    Adjusting B2301 telescoping stabilizer arms

    Welcome to the forum! It's mathematics. There is a range of adjustment for each stabilizer- typically, holes line up (to pin the stabilizer) from 3/16" to 1/2", depending on the manufacturer. Implement frames can vary in width, so once the lift arms are attached to the implement, it's possible...

    Concealed Carry Gun?

    I had one, and wish that I hadn't sold it. Mine ran great. I didn't sell it because of problems, just bored and wanted the next gun. It's low on round count, but it is small, carries easy, and it's a decent caliber for how small it is. I also REALLY like my Sig P365. Also small, easy to carry...

    Scheduled hose replacement?

    If it isn't broke, I generally don't fix it. I agree that some things should be preventative maintenance, but new hoses every two years is extreme. My first thought would be "Are they using junk hoses on my expensive tractor?".

    Land Pride adjustments for my pasture

    Welcome to the forum! If you're mowing (I'm assuming that you are using a bush hog/rotary mower) with the front mower skids touching the ground, that's too low. I mow with mine riding about 3 inches or so off of the ground, and it's about right. In addition, you might check the position of the...

    Installed telescoping stabilizers on 3-point hitch, PTO driveshaft is grinding on them

    The stabilizers are installed correctly. The pivot plate can be flipped upside down- it isn't concentric- and it will give more clearance. I've seen the same issue numerous times, and it usually involves a larger than normal universal joint. The profile of the stabilizers is only marginally...

    Will you buy from EA again?

    I wouldn't. Trust is quickly broken and hard to build back. There are too many other options, who haven't broken trust or abused customers. I have no intention of punishing EA by not buying their stuff, but I won't disregard other companies who have operated their businesses honorably...

    Everything Attachments says on Fb they are back

    I hope that they get it sorted out and can start back up, but they have a lot of trust to rebuild. That will take time, and may never be fully restored. The manner of how they shut down, and how people had to struggle so long to get reimbursed (if they did), goes beyond warm fuzzies and blind...

    What is the perfect tractor for you, if you could have any tractor you wanted, and why?

    It's conversation. It's opportunity to get to know each other better.

    What is the perfect tractor for you, if you could have any tractor you wanted, and why?

    i would want a John Deere 4005. The next model up from my 790. It would be about ideal for my needs.

    Used tractor price negotiation

    Negotiation would be dealer-specific, and not a rule of thumb thing. Do your homework so that when you hone in on a tractor/tractors, you already know what they are typically selling for. Study Tractorhouse, both selling and sold/auction prices, along with Facebook Marketplace and Craigslist...

    L3301 3 point hitch parts

    They'll be the same as an L2502 and an L3902, so go to the dealership and measure one of those.

    Anyone see this casting break?

    I think that you are right, Dan. It looks like the lift cylinder casting, and it would most likely be fractured by internal pressure. This didn't happen by leaving the mower up while going to get a drink. Ulu, sorry this happened to you. Despite the reason for coming here, welcome to the forum!

    Stabilizer of Kubota 2660

    Stabilizers, whether turnbuckle (which is what you have) or telescoping, is there to keep the implement from swaying side to side. The proper use is to install the implement, raise it off of the ground, position it where you want it, then adjust the stabilizers until there is very little (1/2"...

    Loader arms faded...will warranty cover this?

    The only tractor manufacturer that I'm aware of that does powdercoating is TYM, and that's just on the sheet metal.
