    Am i missing something?

    To me it looks like they sent you the rake for offset model (does have a second set of alignment pin holes) and frame for the non offset rake.

    Hydraulic plumbing advice

    I use this Permatex product. If I'm in a bind, I'll use tape then make the proper repair ASAP. https://www.permatex.com/products/thread-compounds/thread-sealants/permatex-pneumatic-hydraulic-sealant-36-ml/ Another option is Hercules paste. I use this on LP gas lines and Compressed Air lines...

    Everything Attachments - Bankrupt?

    I wasn't going to respond to this whole CC interest thing, but what the heck, might has well stir the pot. The interest is calculated at 1/12 of the annual APR per month on the remaining balance (this also includes any late or yearly fees). So for simple math if the APR is 24% the monthly rate...

    Warm up time in Winter vs. Summer

    The answer is yes, you can move the tractor while it's warming up. Keep the rpms low and accelerate slowly. I keep mine in a garage, so I have to move it out to warm it up. CO2 is bad for the tractor and it's really bad for a human. The tractor should be at normal operating temperature before...

    New B2601 owner, wheel spacer question

    As Skeets stated, the only issue could be with a Mid Mount Mower (mmm). I would get a second opinion from another dealer.

    Sorry for the confusion. I wouldn't feel obligated if I didn't approve the fabrication.

    Tilt cylinder (of top and tilt) for L3560 HSTC LE

    It looks like landpride has one for the L series. See the link below. The spec's list all of the top and tilt options for a bunch of different models. https://www.landpride.com/products/10617/Top-&-Tilt-Kit I ordered a top link for my LX.

    Everything Attachments - Bankrupt?

    If they have the item and are ready to ship it, they should be paid in full. This is normal, as they have no way to collect payment after it leaves their business. The consumer has an option to get their money back if the item is not delivered. The worst-case delivery time in the lower 48 is 10...

    I finally figured out a use for independent brakes (and "cruise control")

    I thought the the cruise control was kind of joke on my LX2610. The first time I mowed the lawn I found out how handy it was. My lawn is rough to say the least and I couldn't keep the speed consistent with the pedal. My old tractor was a gear transmission so keeping a consistent speed was easy...

    Well the EA building is going through the legal system. That's the nature of custom builds, it's a high risk business and that is why things cost of much. As for me being a contractor, it's in response to your post about how contractor's do business building a new home or remodel. Which again...

    Everything Attachments - Bankrupt?

    Well, let's start with Amazon, they have the item in hand and ship it once you paid in full. That is no different than you going to a store a buying something. The rest of stuff you paid for in advanced, is a risk you are taking. If you're okay with taking the risk, so be it.

    As a business owner/contractor, your comparison is way off. Tractor attachments are not custom and can be sold to someone else after it has been built. Building a home or remodeling one is truly custom. Once the work is started it can't be taken back or sold to someone else. The next important...

    Also need to include the tax man (Fed and State) they get their money before anyone else does. They can also sieze assists, no else has that power.

    It seems to me that the leaders of EA are mixture of Bernie Madoff, P.T. Barnum, and Jim Jones. I don't own EA equipment and that is because I wouldn't pay up front for something that someone might have in the future. It's also the reason I won't buy anything from Homestead. I'm sure both did...

    I want to thank everyone for all of the great information. Now it's time to spend some money.
