    Using solar panel to charge 12 volt game feeder

    Extending rear wheels

    I dunno. Manual would tell you. I suspect if there is a provision to move them out that far then so be it.

    Extending rear wheels

    Whether its 1 inch or 3 it will make a difference. Fluid will make the biggest difference.

    L3800: can I move a 1200 pound generator?

    Perhaps a set of rear forks is the answer. Will the 3 point lift it?

    Internal lathe threading

    My one and only south bend is almost as rigid as a wet noodle,so any advantage for threading is a bonus. I had a collection of old taps given to me,so experimenting with them wont seem so wasteful.

    I am so jackedoff right now

    Oh what a world we live in. Insurance is like warranty,traing day one look for any excuse to refuse and with a little luck the consumer will accept it. Dont give up! You got some sensible advice,hope you can iron it out.

    B7100 locks up in 2WD

    Speedi-sleeves or redi-sleeves are great to repair these sort of problems. Finding the size you need is the challenge, sometimes installing can be difficult. They usually come with an installer,and a sealant is used to lubricate them for installing. I believe i used blue loctite last time...

    Something so simple

    Who would have thought something so simple would make life that much easier. This has been a problem as my grip is not as good as it used to be.

    L4060 HST filter is insanely tight

    Lugbolt, i use the air hammer method also.but i would never suggest it. The resulting possible damage and someone would be trying to hold me to blame. My new air hammer makes quick work of things that were somewhat difficult in the past. Second best money i ever spent. The locking pliers are...

    Loader Swap

    A little off the subject,i thought the L1500 and L1501 were similar. I would put a loader on my 2wd tractor if i could find one. It. would have to be a small bucket.

    L4060 HST filter is insanely tight

    I have chiseled oil filters off. Generally its due to not lubricating seal. With oil. Dont use grease. Oil only. If you have to chisel, use care not to nick sealing surface.

    F250 ac

    Exactly what my buddy just paid to have his redone. A gauge to see what pressure is the place to start. We have a mobile a/c service guy,did the repair in the driveway. Stubborn though, i offered the shop and hoist and he refused.

    F250 ac

    My new (to me) 93 chevy a/c wasnt working. So i grabbed a can of r-12 substitute and proceeded to juice it up. Not even 1/2 a can and it started cycling. Sorta. After a period of inactivity, the clutch wasnt engaging properly. Ran it for 1/2 hour and now it seems to work fine. Not bad for...
