Highly recommend you check this before getting too far down the rabbit hole. Ive bent mine/set it out of adjustment 3 times since having the tractor just from leaning around while reversing and accidentally pushing on it. Every time my tractor wouldn't start this was the reason.

Haha that was a good read! I’m sure lots of us (or at least me, multiple times) have had issues connecting something on the tractor. Were you doing this last week during the heat in MI? If so that would have been rage inducing.

I can’t remember his name, but someone on here had an issue with his lift cylinder on his PTO from being stored in the up position. Maybe something similar happened here hopefully he sees and can chime in.

Yeah you are right there, it should sell close to the amount you bought it for regardless. In terms of the speed/convenience of sale I agree with ya.

Loader would be nice (even if you never used it) just for resale value IMO. A bit off topic, but I like the cinderblocks on your rear blade, im gonna have to try that next time I need to do some serious grading.

Ah okay. Good to know! I was very impressed with purple power for the price

Purple power works well, Zep works well, even dawn dish soap will work as a degreaser. I've heard simple green can react with some metals, but i'm not 100% sure. I've always used dawn but I just picked up purple power and it seems nice.

Yeah that’s a great idea! It looked like something I could build with the wood I have laying around. and I think you are right - I just want to make it easier so I have less of a chance of screwing it up. I just was messing with the oil filter with the loader on the ground. It’s not so bad as...

Okay, I will loosen oil filter and let a little out today.

Okay good to know thank you! I am probably 1/4" over the top hole @ 6qts

Im glad your liking it! Just had a question - I noticed your saying your oil amount was 1 Gallon + a quart. The manual (at least in my 22 l2501) calls for 6 quarts (1 gallon + 2 quarts). I used the 6 quarts during my oil change ysterday and it just just a tick above the full mark. I did some...

Awesome thank you! I’ve never seen that before. I’ll have to look into it and see if it’s something I could make w/o welding

Removed the loader and changed the oil. I don’t have a flat spot on my property so it was rough getting it back on. I forgot to put blocks of wood under the loader kickstands so that made it worse LOL. accidentally loosened one of the hydraulic soft lines and sprung a leak when trying to hook it...

Thanks for posting this! I didn’t realize that this is something that should be done.

Thanks all! Appreciate the discussion. Always glad to learn something new.
