    L245DT medium or light duty pallet forks?

    Thanks all, I think the light duty would be plenty. I dont plan on doing any digging or prying with bucket forks. Just something to put a sheet of plywood on and move brush and construction scraps with and to help raise some walls on our house (when we get to that point). Maybe unload a pallet...

    Do you have any pictures of your subframe build or any of the tractor with subframe? I'm making a subframe to fix a weak front end, but would like to be able to mount a backhoe (down the road). Thanks

    L245DT medium or light duty pallet forks?

    The light duty (bucket) forks look like they would be about right, but I just wanted to know if anyone thinks the medium duty (bucket forks) would be better? I have the m1200 FEL...

    Hey Vic and pro fabricators....?

    Plans are to have the subframe made with bolting points (high and low) on the main FEL support, by welding some "tabs" with bolt holes to the FEL vertical support, it shouldnt weaken the support as it would by drilling more holes. The FEL has support from the bell housing to mid tranny but not...

    Hey Vic and pro fabricators....?

    I have one of the little 110v Harbor Freight wire welders, under 100$ it was a good deal, if you put it on high, wire feed max and stay in the same area for a bit, you can actually get a pretty good weld on some heavy stuff... My welder is my uncle, lives a few houses down, has years of heavy...

    Hey Vic and pro fabricators....?

    Greg, Hope all is well up in Alaska, I hear the weather is pretty nasty on the west coast up there. ( I lived in Fairbanks for 3 years, LOVED IT). I sure would love to see a couple of pics of your set up. My welder finished welding up my front pinion (snapped an inch off the end), so I'll be...

    l245dt

    My front pinion gear snapped about an inch from the end.... I had a guy that wanted to try and fix it, but I'm going to get new gears. I'll have to buy the ring and pinion set, so it will be close to $600, plus some new Orings for the front diff.

    White smoke after running out of fuel ?

    White smoke is a sign its starving for fuel, as is the rough idle.... any trash in the tank would have been sucked in just before it ran out. Blead it and it should be fine, if not check/change the fuel filter.

    Hey Vic and pro fabricators....?

    GREAT... do you know if anyone has taken any pictures of something like this? I plan to do a detailed fix, with pics. Who knows... maybe a company (or fabrication shop) might want to make something like this to sell as an aftermarket kit... ( i've looked and looked) seems like something that...
