    1977, B7100DT with 219 FEL

    If your radiator isn't leaking and your tractor isn't overheating, I don't believe a new radiator will benifit you at all. Don't get us wrong, if the radiator is clean inside and out it will work just fine. There are folks here out in the desert working these old tractors without any...

    1977, B7100DT with 219 FEL

    The B7100 is tough little tractor, I like to describe them as a big lawn tractor on steroids. When researching them before I bought one I recall reading somewhere that the steering is the weakest link on the tractor. I'm guessing this is seen far more with the tractors equipped with FEL's due...

    BX25D Settling Issues?

    Don't they make some kind of locking mechanism that straps around the hydraulic cylinder shaft? Even with something like that it seems like it's a good way to lose some fingers while removing! My father's 2910 is stuffed into a garage with too much stuff. We have to park the FEL over the...

    Rust cancer treatments ???

    I hope it works out for you Daren, My fenders need the same attention. If the paint comes off too I'm sold. I don't remember where I saw the restoration project, but they had the metal parts that saw wear painted with LineX at a color to match the original. I would like to do the same when...

    Ethanol gas

    Same here I don't use it. I have better luck with keeping a low fuel level and starting/running everything for 10 mins once a month. I swear that stuff destroys the gas. Used it once in a snow blower and had a hell of a time getting it going again.

    Insurance to use my tractor to make money. Question?

    LD, If you think that you won't do $700 in a year doing small jobs, I believe you will realize it's not worth the effort doing. All those jobs will put wear and tear on your equipment which will cost you more in the long run. Just doing service from the added hrs will cost you a significant...

    A small die grinder like a dremel would help getting that wire out. Just cut a little at a time.

    Borrowing a subsoiler (single tine ripper) with pipe laying attachment

    If you bought one and used it for what you need to do, you can always throw it in craigslist and probably get close to what you paid for it.

    Meanwhile in Boston

    Daren, I agree with you. Sadly this is the justice system in our country. I miss the south and could definitally see that situation going in a different direction down there. I could guarantee that guy in the dreads would get quite the tune up job if she showed his face on the streets of...

    Car for my kid.

    RCW you should be fine with that car, my buddy sells a lot of used Buick cars and they rarely come back with major issues. Used is used, there is always the unknown. Just make sure all of the recalls have been performed especially that ignition problem.

    Dig a footer.

    How well would a tooth bar on the bucket work for something like this? Never used one but I am curious how well one would work for a job like this.

    Tier 4 Rant - Not Kubota

    Sounds like you got out of that one cheap. Buddy of mine used to have a ford 6 liter and every time it went to the shop it was at least $1500. Got another friend with a dura max and he says the same thing, every time the engine light comes on its at least $1000. The ford was in the shop at...

    Let it snow!

    If you were in VT this year you wouldn't have to worry about it! I think you guys down there got more in 1 storm than we got all year :D. I think we are under 10" for the whole year so far. Farther up north in VT I believe they have gotten more snow when we were getting rain. It's tough...

    2-3 ft of snow to much for blade

    Personally never operated a tractor with R1's in the snow but I would guess they are better than R4's. I used to snowmobile though a farm that would spread cow manure over the snow and their tractors would go though 4' of powder without a problem with R1's. I personally think R4's suck in the...

    2-3 ft of snow to much for blade

    You folks having trouble... Are the tires loaded? Chained? Extra weight on the back? I use my blade a lot (well twice this year, but pushed a lot of snow last year :p) along with the snow blower and I'm not chained running turf tires. For the most part I've pushed a good 2' with no problems...
