Curious , if the outside walls of the bushing are straight sided why you did not just turn the bushing to outside dimensions, diameter and length, chuck up in 3 jaw chuck, then drill a hole slightly smaller than the small end of taper , then switch to boring bar and cut the inside to dimension...

I was starting to think the first shed I was going to find would be sticking into one of my tractor tires! Sorry you lost a tire.

I have owned my habitat land (57 acres) for 8 years now. I have not found a shed or matching pair , mostly due to the fact I am a full time user of a manual wheelchair and do not walk or spend time in the deer bedding thickets etc. That being said I went down to the land today to jump on...

Tractor, equipment and car dealerships are in a enviable position if they can pick and choose which customers they wish to do business with. I was in the retail/service business and was a warranty station for two major manufactures and was thankful for each and every customer that walked...

I keep my cell phone on a lanyard around my neck at all times when on the tractor. In case I do something dumb or something out of my control happens I want the very best chance of having access to my phone. Stays clean, usually between my base layer and what ever shirt etc.

ferguson-ploughs-development-types-1917·64-part-3 My best guess is that it is a Ferguson - Sherman . When you look at the upright cast pieces for the top link and other features in comparison to other plows of that type that use strap iron it leads me to believe Ferguson.

I have about 240 hours on my L2501 HST. I know exactly what you’re describing as far as HST whine quieting down with increased rpm’s in the 1900 + range. Vast majority of my light loader and grapple work is done in medium range , 1900 rpm. When I run my light duty LP 6 foot cutter I run also...

I am waiting for Paul to construct a whole tractor in his garage👍lol! Nice work on the hitch Paul!

Started the ice storm damage clean up today. 4 1/2 hours of solid grapple work is enough at one sitting for this old dog!

Other than not having the Goodyear branding, are these not the style, tread and size your looking for? The tread style looks to be just about identical to the pictures of the tire your looking for. GVM20 As a side note, to be clear, to the best of my knowledge this style tire was never...

Ok, I am not sure I know what that look is? Can you post a picture of the tire style you are looking for? Did Kubota ever offer the "non turf" tire as an option on the B7100? What rear tires are you running now?

Help me understand the reluctance to running the Kenda 513 turf tires when clearly finding a set of original good or new old stock Goodyear's is going to be, pretty much as Torch said, a unicorn. They are a true turf tire tread pattern much like the original Goodyear turf tire in the proper...

A family friend was up by my house boating on the chain o lakes a few years back. His boat was fiberglass and had about a 50 hp outboard so not that big. One of his bunks gave way, if I remember the wood rotted and one of the bolts holding it fell out. Fortunately the fiberglass molded hull...

I had a chance to set-up the quick hitch and get the new to me larger 5 foot box blade on. Works great. Ran out of time to set up my Landpride rotary cutter which is a first gen quick hitch compatible. A very gracious member here on OTT sent me the Landpride quick hitch floating top link...
