The first thing I would do is make sure your tractor is going to have a enough GPM oil flow to run one. I have a friend that has had both the chainsaw type and the circular type of the limb Saw brand. He started out with the chainsaw one running it on a compact JD tractor. It had just enough...

I have a buddy that went from diesel pickups to Dodge 2500 and 3500 with the 6.4 gas engines, ten in total. They have had good luck with them. Most are hooked to gooseneck trailers all the time livestock or flat bed. They ranch and have a ag business also, seed, chemicals and ranch supplies. Him...

In my area that's probably a six thousand dollar tractor the way it sets. In my area Market Place is the best place to sell most things. Things on consignment auctions around here normally don't do well. Normally the junk and unsellable end up there. If it were me I would just keep it. You might...

Went to the city this AM for parts and supplies. One end of town diesel was $4.09 and the other end of town it was $4.69. I think the high around here was $5.30.

Geohorn If it was me I would forget the tube. I am sure it started off tubeless. I would just plug the holes you find and put some of your favorite tire sealant in it and call it a day. If it wasn't for tire sealant in my skid loader my MX6000 and my bush hogging tractor and I almost forgot the...

I have burned wood on and off mostly on for forty plus years. For 15 years it was our only heat source with a Garn wood boiler. Ran it year around as I heat my domestic water with it. Fifteen cord of hedge wood a year to heat house and shop. Three years ago it was leaking again and needed a...

Sorry I am late to the party. Its the time of the year got to get that spraying done. For what your wanting to do a rubber tired skid loader with AC and heat and a two speed is what you need. I have many tractors and loaders and they set for the winter. My 100 HP skid steer is my go to machine...

I don't think I would care for that style load binder. For years I ran over center style that's what everyone ran over the road. Been about 15 years ago a friend of mine ran flat bed over the road and pulled into a new customer to unload and they made him leave they wouldn't let anyone on the...

Years ago my FIL bought a new Rhino brand bush hog style mower with the belting front and back to save some money. His old one had nothing front and back and he knock out a couple rear windows on tractors. He cut road ditches for a day and half the belting was ripped. I ordered chains front and...

The first couple years I had the MX6000 I ran a Rhino TW84 mower on it. Book says it weights around 1250 it did have chains front and back. Its a heavy mower. The MX three point handled it but I did bend the one adjuster on the right side and had to replace it don't know how it happen. I was...

MY suggestion would be to make a few rounds at the headlands before you start mowing the field. Even with my bat wing mower I make a few rounds on the head lands before mowing a field to be able to raise the bat wing a little when I turn and keep the mowing even that way. If you mow the...

Little late to the party. Since you are ordering the tractor I would get three remotes on the tractor. I bought my MX6000 out of the crate and didn't add remotes from the dealer as I knew I wouldn't ever use them. I have a shed full of tractors with remotes. I don't use a quick hitch or top and...

When it comes to mower decks and combines I have found over the years aftermarket belts just don't last. I only run OEM belts on them with little issues.

Years ago there was a dealer some what close in my area. There were several around. Friend of mine bought one new because they were cheaper. The Kubota engine was no issues but the rest of the machine was a lot to be desired. They were a no frills machine. He had it probably five years until he...

I will throw out my two cents. When I walk into the big Ag spray parts supply store they have Jomar thread seal and Rector Seal 21 Black laying on the counter for sale. Years ago the counter man I still trust today said Rector seal all the way. That's all I have used for years on sprayers...
