    Lug Nuts Too Tight

    I love the idea but in this day and age in 6 months the people will not be working there. So they do not care how mad you get. They got your money once and they do not worry about getting your money the second time.

    B7500 tubes for front tires

    You might check on the cost of the tube plus the installation and it might be cheaper to replace the tire if the rim is in good shape.

    Lug Nuts Too Tight

    Maybe use a jack stand, just to make your leverage point more stable. And it would be adjustable in height in order to keep your extension closer to level.

    Rusted Wheel repair on ZL 1500-A

    Not to sound like a smart a** but can you use the other side as a model to show you where to put the hole? If not I would file the edge of the hole until you have some good meat to weld/braze the washer. Mount the tube and tire, while using a lot of baby powder, then place the washer over the...

    Quick Attach

    Rural King near me keeps the Cat 2 in stock at a good price but I do not remember what the price was marked at. I would agree with Roadworthy that the Pat's would do you more good. I ended up with some old equipment and the spread is not the same on the hay cutter and the rotary cutter so the...

    Never Hooked up an attachment...

    I am not sure but in the photo there is only one side of the top link extended. You should set the rake down and relieve the pressure on the top link. Remove one of the pins and make sure that the amount of threads is the same on both ends. Re-install the top link. I do not mean to disagree...

    Grapple hoses

    Why can't you just keep your fingers off the keyboard if you can't say something NICE, or PLEASANT? Remember the Golden Rule.

    Grapple hoses

    Take a look on the back of a semi truck and on some that have an air hose holder. It is spring mounted to the truck and then has some coil springs attached from the holder to the air lines to keep them from getting pinched as the truck turns...

    MX5100 rubber boot around gear shift popping off

    I was just reading another posting and they brought up the question of a vent for the transmission. If you have one it may be blocked causing the pressure build up in your transmission and forcing the boot off.

    Diesel fuel return volume

    I was always told that the fuel did two things, first to let the engine run with the correct fuel pressure and the second is to cool the pump.

    L2550 temp gauge always shows Hot

    I'm amazed at the info that you find on here. Teflon tape as an insulator. Who would ever thought of that. Thinking like that is why it is so entertaining to read this forum. I have no idea if it is right or wrong but it is away to redirect ones thinking.

    MX5100 rubber boot around gear shift popping off

    Are you leaving this tractor parked out side? Do you know how to check the level of your transmission fluid? How old is the machine? Since you stated that there was steam coming out of the shifter opening I think I would check for water in the transmission fluid. The water maybe turning to...

    Ballast for L200

    I am going to say something that is counter-intuitive. Use a higher gear. I grew up in south eastern Ohio. There are some pretty steep hills there. I have learned from watching my dad, who was a heavy equipment operator, not to control the decent of a machine by trying to hold it back with a low...

    B7100 axle extension?

    Are your beds fixed at the 800 mm? Or is this what your are accustom to? Here in the Florida strawberry fields the equipment dealers make extensions onto the wheel to get the correct spacing, however, I have only see this done on larger tractors. They are setting the wheels out maybe 10 inches...

    Need Help L3560 shutting down.

    I would not pay that thief a dime to move my tractor. For that kind of money use a Uhaul trailer if you have a truck to pull it. I am not sure how far your dealer is from you but a tow truck would be cheaper or at least worth calling. And I would drive the damn thing home myself before I would...

    Snow blower price range

    I was just watching a utube "John Deere Green Tractor Attachments! Pallet Forks, Brush Hogs, Tillers, Snowblowers, Land Levelers!" from a green dealer and he was showing a rear mounted FRONT facing snow blower which included a plastic scraper to clean up the tire tracks. I do not need to worry...

    Four-wheel drive; Not all tires turning

    What are you trying to do that this happens often? Perhaps with some details someone on here might be able to find a solution to help you out. Pictures might also help. There are limits to what a tractor can do but just as often there are alternatives that will help you get the job done.
