We have a houdini dog that doesn't know the meaning of a fence :rolleyes: Around four years ago, we put in one of those invisble fences to keep the dogs in the yard. Fence has worked really well except for one issue. The contoller for the fence seems to be pretty sensitive to lightning. Came...

Nothing like having to go into work early for a delivery. Driving down the road, stuck in traffic and having a message pop up on the dash that says "pull over now!!" :confused: Then having the truck quit :mad: and having to push 14,000lbs worth of truck and load out of the interstate :rolleyes...

I did a search but didn't find what size turf tire I need for the front and rears on my l1501. Which is the equivalent to the l185. Checked the site and tractor data with no luck. In this case I'm looking for rim and tire size. Doesn't have to be an exact match since it's two wheel drive. Just...

It's that time of year again :D share your grilling secrets :cool: I'll tend to do whole meals on the grill. Yesterday was bbq chicken, grilled asparagus, and roasted potatoes. My asparagus and potatoes always change slightly since I just throw in seasonings for what sounds good. Yesterdays...

Okay guys. Got a question for you about freezers. Wife came home with a frigidaire freezer the other night. Picked it up from someone who was downsizing and didn't need three of them. Freezer is an upright. It was hauled on it's side. So it was left upright for 24 hours before plugging it in...

I started out with a Chicago electric 110 mig for the house. Not real happy with how it works. Fairly decent for thin metals. Got back into stick welding and realized I'm better with stick welding. So I picked up this beauty today. 1975 Montgomery Ward. Got it for free to a good home :D guy...

This is just out of curiosity. I noticed that some of the threads have a five star rating and some don't. Was just curious how they get there ratings :confused:

Post your off the wall pics you catch your pets doing. Gave the dogs s bath last night. And after changing my clothes, I went to grab my shirt but it wasn't where I left it. This is what I found :rolleyes: Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Started building a box blade to fit my l1501. Needed one that was 54" and didn't like the prices. Started scrounging around and managed to find most of a sheet of 1/4 plate steel that someone was getting rid of. Was able to pick it up for $50. Then it cost a case of beer to get it run through a...

I think I would have to reconsider flying if I happened to look out and seen this Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ok guys, I have a question for the gear heads. My 09 gmc started acting really strange yesterday. Truck has the 5.3 litre v8 with the eco feature where it switchs to a four cylinder when coasting or slightly above idle. Here's where things got strange. Wife and I were going into town, let...

My wife says that she could see me doing this :rolleyes: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=EglOsfErtaE Caution, bad language!!! But funny :D

Seems like the way things are going, all the changes that have been made. The guberment screwing with things. And the lazy bums collecting welfare instead of being productive in society, more of us are ranting and taking over threads ;) So here's a place to rant about what ever you like :D...

Here's a classic example of what happens when lug nut's are hammered on with an impact till they won't move any more. Instead of tightening to the proper torque spec. Person noticed a wobble after installing a trailer tire. Pulled there impact out and hit the lug nut's a second time with out...

Some people were wondering about fixing wallowed out holes on a back blade. Here's a perfect example. The holes were wallowed out so bad, that when it was in the straight position, it would rotate side to side around 30 to 35 degrees. Put it in the 22 degree slot and it would rotate almost 60...

So, we were discussing torque specs on a bolt today. This bolt needs to be torqued to 335 ft/lbs. We have to use an impact gun to install due to a couple different factors. The main being that there isn't a way to efficiently lock the motor to tighten by hand with out a bunch of labor. Talked to...

Cleaned out the garage and posted a bunch of stuff on Craig's list. Had two offers for my lawn mower and attachments. Ended up selling the mower separately and trading a cheap dump cart and aerator for a one bottom plow and a box blade. Box blade was off a scut and wasn't set up for rippers...

Has any one had any dealings with carrington mortgage services? Seems that my mortgage has been sold to them. Which I've had happen before, but always to a company I've heard of. Looked them up on line and they seem scary as hell :eek:

Theres a reason why I swear by tire chalks. Found this on another site. http://www.yeahmotor.com/trucks/how-not-to-drive-a-ford-f-3500-on-a-trailer/ This one make you go "huh" http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=4o6O-oktsFE

Wife and I were out picking up her Christmas gift. Ya, I know, little early... but something shes been wanting for a while. Any way, had to use the truck. Which she hasn't been in for a while. So any way, she informs me I should get a new one :D:D My trucks an 04 f150, with 140,000 miles and a...
