I'm not sure on the capacity differences but something else to consider is the visibility. The bucket will definitely get in the way. Depending on the fork frame, some have more or less windows cut for visibility and to take away some weight. If you have SSQA, to me it's a no brainer.

I've just set up the 4 Canadian regions. Maybe a few more can set up other countries as needed. As a side note to the moderators. I noticed I had to set them up as ' uncategorized '. Does anyone have the ability to create categories? It might help keep things a little more organized.

He may have got in there shortly after you used it last, attracted to the residual heat?? Another thought, it may be getting ready to shed it's skin. The stamped edges on the guard is probably just what it needs to help. I find snake skins all the time in our wood pile. I think the edges and...

Mmmm, cooked garder snake! Reminds me of an old troy built tiller I bought years ago. They were asking $275 and said it ran. Half hour later he couldn't get it to even fire, so I got it for $150. Took it home and found there was no spark. After checking a few other things in the system, I...

Just for kicks. Try walking in to a dealer and show the cap to the greasiest mechanic in the service department! :D

Could the 5 be set up as countries/continents, then set up sub-groups for small regions as discussed above? Not sure what's possible in the bits and bites world.

I used to change to 15w30 in the winter in one of my 5.9 Cummins. It was just easier starting when it dropped to -20 to -25 celcius. It tried synthetic once as well, hard to justify $120 for an oil change. Now that I'm out east, -10 to -15 is the worst we see. I stick to 15w40 I. The truck and...

Just to throw another option out there. https://www.amazon.ca/Cell-Phone-Armband-Excercise-Cellphone/dp/B00U9N60PC/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1499101449&sr=8-3&keywords=cell+phone+armband Instead of wearing on your arm, I'd strap it to the ROPs or grab bar. Slightly padded and water resistant...

That looks good to me, but that's just my two cents!

How about 4 Canadian regions? It's a big and spread out country. Maritime: New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, Newfoundland and Labrador Central: Ontario, Quebec, Manitoba Western: British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan Territories: Yukon, NorthWest Territories, Nunivut I...

Every piece of the puzzle helps! A rubber cap shouldn't vibrate loose, so the pressure thing makes sense. If there was enough pressure to force out the dipstick and oil, then I definitely agree it sounds like a vent cap. Vents are usually at the highest point, so chances are it's under the...

That's great to hear all the positive feedback. Newlyme, that's sounds familiar the way you broke it down. Obviously over my head but I'll ask anyway. What is a PHP?

I haven't come across it before but I'll take a stab at it. I'm thinking the steering piston seals are bypassing. The steering would get weak and may seem to be binding. The higher the pressure and the hotter/thinner the oil gets, the more it would bypass, hence weaker steering. With excess...

I've belonged to other forms ( non tractor related) that had a section that sorted the members in to there regions, state, or provinces. It made it a lot easier to have a BBQ or get together when you new who was just around the corner. Or even to offer to lend a hand where more hands make light...

I agree about the clutch for movement but that doesn't make sense that the hydraulics being out. They're usually run directly off the engine. Sounds like there may be another issue also.

I feel your pain! I'm going thru the same thing with my L48. Been to the dealer, I think they must be gold plated. $1200 plus! Still waiting to come across a used set or someone to respond with dimensions so I can build my own. Good luck

Most bolt on or weld on thumbs I've looked at have recommended sizes. They base it on a measurement from the dipper stick to the bucket teeth, with the bucket at 90 degrees. After building and using my own, I'd prefer it a few inches longer than the bucket. I don't usually use the thumb at 90...

I would think you should change whichever is more cost effective. If you have multiple implements that all have the same fittings, then just change the few on the tractor to match. Just my 2 cents! Someone else might know of a reason not to.

It might be too obvious, but I'm thinking start simple. Check hydraulic fluid level first. I'm not sure on a GST transmission, but I believe it's all the same oil and reservoir. Next to that, I've had bad luck with hydraulics on my L48. There is a mini driveshaft on the front of the engine...

If you're thinking of taking the rims off anyway, then cut a few pieces of pipe, notch, and weld them on. It wont be a big amount of weld so it wouldn't effect the tires. Just clean, prime, and paint and the stems will be safe. Then they could be mounted either way without worry. By the looks...
