I made this set up for my dump trailer…works great.

Do it OP! The best thing I have on the tractor as I am in a rock infested part of the world. Added a valve to the plumbing and has worked great for 15 plus years. My lines are carefully routed/hung to avoid pinching and getting caught. Looks lame but works for me.

Get a trash bag and put the gun/tube in it and bring it in the house the night before…problem solved.

‘You wanna do something to your rig that will REALY help is add a hydraulic thumb. That thing is the most used and best implement for my situation…and likely yours too. Makes the trench work and stacking walls way easier.

Welp, I have similar material and interlocked rocks from volcanic activity…with about the same set up as you OP. I put in about 3000’ of trench by just going slow and working my rig hard. The good news is that I have several large rock retaining walls!

I am a mod on another site…we are getting hit lately as well. They are disguising themselves as legit business and show some knowledge of the forum subject. But they are all from Middle East countries and have been spoofing legit business sites too…

I do…. 😜

Around here calling someone a knob is a dickhead…as in…polishing the knob.

ummmm…you’re not a knob….but a noob….just sayin’😎 if you were a knob, that would make you an ahole…which still may apply in certain cases.😜 See, an old timer helping out a noob with tractor stuff.

All I know is that when I first got a tractor the people on this site treated my like a long time member. Answered my stupid questions and helped with advice. Wouldn’t have been nearly as SAFE, handy nor prepared without the help. Now, it is my turn to help those I can…

I used to do burn piles but since the entire state has burnt over the last few years they have cut back on that. Now you are severely limited in the size and you must stay there or you will be fined heavily. Got tired of that and got a dump trailer…they have a dump site that is very cheap...

No…but the golf course guys do have various orange thingies….and some green that are running around. At my in laws place in Burmuda Dunes…last time as they are selling it. All the snowbirds are showing up…plates from many northern states in Driveways.

Jeez guys…70 and sunny…played golf too.😎

Replace and put an abrasion resistant sleeve on it

Out here it is over 800 bucks for moving 3 electrical outlets. I know the city manager and she looked into it. Over 200 of it was for city hall debt, about 100 was for retirement funds and then literally the rest was everything but the actual inspection costs…that was only about 120 bucks…
