I had an idea pop into the old noggin & would like some opinions. A while back I picked up a small magnetic oil pan type heater for next to nothing, then came to realize that my B7100 has an aluminum pan & no accessible area on the block large enough to stick it there. Plus, the consensus seems...

The current thread on what oil to use reminded me of an old oil preference experience I had years ago. I present it as entertainment, not pertinent to tractors or today's oils. Sorry in advance for the long post. Back in the early '70s my best friend & I each had Honda CB500 Fours, and we...

I recently picked up an old yard roller/road compactor. (sorry, keep forgetting to take pics) Very old school, thinnest material is 5/16" steel, 61 1/2" wide, weighs 335lbs empty, should be 911lbs full. It's pretty rusty, approximately 60 years old, & my place in the mountains occasionally gets...

Saw one of these at a tractor dealer near Wickenburg, AZ. It's a Hinomoto JF1:

One of my best friends (after all, he sold me my Kubota:D) has purchased a poor substitute for the Kubota, a Yanmar 1500. It had a couple of missing bearings & broken gears in the left 4wd knuckle, and he thinks he has all the parts needed on order to put it back together. Now for the question...

Anybody in Arizona know of a 48" to 60" wide steel lawn roller for sale? I keep thinking someone must have one they want to get rid of.

Did we lose a thread about what we listen to? Man, I'm out of town for a few days and the world starts falling apart!:p

I used to see a neat little orange "Orange Tractor Talk" icon next to the favorites in my browser history list.... not all I get is a generic blue dot. What's up with that?

How about killing the spammer in the Service & Grey Market sections?

What's up with that? I realize ads are necessary to support the forum, but why bad mouth a great American sheriff? Lots of false statements & innuendo in this ad. For example it states that Arpaio is anti-immigration.... absolutely false.... he is anti-ILLEGAL immigration. There is a...

Has anyone built anything to pull a small trailer or garden cart with the backhoe still attached? I would like to do this, but nothing leaps to mind. Ideas?

Anybody have any experience with one of these lawn rollers? http://www.tractorsupply.com/ohio-steel-920-lb-steel-lawn-roller-24-in-x-52-in--4404989 I'm considering buying one for driveway compacting & such....

Was it just me, or were you folks missing in action for a couple of days?

I also found this- pretty interesting! Check out the ROPS & Log Splitter! As a side note, I actually have the FEL, Backhoe, & Box Scraper shown here.:)

Gurn's post on his L175 sales brochure inspired me to dig this out.... Cover, Page 1 & 2

Or at least the weekend. First was a familiar looking radiator hose..... the seller said it was for an '85 Toyota pickup, part #16573-38020. Turns out to be a perfect match for my B7100 upper radiator hose. Not a bad buy for .25 cents. (Actually, the sale was 50% off at the time I bought it...

I read recently (here I think) that early 4 wheel drive B7100s had a "ball" type front axle (old jeep style) and later ones had a gear hub type axle. My 1980 is the old style. My questions are: Are they interchangeable? Exact drop in, can be made to fit, or completely incompatible? What year...
