    Garage or Shop Lighting

    Are those single, double or four bulb lights? I have a 30 X 40 with 14' ceilings and it's dark with LED bulbs. I have been looking at T5 and T8 and researching the benefits. T5s appear to be twice the cost and use more power. I figure I could just buy more T8s?

    Dune buggy rebuild

    What make of 650 dual sport, KLR? The tractor of motorcycles? I use chain wax and adjust my chain regularly. I have 15,000 miles on my KLR now and the sprockets are pointy and I am assuming the chain might be worn? $60.00 I am replacing the chain because who knows where we will end up?

    I hear ya brother, then she is really mad when you clean them up and put them back in the exact spot? When we built those garden boxes I did all the cutting and I taught her to use a Kregs pocket hole drill, bar clamps and Dewalt cordless drills. She was impressed that I would take the time to...

    Loader leaking down : Normal or Abnormal ?

    It is serving no purpose driving your bucket into the base of a pile. It will wear out your tires spinning and tax your lifting cylinders. As you go into the pile you should be lifting and tilting your bucket back as it fills. Your can stall out the biggest Cat 998 loader ramming into the pile...

    Is it illegal in every country Wolfman or just the USA? There is a sticker on my grey that references the importer of the tractor. When I was looking for a starter I called them and they were really helpful. Their price was half the Dealers price but still more expensive than a rebuild which...
