And for only $800 difference to go new. New warranty if needed and no rust. And better resale if/when you upgrade. Much easier to sell a like new trailer than one 20 years old for $500 less than a new one cost.

I’ll also add I’ve followed your threads about getting this tractor. I would at least get new drain plug gaskets for every drain plug you plan on servicing if not new drain plugs also depending on their condition. IE if they are rounded or damaged from using the wrong size socket on them.

When I changed the transmission fluid in my M (15 gallons) I used a heavy duty storage tote. I use the $12 harbor freight battery pump to pump it into 5 gallon buckets to recycle. I use the empty hydro fluid buckets with lids and pour spouts. I would pass on the drain valve for this situation...

Like new Dewalt DCF897 20V 3/4 impact. Tool only $300 OBO Located in Mobile AL. Shipping available

Have you downloaded a service manual for your model? Or at least the owners manual? They are useful in many ways even just the diagrams. Also Messicks has good diagrams to show parts layouts. If you can see fuel in the tank I doubt you ran it dry. I ran mine almost out of fuel when I added this...

I’ll get a picture of the filter I added to my ZD this evening. Do the fuel tanks look clean? Have algae in them? I also replaced the tank selector with a Tee. I still need to add check valves to them. If I park it overnight on an incline the fuel level will equalize and the lower tank will...

Don’t fix the cause of the issue just pull the radiator every time it plugs up since you was able to do that before.

I’ve installed aluminum window screen on top of the factory screen. Have to pull it out and clean it more often but the debris doesn’t get into the radiator. You’re not doing it any favors by not having at least the factory screen in place.

Mine doesn’t have a fitting on the jack and it was also difficult to move when I got it. I just sprayed the threads with Kroil and lifted it up a few times. I spray it every time I grease everything else or when I change blades.

Sorry for your loss. There was a M7040 Cab and loader with 1,800 hours listed last week in south Alabama for $30k. This is at a dealership.

No not completely. Just drain just below the sight glass. Or if you’re comfortable have a drain pan ready and remove the old sight glass and install the new one.

More details will help like Wolfman suggested. My suggestion assumes that when hot it’s a no crank situation.

Add to the above go through and check all your connections to the starter and battery first.

I would say it’s the starter or the starter relay. Works when cold but doesn’t when hot/heat soaked. Try to find a place local to you and have the starter rebuilt. Way cheaper than buying a new OEM one.

I’ll add to the starting situation. You have the parking brake switch, left and right control lever switch and the seat switch.

Is the model you’re looking at in Bardstown KY? If it is it’s listed on tractor house for $22K. Two others listed are 4wd for $28.5k and $28.9k. Thats not enough price difference to consider a 2wd model. I believe sometime last year there was a MX5100 2wd with FEL listed for $12k that had under...

Only you can decide if you need the scalp wheels or not. My yard is what I would call flat and my wheels hit quite a bit. My ZD331 has a 60” deck.

Just looked on Messicks. It’s listed under options, so it’s not standard. Showing $23.

Just guessing because the 2wd models are gear drive only, some responses say you need an HST for loader work, or that it’s easier. Personal preference, IMHO hydraulic shuttle is the best not counting CVT on larger machines. Learn to operate a gear drive correctly and it’s a non issue. Both my...

The only difference in the steering is that with a full hydraulic setup the steering wheel might not end up on the same position all the time. There is a reason most say 4x4 is recommended with a FEL. I wouldn’t even consider a 2wd tractor with a loader unless it’s a second tractor. It can be...
