    Auxiliary Light Wiring

    First, always use fuses. second, always use relays. third, always use the appropriate gauge wire. optional- switches, split wire loom, indicator lights, cable ties, wire connectors, etc. If your headlight switch works, it can do all the work, if you want all lights on at once. There is not any...

    Help: How to price LA 402 loader & controls

    Yes, i didnt even touch on that. Thats the first thing folks around here ask, "got a loader?" They bring a premium and don't stay on the market long either. I suppose we're just trying to advise you to deeply and thoroughly consider all aspects of having this tractor combination. Really wish I...

    L 3200 or l3800?

    Good question, one I dont have an answer for. They weigh within 50 lbs of one another depending on how configured. engine HP net is about the same. PTO HP is higher as you noted. on paper it looks equal. But I havent put my rear on one yet. are factory implements avail for one and not the other...

    Trailer for M7040 4x4 w/ FEL and Cab

    Dont forget, a vehicle that can safely handle that type of gross weight. Braking being one of the chief concerns. also figure in the purchase of enough high tensile chains and binders for the tractor and any implements. straps wont do here.

    L3130 Fuel Pump shuts off

    It appears to me that the seat switch is a reoccurring problem/symptom in todays safety control systems. I realize they take alot of abuse and go through large number of cycles but they do seem to fault a lot.

    Steering Box Rebuild Problem

    Oh, replace everything like the pinion seal now. There is no sense doing it over for something as inexpensive as that.

    Steering Box Rebuild Problem

    When I used the slide hammer I posted earlier about it was almost anti-climatic. A couple good hits and it was out. Same for the one in the bottom of the case.

    Steering Box Rebuild Problem

    As i said before, mine was welded too. This is what i used. Time meant more than a few bucks did at the time i did my rebuild. plus it was still cheaper than buying a questionable "good" replacement. My Dad told me many times that the right tool for the job will pay for itself over again. I have...

    Kubota B1-15 moves dirt with selfmade front hydraulic

    Cabu, I really like the work you've done. I think i've even told you that before. If you lived next to me, one of two things would happen. I would swipe your front 3pt from your tractor to put on mine or, continue to beg you to build me one until you did! Just kidding, but I do like to quality...

    how do you split a tractor

    When I used to split an early farmall cub I would cut a wedge (large doorstop) and put it on both sides of the axle pivot and secure them to the axle tube with a worm clamp. when tapped in tight it wouldn't twist around. I haven't looked yet to see if some variation of this would work as I...

    Steering Box Rebuild Problem

    The difference on my B7100 box rebuild is that my "column" tube is welded to the lower casting making it accessible from the rear next to impossible. I found a inner seal puller that had a slide hammer design at harbor freight that made short work of it. 2 or 3 raps and it was out. it also...
