    Metal Utility Garage/Workshop

    I did 40' x 40' with 12' walls. The doors are 2 panels 11' x 9' and gives me 18' width when both are open. The rear of the building has the same sized doors. I also have 12'X 40' lean toos on each side of the building. What I would do differently? I should have spent more and hired a better...

    Best rear ballast solution for Grand L4240

    Spreading rear wheel as wide as possible made the biggest difference in stability. I would guess the wheel weights will help with stability, I have not tried to put them to the test. The weights do help with traction. On your tractor it maybe cheaper to change rear tire fluid to Rim Guard. If I...

    Best rear ballast solution for Grand L4240

    $1400 is ridiculous. I paid about $500 for four weights and two mounting kits. My stuff is not Kubota branded and I did the installation. Maybe check with other dealers if lower cost weights can be ordered.

    Best rear ballast solution for Grand L4240

    I did the following. Rear tires loaded and set to the widest spacing. 200lbs wheel weight on each rear rim. These two items added to side hill stability and do a great job on light loader work. For heavy loader/grapple work I add a large ballast box with roughly 1k of weight to the rear...

    Building a boat trailer ladder.

    My past life was maintaining ships/boats in a salt water eviroment. We used to remove external ladders, rails etc and have them sprayed with bedliner material. It does a great job of protecting the metal and has great traction.

    Anyone here own a boat, or know a lot about boats?

    My two cents FWIW. I owned a high end wakeboard boat with tower and it also had a tow post for tubes, kneeboards etc. The tower and post were reinforced with large aluminum backing plates to distribute the stress of towing through large sections of the Deck and Hull. I would also recommend the...

    Type of oil for Kubota ZD323

    I also own a ZD323 purchased in 2009. My opinion, the owners manual is outdated and does not reflect that the newer CK-4 standard oils are backward compatible with older non emissions compliant diesel engines. You should be fine.

    Anyone here own a boat, or know a lot about boats?

    Have you had a chance to look up lubricating/greasing the steering cable assembly? Old grease on a push/pull steering cable system can add to steering effort. Does your boat steer easy both directions when stopped or on the trailer?
