Yea, most on the FEL are original. I’m amazed they have lasted this long. The rubber outer coating has been cracked for years. If water gets in it rusts the braid, then after a while you get what I had today. I threw a old longer one I had on to finish what I was doing. But full replacement on...

This one let off under some pressure. Sounded like a firecracker, kinda caught me off guard!

I have to do the same..

I never got around to messing with it this weekend, daughter brought home stomach flu from school early in the week, it finally made its way to me. 😩 havent been on the toilet this much since my last colonoscopy🤷🏻‍♂️

Here’s the part breakdown on messics

UPS dropped off something today 😎

I have a minor leak at a fitting on one of the backhoe cylinders. I haven’t had one of these apart before though I did look at the parts breakdown and it appears there is a oring for the Allen head bolt but nothing for where it’s leaking. It looks a little cockeyed like it may of bumped in...

Bad valve seals?

Are you willing and able to do the work yourself? Old tractors are great if that’s the case. Time dries out seals and hoses, along with the very oil they’re holding back. If you have to pay someone every time you encounter a failure a newer tractor may be for you. If you can do the labor, seals...

R4 are industrial tread, R4:

I have a reminder on the toe of my current work shoes of chainsaw safety, if I recall I was limbing a downed tree, was towards the end and was getting weak in my arms, the saw cut through a limb quicker than expected and just nicked my shoe. That woulda been my big toe if it went any further. I...

I need to replenish what I burned this winter, I’ll send you a pm.
