Absolutely! I'm kind of surprised your F-450 hasn't had a GLP-1 shot yet 😉

My "no going back " comment was based on my experiences in the automotive world. Modern ECUs timestamp and track everything. Just because you re-flashed it back to stock and reinstalled the DPF does not make it untraceable. Most will store a log of the ECU flashes, the number of regens, etc...

You would be doing what those in the diesel pick-up world call "weight loss." You'd tune it and remove the DPF, unlocking greater HP and Torque for both the tractor and PTO; however, it does not do anything for loader capacity or lifting force, just FYI. Once it's done, there's no going back...

I think you're on the right track, size and price-wise. Are you looking to bundle everything at once so you can finance the whole deal, or are you paying cash, or does it matter? I ask because I think you can do better on the grapple and likely the rotary cutter, shopping around a bit, even...

I'm not complaining about the ~4" of rain we've gotten in the past 4 or 5 days (we are in drought conditions), but my yard is growing like crazy, and wet, and I leave for the beach at o-dark thirty Friday morning, with more storms expected this afternoon.

Yup, it is a fantastic product. I have one that I use a few times a year on my sets of blades. Quick and easy to use. I recommend a flap disc for your grinder when sharpening.

I'll follow along if you do! I have a PTO horse I got from my dad a few years back. It's been to a handful of small engine shops and good ol' boys who swear it works great. But you try and till anything and it just bogs and dies, he got frustrated and just bought a new Honda rear tine. I'm...

We had a bunch of overgrown landscaping beds cleared up last week. I could have done it...But I'd rather not get covered in poison ivy, so we paid. After that, there was plenty of other landscaping to be done, trimmed a few trees and chipped the limbs yesterday, moved a pallet of mulch, and...

Damn man, that's a tough one to read. I commend you for sharing your all's story both the good and heartbreaking. Sending prayers your way.

What are your thoughts on that little ex? They pop up at the auctions all the time. My brother and I have considered going in on one. Understandably, it's not a full-fledged, diesel-powered ex, but for the limited use it would get, I have to imagine it would be just as capable, if not more so...

I have a Horse in my barn I need to pull out. The old cast-iron engine is tired and has no power for tilling. I have a predator engine to re-power it with quickly so I can get it back in work duty.

I have a Stihl brush cutter with the dual handles and shoulder strap, which works fantastically for the areas like you mentioned. The forge batteries are really nice, we use them at work. I'm going to get a few for the house, the Milwaukee is much lighter & quieter to be running around all...

Yea, I wonder if I still have the box them, hmm.

If it's worth doing, it's worth doing right! Always love your fab stuff. That painless block, is it just one relay that controls the power feed to the fuses? Obviously, you already have the Painless stuff, but have you ever looked at the Leash Electronics stuff? I use their OG4 Relay module...

I have like 1200+ feet of fence line I'll weed eat twice a month and while I prefer to use the Stihl, the Milwaukee keeps up really well. I also have the paddle wheel for putting gravel back as well as the pole saw and extension. Great little tool, most of its use is just around the house when...
