    Tractor in an enclosed trailer?

    I'm in the market for an enclosed trailer. Since I hate to have anything that is single purpose (except the race bikes :ROFLMAO:) I was thinking about buying one that the L will fit in. I don't have a flat bed trailer, and wouldn't really have a use for one other than towing the L. It seems that...

    Looking for input. This is after 20 hours.

    This guy takes pride in his shovels!

    I never knew there was so much to shovel maintenance. Guess that's what I get for being a young Gen Xer.

    Pro tip- lube the cable!

    Well, at 83 hours, the infamous tach cable broke on my 2501. At $31 and 15 minutes to repair, it was not worth loading it up and leaving it at the dealer for a week. Probably a good thing, too. I noticed the old cable was pretty dry. Rusty as well. So I checked the new one. Also pretty dry...

    Starlink & myQ garage door opener

    Hey orange freaks! I'm having some trouble connecting my door openers (Chamberlain) to the interwebs using the myQ platform. I've searched a little and tried some hints but no luck. I've tried 2 different phones- Droid and iOS. Anyone out there with Starlink done this successfully? My generator...

    Coconut Trucks?

    No, it's not what I just fell off of 😉 Over the past few months, I've noticed these guys everywhere. I do not recall it last summer. Selling coconut meat, pineapple, and they'll stick a straw in one for you to drink the juice too. They are almost as common as firework stands in June. Any other...

    Cross bracing floor joists

    Hey folks, looking for some product advice. The back story is that my parents are getting new floors throughout. Carpet is going away and LVP in. Plus, the kitchens and bathrooms will be getting new stone tile. They asked the contractor about the bounce in the floor in the great room and...

    Front axle pivot maintenance question

    The owners manual says to remove the breather plug, apply grease till it overflows the breather port and reinstall the plug. Easy enough. I only found one plug on the front pivot. The rear does not have one that I can see. Didnt think much of it at the 1st interval. 4 pumps in each and called...

    Carpenter Bees.....

    Yeah, I know. We live in the woods. Bees are gonna do bee things. I leave everything alone that I can. But the Carpenter Bees.... they can be damaging! I don't want to kill pollinators if I don't have to. I found some telltale burrows in untreated wood blocks I use for RV leveling. Also turned...

    Warning: oil thread

    I know there are threads with folks asking about gear oil vs. SUDT² and axle lube. Picked up the goods to do the 50 hour service in my L today. Told the parts dude what I was doing. He pulled it all from the shelf and brought it to the counter. I asked about the 15w40 oil. He said that it's what...

    Southern States 50 Cetane

    Some of you probably know this. I didn't until recently. Southern States sells off road diesel with a minimum cetane of 50. This particular location I was at had the same flavor for on road as well. The PPG was in line with other local stations. So check your local SS if you have one nearby.

    Compost, Topsoil or both?

    We cleared some land to the side of our house to add a U to the driveway so the RV and trailer can just be driven through. What is not going to be driveway is just dirt now. There was a little topsoil there but not much. It was more thicket than woods. Scrub brush, Holly, prickers and small...

    Used attachment prices?!

    I've been scanning a local farm equipment auction for a decent box blade. There is an auction about 4 miles from me with two 60" box blades. One is a King Cutter and the other is not named. I placed a random bid of $700 on the KC one and was outbid pretty quickly. With the 10% premium and 5%...

    Bolt on floorboard- whats it for?

    I tried to find an answer but no luck. Doesn't appear to be holding anything together. For an accessory I don't have?

    Rotate 3rd function bulkhead?

    Playing with my new grapple today. I found that the hoses get pretty squished with the grapple rotated fully back. So I'd like to mount the bulkhead so that the couplings run parallel to the crossbeam. I didn't get around to disassembling the stock U bolted mount today. My thought is to remove...

    Takeuchi TL10 radiator pressure testing

    I know it's not orange, but it's a fantastic machine. Trying to give a neighbor a hand. He has a coolant leak somewhere. It's not something obvious like a burst hose. We want to pressurize the system and see where it's coming from. The cap is larger than what's on my truck so the adapter won't...

    Edge Tamers w/ a tooth bar?

    Hey boys and girls! I searched and came up kinda empty. The web yielded some results from red and green tractors but nothing orange. Specifically I would like to know if folks have successfully installed Edge Tamers over a Piranha TB. My loader is the 526 with the standard duty bucket. At least...

    Wiring diagram for L2501 lighting?

    Hey folks, I have some issues with the rear lighting on my unit. The turn signal on the left works. The right only has the fender light blink. Hazards don't all come on. Anyway, I know it's warranty but if it's simple enough to fix I'd rather just do it. Especially since it's getting dark...

    JD to SSQA adapter?

    Asking for a friend. He has a JD compact tractor and wants to buy my neighbors grapple that's SSQA. Anyone have a recommendation for a brand?

    It will LIFT 1900 but will it HOLD more?

    L2501 3 point... I've got a Heavy Hitch on order. They "don't rate their receiver " but say "lots of customers use them to move campers". Which is one of the things I want it for. The 3 point is rated around 1900 lbs (at the lift point?) but the nose of my heaviest trailer is closer to 2000 on...
