    Grill Guard for L2501

    Its very possible an individual was doing this - Ive seen individuals on tractor forums take up similar en devours and sell to other members. In my search I never found anything I could just buy, because that was my initial preference. Its really a very simple modification. I was surprised how...

    Thank you BXpanded - Great Support!

    You don't see companies do that much these days, that's impressive. I've never used them, but I'm going to bookmark their page and try to buy something from them sometime. Maybe Ill get a tooth bar for my L2501 bucket.

    Adding outside temp display?

    I see Well, You can do it of course, its just how much work you want to put into it :). I think you know what it will involve. I will tell you this though, and if youre a weather nut like me you may have already thought of this - but one reason you likely dont see these on tractors is because...

    Adding outside temp display?

    Weather is one of my many hobbies. I run a professional weather station at my house and monitor everything and its all logged digitally for historical records. Having said that - Yes you could do this on a tractor very easily. The easiest way to do it of course would be to simply buy a good...

    Grill Guard for L2501

    I made a post similar to this a couple months ago because I wanted one as well. (You can see my thread here if youd like) I looked everywhere. You will NOT find one that you can just buy aftermarket. Your only option is to fabricate one yourself, or have someone else do it for you. I elected to...

    size disc R4 tires

    I had planned to actually get a land pride one this winter, but then someone I know offered this one to me for FREE. This disc is about $2,000 from what Ive seen online. He had never even used it, it just had sat out under a tree for a year. I jumped on it. He did finally let me give him a few...

    size disc R4 tires

    @SDT It is over 6 feet . The picture is perhaps a bit deceiving I think. Im attaching a picture of the spec sheet on it from the manual: DH 1176 (76 being the width in inches) @Waterboyo1: I don't think you would have any trouble with an 8' disc on an M5660. If you tried pulling it through pure...

    size disc R4 tires

    Im not sure if youre asking regarding your new M5660 or the L3301. Obviously the M5660 should have no trouble at all with a disc larger than 6'. If youre asking regarding the L3301 I can give you some good insight on this, because I was in the same boat recently. I have an L2501. Less HP than...

    So Greta isn't Greta

    I have read some about this issue personally, but not enough to speak strongly on the subject. I think however the reason you don't hear about it is because we are already in the vacuum of climate change and co2. The reality is that something like climate change will take many many years to try...

    So Greta isn't Greta

    I'm Likely to step on some toes but regarding Greta herself, as I havent really addressed her in all my replies - I almost think she is an example of child abuse. She was 15 when she became an activist, and at 16 delivered the emotional, fear fueld speech that we likely all saw. I see it as...

    So Greta isn't Greta

    Well we likely have differences in personality. I am an INTJ personality type, if youre familiar with MBTI. I question everything, and seek to arrive at my own conclusions after exhausting my own research and reading. I do not accept anything just because someone has a title, because titles mean...

    Garden prep ?

    on the subject of garden patches - im working hard to get one cleared at my place. My property is about 13 acres, but it was heavily wooded, so my problem is finding a big enough spot that has consistent daily sun! Im having to cut down so many trees, and push the woods back to try and find a...

    So Greta isn't Greta

    The problem quazz, and why I think so many people have become so fractured on climate is because it has become politicized. People like AOC have not helped the cause. You have all these politicians who make silly statements, and offer so many radical suggestions to "fix it". Most reasonable...

    Smart guys and gals

    I have a giant pine tree next to my house that just died this past year. I have to go rent a man lift to get it down. I also am a bit spooked with heights, and Ill need to get up 60-80 feet to top it. Not looking forward to it. Its all loblolly and longleaf pine here. They grow to massive...

    So Greta isn't Greta

    appreciate those kind remarks but I would make one lousy politician. We dont elect thinkers anymore in this country. They are too quite, they dont perform well in debates. We elect charisma today, which most would say I have very little of. I am of the unfortunate opinion that America's best...

    So Greta isn't Greta

    Thats actually where the name came from! Ive used some variant of "tornado" since I was 12 years old. Im nearing 40 now lol. I used to want to go out to oklahama and chase tornado's too.

    So Greta isn't Greta

    I'm an avid reader, and 100% of my reading is in history. I particularly love studying the American Revolution. I have however taken dives in other topics that have interested me. One of those most recent dives was into the life of Albert Einstein, and more broadly the evolution of quantum...

    Forward or Reverse tiller ? ***129300;

    typically, a tiller with reverse tine motion is more aggressive at breaking new ground. This is especially true with a walk behind tiller. I have a 17" walk behind husqvarna tiller with honda engine - it does forward or reverse. I have almost always used reverse. With forward, if the machine...

    Garden prep ?

    Wolfman makes a good suggestion that would also be the cheapest option if youre wanting to do it on the cheap - a Middle buster plow.You can get one that will do the job for about $200 at tractor supply or rural king, etc. I dont know what kind of soil youre working with but here where I live I...

    Easy question...fuel canisters?

    I use just 5 gallon metal cans for my gas and diesel. My L2501 has a 10 gallon tank, so when I get to 1/4 tank left, I fill up my 5 gallon gan and put it straight into the tank. Given Im only really using the tractor on weekends, and not every single weekend, It takes a couple weeks usually to...
