Yep, she just needed some TLC mechanically in great shape, well except for no reverse. But that was an easy fix just cost a little more than I expected. This little tractor is definitely a workhorse though, just wish I knew the accurate hours on it, the meter is stuck on 1719.9 Need to shoot...

Moved 10 bucket loads of "driveway dirt" DG (decomposed granite) from the road up to the front steps. Been wanting to do this for a while. After years of snow plowing you tend to loose a lot of height, but with a wheel-barrow and a 900' driveway, up hill both ways, it never got...

Ahh Mowing.... Mowing is a good way to clear your mind of crap going on in your life, by your self, just the rattle tat tat of the engine, the smell of fresh cut grass, the ping ping of the occasional rock. Whether its a job, medical, money, relationship, or heaven forbid an IRS problem...

When I was restoring my L 1500 I did get a lot of transmission parts / gears from these guys in Cyprus https://www.stavros-savva-co-ltd.com.cy Even with shipping, with the Euro being down a bit they were the cheapest I found so you might check them out along with whatever other leads you get...

I have my loader off, disassembled, getting painted, replacing the controls, Etc. I have seen on other forums two schools of thought one that these are self bleeding, another that you need to bleed them when you have this much air in your system. Any thoughts, experience on this subject?

Got my new controller today for the FEL (Prince-MB 8 gpm with / Float) Of course only the inlet and outlets are the same threads, need adapters for the cylinders, :mad: Oh well, the frame needs painting anyhow. :D

Its no big deal, fix stuff up and then take care of it. its not perfect by any stretch of the imagination, but I like my stuff to be in good shape.

Not sure if this will take off, but I have four different implements that will need some serious attention. So I am going to start this thread, if only as my soapbox:) I am close to finishing my L1500DT rebuild, and turning my attention to, first my front end loader (FEL). Soon to follow...
