Was using my 2022 Backhoe last week and noticed excessive movement in the bucket cylinder pin connection to the link that connects to the bucket. On disassembly I found that they forgot to install bushings when manufactured. Wish I had noticed this earlier but fortunately I have not used it...

"My Cluttered Garage" on YouTube did a comparison video recently of the two Woodland Mills wood chippers. It appears that they have also improved the indeed rollers.

Just wondering how you determined that you need to replace the expansion valve. Have you had poor cooling since purchasing the tractor new? Mine is a 2022 model with about 450 hours and the A/C works fine.

My 5 foot x 12 foot tandem axle trailer was custom built with brakes on both axles. I easily tow my LX2610 on it.

I would not want to raise the 3ph with present plumbing as the suction into the pto pump is in the way.

Not sure if Harbor Freight makes hoses but Princess Auto up here does. Decent price but when I built my log splitter many moons ago I opted for good quality hoses at a hydraulic supply house since I am standing beside them while operating the splitter. Still like new but other cheaper hoses...

I also make a habit of running the loader controls through all functions to release any residual pressure after I shut the engine off.

It is amazing what parts are used elsewhere. The door handles on my 1971 Ford were also used on later Dodge trucks. The rear window wiper on my Jeep Grand Cherokee is identical to the one on my Toyota Rav4

I usually have a spare on hand but with the speed of delivery these days probably not necessary. Some belts will dry out over time which will shorten its life. I frequently store them in a sealer bag. I recently had the original belt come off my zero turn and decided to put on my spare. It...

Congrats as well on the new tractor. I have the R14 tires which do cut into your lawn especially if it is a bit wet. Having said this they are better than turfs as far as traction on snow. I mostly went away from the turf tires (had them on my last tractor) as they are much more susceptible to...

Glad I was part of helping someone else's back.

Yes, it is a solid shaft inside a tube. Common drive shaft back in the day . I think these components are still available.

Just for comparison this is how I attached a blower to the B7200 that I previously had. I set up a similar drive train under the axle but mounted to the support frame that attached to the rear mower supports. Not sure what type of framework you are intending for the front mower. Likely just...

My vertical splitter has a 4" cylinder and is powered by a 11 .gpm pto pump. Very adequate speed.
