4701DT in the search bar. It will pull up multiple listings of that model for sale. Use it to help establish a price for your tractor. Remember even though they are asking a price, doesn’t mean that the tractor will sell for that price.

Go onto facebook marketplace. There are a lot of 3pt hitch snowblowers for sale. The biggest thing to watch out for is to not get one too big for your tractor. A B2320 isn’t very big and doesn’t have a lot of PTO HP. A 60” snowblower would be as large as I would go. There is a 60” 3 pt...

Sounds like a good deal for you. Enjoy your new truck.

I have a 2019 Ram 2500 with the 6.4L. We tow a 32’ fifth wheel camper and a 20’ equipment trailer. We love it. I installed an air bag kit from Timber Grove Enterprises, because it replaces the bumper stops and widens out of suspension stance.

Obviously you have zero experience starting a diesel engine in cold weather. You claim to be a technician, but sounds like you have never left a heated building to out and start a diesel that won’t start because it is too cold. At -40, a diesel MAY start without heating, but it is going to be...
