    Reverse Alarm installation (HST)

    All is cool on my end. If I want to fight I just wait til the mother in law comes over :mad: That sure is some tune though. That's a standard in the tractor, Wing and truck. There's a few more tunes that I love but can't play very often because I tend to have a heavier foot when they come on so...

    Manual steering box repair issues........

    Man I wish you were here this evening. I could fix that where it wouldn't break again. That was designed to fail. I'd weld it if I were you. Nothing to loose. I know it's disappointing to see that happen but I feel it's very repairable. Just my 2 cents worth.

    1980's B7100 HST-D project

    This is pretty cool. I get to sit back and watch someone else work. Oh well at least I now know I'm not the only crazy one around putting all the hours into a project. I like that new color. Way ahead of the blue for sure. You take good photo's as well there my friend. As they say here in...

    Reverse Alarm installation (HST)

    AND WHY NOT ? There is a HUGH Canadian connection to in that song "Well I heard mister Young sing about her Well, I heard ole Neil put her down Well, I hope Neil Young will remember A Southern man don't need him around anyhow " Sorry to have stirred up old wounds. :D Gees. Now I'll be...

    1980's B7100 HST-D project

    Ya I know what you mean but there will come a time when you'll say "I'm starting to gain on it" and you'll get this big pile of energy and dig into it until it's completed. It's a very worth while project though. :cool:

    Reverse Alarm installation (HST)

    That's why I didn't need chains or ballast in the wheels :D I don't mind the alarm. It seems to work better than having lights. No one likes noise ;)

    Reverse Alarm installation (HST)

    I've been receiving some PM's from "other" web sites asking me how I installed the reverse alarm on my tractor so I figured I would post it here to show you how I did it. When it comes to the wiring that was easy and a wiring diagram do come with the switch it's self. Considering I use my...

    Powder coating

    I don't know what all the hype is about the stuff. I hate it. They say it's durable but everything I own that has it starts to chip and peel after awhile and then try to sandblast it off. Good luck with that! :mad: Anyway the small brackets on the front fenders that were powder coated started...

    Pick up plow adapted to Tractors FEL Mod #2

    I bet if I had you here I could show you the basic's of welding in an hour. I got a buddy that's so dumb (I tell him that) If I took his brain and put it in a bird, the poor bird would fly backwards and I showed him the basic's of welding and he can do it now. You'll never hear me put down...

    trasmission shaft pilot bearing - to lube or not to lube?

    Bingo. You are absolutely right. I buy that stuff by the foot and it's not cheap but it's exactly as you said. I do allot of machining for an egg grading station and in places where they can't easily access bushings to service them I use that stuff. Works very well. When you see it you'll...
