The recall applies to all XG850's but the issue certainly does not. When the H&R guy came by I asked him how many he found with any type of issue. His response was only one out of dozens that he's inspected and that one he said was fairly minor. Recall that there were only 5 incidents (only 2...

H&R came by yesterday morning. Took him about 10 minutes to check my RTV. We spent more time talking about blacksmithing and making knives than we did anything else. My plan was to watch what he did and take some pics, but the power company was here at the same time, so missed it all. :(

Since I'm an Honors Graduate of the Tim Allen School of Overdoing It, I not only filled my rear tires (RV antifreeze and water, 47 gallons each or 385 lbs each) but also made a pair of concrete, lead and steel wheel weights. They weigh ~250 lbs each for a total of another 500 lbs on the rear...

It should have been obvious that it was a rhetorical question: Banning criminals solves the problem; ergo they don't want to solve the problem. They want to ban guns. But only guns in the hands of law-abiding citizens; which by the by, is the opposite of criminals. Duh.

Why don't they just ban criminals?

So what happened to the OP and his tractor?

Here is an excellent example of how not to do it; warning GRAPHIC!:

AND is cut to the correct length. Too short: Twist the PTO shafts = $$ Too Long: Damage the gearbox = $$$$ -or- Damage the tractor = $$$$$$$$$

No offense, but it sounds like you bought into the TF kool-aid. I've talked to those guys before, years ago. if they told me the sun rose in the east, I'd be up tomorrow at dawn with a compass. In short, they are full of horse puckey. Simple 5 second search gives lie to their lies...

You went down the same regulatory/bureaucratic/horsepuckey hole that I went down over 2-3 years ago. I was referring to the physical differences between two steel fuel tanks: one rated for Combustible, one Not. It basically comes down to a fee the manufacturer is willing to pay to get it...

What's the difference between a tank rated for combustibles and one that is not? There's your answer.

When I bought my grapple, I thought I wanted a 60" or so. Fortunately, unkkonw to me, they were out of 60's and only had 48", 72" and 84". Hence, I bought the 48" version. I've never regretted it. Could I have lifted and moved this this with anything other than a 48"?

Don't listen to anyone who says it can be done and works - it can't and doesn't. Massive failure waiting to happen, death, destruction and possibly (probably) world hunger. There's no way I'd do it. Pics should prove the point: And by the same token, don't listen to anyone who...

Andrew Camarata has had numerous failures of this type, mostly on exavators bucket pins. All have the same characteristic: a groove in the middle where it fractures. His fix is to install the grease fitting on the machine, not the pin itself and then replace the pin with a solid pin with no...
