I like it, looks like a well thought out and sturdy solution. Bill

That is what I read the other day. It opened my eyes a little on the fact there is different types of crude and politicians are always shooting off about things they don't understand. Similar to thinking we can switch to EV's including tractors just by "Make it so" laws.

Was this whole thread just a test by the OP? I was bored last night and was at tractorbynet and see the exact same thread and questions there. Never returned to either site to tell how he made out. just wondering, Bill...

I have screwed 2 rat traps to a board and put a milk crate over it for the garden ones, sometimes I get a field mouse or vole. I have a kestrel box on the garage and if she is feeding young I recycle mice and munks by putting them on some firewood. often she will spot them. I am constantly...

So how did you make out with this? Were you able to siphon it back out without making a mess? Bill

I guess mine doesn't have joints like that. Looks like a good fix.

I was backing up a slope last year with the backhoe on and full loader digging my pond. I found the best thing was using the dif lock as soon as I started back. It really made the difference and felt more secure balance wise. Bill

I still have it as it is my snow plowing tractor and a lot of other things when the backhoe is on. I picked the L2501 because of it being about the same size and I wanted a loader and backhoe. Bill

That is such a great find! I had an issue with my 8N that has the Sherman auxiliary over/under transmission in front of the original. Every once in a while it would lock up when I was mowing and changed direction on a slope. I would get it unlocked by rolling to a flat spot and roll it by...

Well to start with I picked that tang style cylinder because of it's dimensions. It is 19" closed and 29" extended with 1" pin holes. The hydraulic ports are on the side so I positioned it with them on the left for me. The rod end is 1-1/2 wide and that fit where my manual thumb linkage was. I...

I made my own system using this cylinder, https://www.ebay.com/itm/232166517902 because of length etc. But I see it is back ordered now seeing where they come from it is no surprise. I teed my summit 3rd funtion grapple outputs to the back and teed switch to make it work with a switch from...

A lot of styles here if you measure your size. https://www.summitracing.com/search/part-type/tie-rod-end-dust-boots

Or at least a fill height plug you could loosen or take out like on the front axle? Worked with a lot of german equipment that had sight glasses in the gear boxes and they had a star shaped metal piece in the sight area. You could tell if it was dry or submerged just by looking at it.

By your description of adding 1/2 gal at a time I would assume it is over full and needs to have some drained before use. That is why I suggested trying to siphon some out of the fill. You know what you added so I would shoot for removing that much to start. is it sitting level now?

I made a dip stick recently for when mine is at the right level. This is for a L2501DT gear drive so I don't know if you have a HST if it is different. From the top of that ledge inside the fill port area to level is 9-3/8 inches. I made a dipstick to check mine from a file type handle and a...

Just a thought seeing your pictures. That linkage looks painted but dirty like the rest of the valve. Is there any wear on that to indicate it ever had any linkage attached. If not it might not be used in this application? Bill

Love GSP's I have had a few, just a couple mixed breed rescues now. Always wanted to have a drahthaar with their bushy face hair! Bill

You guys are talking way over my head. But last week I drained and blew out all the lines on my Ford 8N and its front mount pump hydraulic system filled with tractor supply fluid when I put it together about 5 years ago. Then I filled it with the kubota super udt2 so the implements I share...

Pulling from anywhere higher than the drawbar can go from countering the rear wheel rotation and keeping the front end down to pulling the front end up if the 3pt is near axle height or higher. Moving an empty trailer is one thing. Pulling a loaded one with a 3pt attachment can take you by...

I feel your rodent pain. Don't think the cat or crossbow will work for me. I have entered field mice season here in my wife's 2009 forester. So I set traps and check every day. I have screened the heater fresh air intake and the 2 flap areas under the rear bumper wrap with brass screen. They...
