    Trailering Tractor with Forward Facing Exhaust. Issues?

    Load it backwards. JK There are arguments for covering or not but each engine is different. If this a concern to you why not purchase a flapper valve to cover the opening? If the valve is in place you do not need to worry about it blowing off or forgetting to put it on...

    Time to shim?

    Take a look at the spec sheet that Bota puts out on your tractor. Your tractor with a QA bucket and 500mm in front is rated at 423 pounds. Your tractor with a pin on bucket can lift at 500mm to the front 509 pounds because it is about 1.8 inches nearer to the pivot point. That is an 86 pound...

    Cracked disk on an L4740

    I saw the utube, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uQbKCd3ezrA, and thought about the long thread where you were talking about welding on a tire rim. Some people were not sure that the tire would explode but here is another reference to the problem in layman's terms. Thank you for sharing your...

    Pulling a gooseneck trailer with a tractor

    I have done the hayride thing with a 27ft gooseneck and a TL80A New Holland. Flat land in the sub division here in FL with 50 plus people on board. I honestly could not tell the difference between empty and full. It was on paved flat roads and was a great time. Things to think about: 1 egress...

    New L3301 Odd Engine Behavior?

    I know that. But if I would have written "dry fuel" it some how does not convey the same message. That is why I put it in quotes.

    New L3301 Odd Engine Behavior?

    I think that I would add some "dry gas", water remover, to the fuel. Also you should keep your fuel tanks topped off to prevent condensation. Good luck now that it is running correctly.

    Tractor Winch

    I understand your concern about the electrical system on the small tractors. I have found it easier to use a 2nd battery, deep cycle, to supply the power for the winch rather then risk the damage to the tractor plus it allows me to move the winch form place to place.

    M135gx hydraulic issue

    I assume that you have cycled the lever several times. Have you checked the fluid level? siphon some hydro fluid and check the color. Is it milky or foamy? When was the fluid last changed? How old is the filter? Double check the connections to insure they are fully engaged. Is the grabber still...

    Tractor Winch

    You could purchase a 3 point hitch with the 2" receiver then add a mount that you can purchase for the winch that goes into the receiver. Perhaps a wireless remote operated winch and you would be all set for way less then $3000.00. Plus the winch could be used on your trailer or truck for other...

    AG Tires VS Industrial Tires for Driveway Grading/Box Scraping Compaction Advice?

    If compaction is important to business perhaps a roller would be a worth while investment. I have one made with an 18" pipe filled with concrete and a "v" shaped tongue. I use the winch on the trailer to load it and flip the tongue over and pull it off with the tractor as the roller can be...

    Some Scams Are Difficult to Detect....

    I got the call from the "IRS" and they said to call them back. So I did. I was on a road trip and I was board so I called them back. 40 or 50 times. Finally the man begged me to stop calling him. Never heard from the "IRS" again
