    How often do you work with a departments Sales person?

    I'd follow what GeoHorn said in post #4 to a "T". If a salesman does not want to negotiate on the deal, that's his choice, but when he verbalizes, "don't nickle and dime me..." that is absolutely not necessary. He'd displayed better salesmanship if he would have just said 'No". No smart...

    Pack rats built a nest, now my parking brake light is stuck on

    I have my D2 parked under a leanto on the side of the barn. It's plenty deep and offers good protection. Some birds were coming in there and causing a mess. I took a couple of alum soda cans, punched a hole through each one, inserted a wire, then attached baling twine to hang from the 2x above...

    Pack rats built a nest, now my parking brake light is stuck on

    I have use an old sock filled with moth balls, tie off the end and put 3 or 4 on the tractor in various spots. On my Duetz there is a 2" space above the fuel tank and the dash. I attach a piece of baleing wire to the sock so I have a removal method when I reload with moth balls.

    COVID-19 Stuff

    When I googled "qualities of sheep", this is what they reported. " Sheep is a meek animal. They are usually very quiet and gentle, holding themselves aloof from the world. In a herd, all the sheep tend to listen to their leaders and show esteem to them. Because of the obedient character, sheep...

    Off Road Diesel

    Well, if it's old diesel with sulfur as it use to be, just burn it and be happy. I've started old equipment that sat for 15 years. Fuel smelled like varnish. Pulled that Cat about 50 ft. with a tractor and she fired right off. Never even changed the filters!

    COVID-19 Stuff

    With governors and mayors requiring everyone wear a mask, if everyone went to wearing a Trump 2020 mask, how long would it be before they advised against wearing mask...

    Installing a automatic gate opener

    Looks good Russell. We fill hog panels with rocks and use them as corner post!

    COVID-19 Stuff

    Reading the article, it makes one wonder how CNN stays in business. If they can't tell the facts as they are, and corrected by the local news, it's a shame. Around here it's very similar with the wearing of the mask request. Some do, some don't. Went to Menards last week and they had...

    G4200 - No Drain From Block

    Kajun, you're welcome. "Learn from the mistakes of others---you can never live long enough to make them all yourself." It's called experience. You know what experience is? Something that is happening to you that you wish to God was happening to someone else!!

    Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an...

    BX - Curl Cylinder Rebuild?

    The trick part of the question is, what is the elevation of the ground in front of the tractor? Visualize this, if you pull your tractor up to a dirt pile and set the bucket down, how much shine will you see on the cylinder then? Answer is, how high is the dirt pile!

    What would you do? Fix, sell or both?

    Some auto dealerships have weekly meetings coaching their techs on how to find additional work for the shop. This coaching is what leads to testing the limits of what's safe or what needs replaced. I made an appointment to get the oil changed in my wife's car. I told her if they suggested...

    Canopy - anyone made one?

    If you look at the first picture I posted with the piece laying in the back of the Ranger, it's identical. They are a standard golf cart top.

    Cab glass replacement

    You might be able to order with your local dealer. Check to see if he gets it with his regular order if freight is added, or included with his order. Maybe you can get it from him and have the dealer forward it to you at less cost.

    G4200 - No Drain From Block

    Why not save the grief of damaging the drain valve or the lower radiator tank, and just remove the lower radiator hose to flush?

    I think it is just another purpose/reason to control what people do. The virus tracking makes it sound noble, and will get folks to jump on board. After a few years of this kind of control over the population there will be no need for judges in court. All activities and actions will be...

    When the cursor is pointed over the poster's moniker the location is usually posted there.

    What would you do? Fix, sell or both?

    Can you find an independent mechanic that can give you another estimate of cost to repair? How did you come to the conclusion of the modulator valve needing replaced? Some mechanics are less then honest, and then when a woman needs help they presume they don't know much about mechanical...

    Canopy - anyone made one?

    KVC, at that shipping price you could just use a dime store umbrella, and when it blows away or breaks get another one. :) I have another canopy I made for my L4240. I leave the ROPS folded down because I'm on flat ground and in trees. This canopy is made from scrap pieces of a large...

    Canopy - anyone made one?

    If you have a supplier of golf carts nearby, they have tops they replace with custom parts. I got this top for $25. The mount is whatever you have available and your fab skills.
