Honest politician is like a peaceful carnivore. Might start out that way but won’t be around long if stays that way.

That looked interesting until I saw 20gpm. Geez!

I don’t know you and you don’t know me, but the assumption is you and I and pile of others are just plain idiots. Because we are so incredibly stupid and the manufacturers are aware our IQs are about equal to the median annual temperature in Hawaii, it is therefor the manufacturer who is...

Thank you. I had almost forgotten that ever happened. Intentionally or unintentionally it seems we forget the parts of our history we would prefer to have never happened. The unvarnished perspective of those who lived through the times mostly dies with them and we are left with an, at least...

I have the WC-68 mated to a L4701 HST. Have about 40 to 50 hours on it because brush piles were getting out of hand. Only thing I have to compare it to is a 110hp pull behind I used when I worked for a tree service back in the day. The big pull behind would chip a 12” log (slowly) and had twin...

You’re pretty much, as a practical matter, selling your house before you’re done with it so if you want to pass it down to heirs it doesn’t really work. There are a lot of smaller but still concerning issues as pointed out by GeoHorn. Shockingly it isn’t as simple as it looks in those...

Pretty much, yes. SSQA is SSQA so if you have a SSQA quick attach and a SSQA implement you can attach it to your loader. The real issues (which you’ve probably already thought of) are making sure the implement is sized correctly for your machine (7500lb capacity forks on a 2500lb capacity...

I was feeling kind of ill about how my last couple of days went. After reading that, I feel better now. Thanks! 🙂

The rims on my L4701 are adjustable per the manual, dealer, and design. They are a two piece rim with brackets on the outer rim that are offset from the center line of the rim. The brackets can be set inside the center or outside the center which moves the wheel the width of the bracket plus the...

I just read this whole thread from beginning to now. Not sure if the OP was serious or if bored and felt like throwing a match on a pile of gas soaked rags and laughing at the explosion and ensuing inferno. Regardless... Some may know I’ve posted a couple of things about safety (which some have...

Congratulations! The third function and grapple; just hard to adequately state how incredibly useful the grapple is if you do any tree/brush/clearing work. It has saved me many, many hours of manual labor and allowed several projects that otherwise would have required renting a skidsteer...

1) Thank you for your service. I am not familiar with combat but am familiar with doing things that would be otherwise unthinkable but for the dire nature of the circumstance. 2) Thankfully, I’m not in combat or any other dire circumstance so I have time to research, plan, gather appropriate...

Kubota uses a split ring retainer on a similar pin that attaches the rocker arm link to the lift arm on the 3 point on mine. I would consider using that or something similar if you’re going to R/I it more than once in a blue moon.

Thanks for the responses and the concern (seriously). I guess I’m a worst case scenario person so with this fancy Tier 4 common rail HST blah, blah tractor concerned it might cause a fault in a computer somewhere if I loosened a wheel clamp and the headlights wouldn’t work any more. I figure...

Have pulled trailers and wagons off 3 pt quite a bit. There are some issues with that, as you probably know, which can be avoided by using the drawbar. Obviously you can pull with the 3 pt; if you can pull a plow you can pull a trailer. Problem pulling is when you have the hitch point above the...

You can purge some air that way, too but it won’t do anything for your loader. 😉

I’m not 100% guaranteeing your loader has it. With my LA765 you push the joystick right (away from you) to dump. If you push it far enough right it goes past a detent and goes into a free fall dump. Pretty much same as the float function on the loader arms. Don’t know that I’ve ever found a...

Rear wheels on my L4701 were left narrow due to a couple of clearance issues on our property. Dealer made it quite clear (and manual seems to agree) they are adjustable on the 4701 even with the R4’s. Those clearance issues have been addressed so I’m thinking about adjusting them out. Running...

Stanley Electric is a Japanese company that has been making lighting, including vehicle lighting, since the 1920’s or so. Unfortunately that pretty much exhausted my knowledge on the subject. It might not get you anywhere but you could try contacting Stanley...

Might still be cheap but the ratty is disappearing. Sweet!
