    How I roll

    Well not with that attitude. Clearly you just need more hp. Handling and turn speed don't matter when you can do 200+ on the straights. 😎

    All you smart AI guys, hams or anybody else

    Oh man the those Furby things are absolutely freaky. So quick story time since you brought it up. At 32 years young, I was a kid when they got popular. I didn't like them but having sisters of course they made it into the house. I remember they were so excited to get one. Well fast forward a...

    A 2601 Will Plow

    I know exactly what you mean. Imagine my surprise how much better my old Ford pulled a blade vs my LX. Even though the Ford is the same size, 2wd, and has less hp.

    ROPS adjustment

    To the topic of whether shortening effects protection, it does technically. The height of the ROPS isn't just a random number, and no it isn't that tall to accommodate Shaq borrowing your kubota. It's a calculated height designed to prevent a continuous roll should the tractor tip. Like if you...

    Drilling a LA525 loader frame

    Funny you should mention it, I have a 2n. On the to do list for it is to replace the fenders that are full of holes in the wrong places. Also the roll cage on my SxS which has been turned to swiss cheese for a makeshift roof. Self tapping screws are not the end all be all of everything! Not...

    Drilling a LA525 loader frame

    Coming from the classic car world, holes in random places where they were never supposed to be just triggers my ptsd. Im looking at YOU older members with your damn "Econometers" and other various gauges just drilled into the top of my expensive dash pads! 🤬

    Drilling a LA525 loader frame

    +1 for magnets A good set of magnets on a flat surface will hold just fine. Hell even cheap ones will hold of their strong enough. I've got some magnetic cub holders that double as a coat rack at work. What I would do is get 3 of these...

    How I roll

    Sounds like a sweet ride. Buddy of mine has a 71 RR butterscotch yellow 440 car. Not a 6 pack car but still a ton of fun to drive. Mines a 72, and the first muscle car I've ever driven. Always been a mopar guy and especially a B-body guy. My dream car would be a 70 charger, but those are out of...

    How I roll

    Oh my, is this the official mopar thread? Well since we lack pictures, I'll toss my old project car in the mix. Its down currently due to a frame issue but hoping to get back in it next year. And speaking of mopar projects, picked up a "barn find" project for my dad last week. His first car...

    [MOD] Snow Plow - JD to Kubota.

    Might want to have a plan b just incase anyway. I can tell you from experience there is a huge difference between pushing and blowing snow. Especially in heavy snow. I have an old craftsman tractor not much smaller than a bx and wheel weights, chains, and my big ass it still fights for traction...

    Pickups with sliding rear window and fiberglass cap

    Depends on the cap. My slider turns the cab into a wind tunnel with the cap off. It does the same with the cap on but that's because the cap also has a window up front and side windows. So when all 3 are open it works about the same mabey a tad less air flow due to the lack of rotating air...

    Took Possession of My New Tractor

    I tried a couple sets of leds in my lx. Not much point in it other than it gets rid of the ugly yellow headlights. The housings on equipment in general just aren't well made. They don't throw light like you would want reguardless because of height and lack of conventional "headlight" design. A...

    Back in the Day

    Only ever drove one manual steering car, but being in my 30s 99.9% of guys my age haven't. A friend and I built a car from spare parts to take to a drag event down south. The zip tie drags for any roadkill fans. A 1974 Plymouth Roadrunner. The car was juat a shell with no glass, suspension...

    Keys that don't suck? Keyring solutions!

    I tried searching but the word keys comes up so often I was pulling my hair out. So anywho, does anyone know of any aftermarket keys that don't suck? Probably my only complaint I have with my tractor is such a small but aggravating thing, the slot on the keys is too small for 90% of key rings...

    Napa(don't) know how.....

    Now I'm out of date by several years now, but outside of imports or "boutique" all batteries were made by one of two companies. East penn and johnson. They are unofficial partners and they pretty much determine who gets what in what state based on whether they are east or west of the...

    Fluorescent lights

    LED all the way. I hate florescent lighting. Its primary benefit was the amount of light vs energy usage and they all still sucked for brightness. I went with 4' leds. Really the only determining factor on type choice is ceiling heights. 4ft fixtures work just fine at typical garage height...
