I've been using a horizontally mounted truck mirror on my tractors since the mid 80's. I can attest to the fact that they're the greatest thing since sliced toast. Especially when it comes to using a rear mounted snowblower!!

Thanks, rc51stierhoffs! It should work just as well for your BH92. It's certainly stout enough for the BH77. Agreed, they do take up valuable floor space while off the tractor! At least this way they can be rolled in a corner or tucked in anywhere until needed. It does take a little "tug"...

Thanks for the compliments. The design came from just wanting to keep things simple once the base with the wheels was put together. Bucket end: let's rest it on the boom framework and not on the bucket. Main body: At rest on the dolly.....let's make it to be able to roll right up to the...

I've had a Harbor Freight manual tire changer for years & years. It's well under $100 even with some attachments for other wheels....like motorcycle, spoons, etc. Mine is bolted to the shop floor and I couldn't count or remember all the different tires I've changed, repaired, patched tubes or...

I emptied my Kubota Payment Booklet today. I may just go purchase another 2A attachment to celebrate..........after I get done patterning a new shotgun.

Nice Mower!! The JD205 was the first brush hog I bought used to go behind my older JD750MFWD with only 17 pto HP. It worked just fine in grass and light brush. But worked much better behind the Kubota B2650 with live PTO!! Here's an interesting mod for you: I had wondered what that hole in...

That's looking mighty nice!!

Thanks for the nice compliments, gentlemen!! It does work quite well. It definitely is a little overkill on the materials......but the square tubing was leftovers from a previous project I did for someone else.......so this seemed like a good use for it. You can definitely push/pull on it...

That ladder is a neat idea. My suggestion comes from some experience....and age....and weight.... and is: When boating....alot of the time you might be barefooted and using that ladder. Or someone else might be barefooted and using the ladder. Supporting your weight while barefoot on the...

Stump grinder vs. stump bucket: Alot depends on both the size of the tree and the condition/type of ground that the trees are in. I have a lot of 100+ yr old cottonwood, ash, etc. on this farmstead. The old trees are now starting to die off. Here's a cottonwood that was failing, so I...

Fantastic shop/garage/mancave!! And you'll be "one BUFF dude" when you finish cutting up all of that wood!! (y) Is "Superb" a better or more proper adjective than "fantastic"? Both apply!!

I posted my BH77 Backhoe Dolly for you. It's made from some steel square tubing so it's pretty rugged. It might be a little "overkill" but there's no need to worry about the dolly failing under the backhoe's weight.

Still to be finished and painted, here’s my backhoe dolly for the BH77 used behind my B2650. It’s been in the unfinished “prototype” version waiting for any changes for a number of years. No changes needed so now I just need to finish some welds and finally get it painted…. one day. But with...

16+ miles......that's impressive!

That'll scare the crap outa any stump!! Outstanding!! (y)(y)(y)

If you have a welder, a metal cutting jig saw, and a good paper pattern of the bolt holes..... you could cut out a round piece that would eliminate the cracked areas and replace and weld in one of similar thickness. Especially for $400. With an accurate pattern/dimensions.....a good machine...

Oh, Oh!! That doesn't bode well for our tree. I was going to post this last summer but forgot about it. Late one night while watching tv during a rainstorm, there was a bright flash and loud boom. I told the wife, "I bet that lightning strike wasn't too far away!!" Then forgot about it. A...

No offense, whatsoever, taken!! And no apologies needed as well. LOL! I'd be curious if there are now water muffs available for the large HP outboards of today. The normal ones are somewhat limited in how much water can be supplied into the the water intakes so I'm always careful to limit...

You're absolutely right to be concerned when you don't see any water coming out the "tell tail" port!! But it's excellent knowledge to know your specific motor's cooling path and pump condition as well. I had to read through all the comments from the beginning before I posted. Knowing you had...

Not sure if your post was/is directly addressed to me with my comment or more a general cautionary note......but I agree with you. And I have no experience with the newer outboards and especially the newer large HP outboards. And that was the reason for my post to mxmcii. I got the...
