Welcome - great helpful group here. I'm biased of course, but found the 2501 to be "just right" Kick myself all the time: For not buying it sooner!! :p

Absolutely incredible deal - seems too good to be true given the resale on each component? But, they are out there. It's way off market given the pic and hours Would be prepared with $ & trailer, but I would put eyes on it and confirm ownership etc. (you already know about liens)

My experience says to rake as much of the sizable ones out of it before they spread it & plant. Raking wet is miserable and you need to find that "just right" where they pop out but don't clump. However, I am in the middle of this battle doing extended reshaping & grading turning a slope into...

This group is awesome! - following this thread. I explored initially and then put off the T&T or maybe just the T... This was after discovering the blessings of a BB the hard way (read doing without). Still in the DIY manual adjust but it gets old fast. FWIW- Have the BH77 and the 3rd fxn for...

Something to try: Not sure about your specific model, but on my older tractor and other traditional 4WD, it can sometimes help things to move the drivetrain slightly - rock or use engine to move a bit? Then engage & welcome!

So first of all, welcome and you came to the right place. You definitely want to read the manuals and IMO do a Google search and check out a few videos of on/off process. YES to removing the 3PH bars A few things to consider: So mine is smaller BH77and I spent way more time the first time...

FWIW - Was the wheel bearings combined with a weak hub design on my smaller old Ford. Know it's apples and oranges vs your M4700...

Welcome and here you go! The initial maintenance section has decent line drawings Edit - look for the workshop manual :cool: There's an L2501 Operators manual including service intervals, and full workshop service manual for download here...

Thanks both! :cool: Exactly along with what I was thinking. I knew someone had to have gone there first and didn't want to reinvent the wheel. I was going to sacrifice my old poly edge but this is better, faster, cheaper.

Thanks all - I know a blade could be useful to have. Wanted to know if I was thinking more along the lines of McGiver vs Bubba mods on this. Only looking for a patch rather than LT and am prob overthinking it. FWIW The 7' Jeep plow punches way above its weight and I have had it for 20 years...

I had an unfortunate accident over the holidays & my Jeep TJ that I plow with and it is going into the body shop sometime over the next 4-8 weeks. Of course, it is prime snow time here in PA. I was thinking about using the tractor bucket as backup only (know it is not ideal and don't have a...

Another company sold decent budget replacement teeth that people here recommended. I thought I saved it but can't find now, but there is a thread in the last year that covers it. I haven't needed it yet but no doubt I will with all of the rock that "grows" on my property :p

Welcome & You will LOVE either choice - 100% game changer on getting real work done. FYI - I came down on the non-emissions side and most of my work is via the hydraulic pump (it's the same on 25/39). This means I do more with hydraulics than rear pto & ground-pulling power (I LOVE my BH as...

Like everything, it's bang for the buck and how long you keep your stuff - Mine is a smaller big box that I got on early sale Ultima ZT1-50. It overachieves and I estimate I cut 3-6 ac depending on the week. You are right that if half ac is the spec anything budget will do the trick for...

Had to be Kawasaki or equivalent for me - Am done dealing with stuff not built to last

I went to a ZT 50" from a 60" mmm for everyday cutting. It gets the job done fast - I ended up in the CCadet with the smaller size just to get the Kawasaki engine vs Kohler (never gain for me). Husq look well built and rated (use their Ch Saws) The slope and hills require adjustments to your...

I agree - peeled all the ones I thought were useless. Moved a few. It was excessive for sure. DEFINITELY no dealership stuff on my cars. Left one on the tractor between the mounts...

I have a TJ also (& love it). Sounds like you put it on so you know it is solidly mounted to the frame and not hard to remove (other than weight etc) If it were me I would not buy another either. I would leave it mounted and use a cable come-along puller rather than attempting to use the...

I'm in PA. Synthetic 5W-40 for me (choose your favorite flavor ;)) Mines Rotella T6

I'm with those above - one of my serious quirks or pet peeves with new vehicles of any form. IF I know ahead of time, I can adjust but have rarely done so. FWIW - I keep and maintain my stuff long-term. I would have said something right away at delivery - You should expect compensation & 50H...
