    You need to watch those valvestems, especially the rubber ones that can dry rot, had some tires from Walmart that they did not replaced the valve stems and going down the road. The centrifugal force would bend it back to where it would leak out the air took a while to figure that one out and...

    Is this just the Drop Bar? Because my L47 needs the receiver also. OK I did a search and found it but no price available.

    Kubota L47 brakes

    Did you look under the left step to see if your three-point hitch kit was bolted under there, that’s where mine was for years before I bought mine.

    Tube cracked on LA240

    If you were handy with metal, and you had enough play to be able to slide a tight fitting thick wall interior pipe on that and then beef up the outside obviously better than what you bought it with that would also be a consideration, assuming nothing is fed through the inside of that tube.

    First aid books

    I was a paramedic for the LAFD for 38years, my first aid kit is a jug of water, roll of paper towels and I love the comment of duct tape. If your splint makes it hurt more take it off, you're defeating the purpose, sometimes it's just best to let the pt hold it themselves.

    Pretty much guaranteed our power never goes out

    Hope your overage payout is in writing, SCE gave me 5.5 cents per Kw for the first 2 years, which gave me about $1000 in my SCE bank, which means I should not have any bill for the next 10 years, but then 2 years ago they dropped it to 1.25 cents per Kw. Thankfully my system has paid for itself...

    Pretty much guaranteed our power never goes out

    Yes, I am on net metering, whatever you do do not lease a system that actually values your property, concerning a battery, crunch the numbers because they would never pay off for me since I don’t have a bill as it is, and it could only run the property for one day with minimal use, if you set it...

    Pretty much guaranteed our power never goes out

    I have a solar system also, but they’re designed to not run or run minimal when you don’t have power coming in so you would have to be off the grid to really make that work properly that way, but I stay hooked up on the grid because it gives all my extra a place to go, a reservoir, otherwise...

    Cheaper than Cheap Lightweight Box Blade

    Whenever I buy an implement, I look for the heaviest one I can find, = more metal, looks flimsy and they did not post how much it weighs.

    Looks like a clean tire puncture

    Wow, that would take all 50 tire plugs for now, then an interior patch or tube later, but that's going to leave a high possible contamination hole, I look forward to the other responses. Tire looks newer.
