Damn boats!!!!! Guess I will see you at the next "Coast Guard Boater Safety" meeting.. ;)

No I was referring to the black part. Thats the part I beveled by “eye”. The orange part is the "factory bucket" In regard to your diagram, I am referring to your “Y” measurement. That is zero inchs/mm tall on my toothbar. Mine comes to a point there. I suppose I was thinking that I wanted...

Mine come down to a point. If I were to guess, i would say the angle is about 55-65 degrees from horizontal.

Congratulations sir🍻(y) That looks like a great rake! I especially like the "hydraulic tilt”. Is that big yellow cone a part of it, or an “optical illusion”?

My “best guess” is it’s something electrical. Just because I think that all of that other stuff failing AND the tach cable failing at the same time, would be “very coincidental”…….But I have seen some strange sh1t before, so I guess its possible. I would start with the typical trouble shooting...

This is the "last thread on earth” that I need to follow…………….Yet, here I am ;)

Give me a few minutes, I will go take a “close up” of mine. I beveled mine “by hand”, so it was all “eye-balled”.

Thanks for the tips. I will have to try this “dry’ish method”. I too was kinda “soaking” it……. I mean, if a little is good, more must be better…..right?…….:ROFLMAO::)

Whatever you do, don’t use (insert name here) for liquid ballast….. JK :) But in all seriousness, the stuff you posted about Ospho is very interesting. I have tried using it for “very light surface rust” on some of the signs I have made, and although it neutralizes the rust, its a “bitch”...

I don’t know the “technical reasons” why you can, nor can I tell you where/how the fluid goes, or if its “bad for the system" However, I do it all the time. Mostly/obviously for safety reasons. My "uneducated reasoning” is that you are just ‘neutralizing” the pressure in the system. But...

Lots of great ideas on how to store those things. The only thing missing is “motivation." Thats the hard part for me personally………. A few times a year I clean the cab out and it includes “unf————g” all the tangled rachet straps and rolling them up neatly, and storing them. When I get done...

Excellent idea my good man! That is a very elegant solution. I have said it before, but I'll say it again. This site is loaded with very talented people and good ideas!!!!!! 🍻

Wow….I thought ‘grease and oil” threads were tough to follow…. I don’t "have a dog in this fight” but sometimes it’s true that “ignorance is bliss" When my dealer said “Do you want your tires “loaded”?" I just said just “yes”………………I don’t know if they put beet juice, salt water, Rim Guard...

Love it!!!! I think you will be very happy with your choice. (y)

I used those exact (nearly exact) teeth for my homemade “tooth bar”. I did a “Non-scientific” test, and was shocked at how much better the bucket performed with the tooth bar attached. I think you will be pleasantly surprised with the performance.

I applaud the “idea” sir……. However, my “reality” is a far cry from your idea. Here is my “storage reality" Kind of reminds me of this…….

Damn this thread……………... You guys are KILLING me……... Before the “tragic boating accident” I loved my Henrys….. And @McMXi that gun is “on my short list” too……I have wanted one for a very long time… LOVE IT:love:

Thank you gentlemen. Here is my write up of how I made it, and how it mounts. It was pretty easy, and it works great, and it is truly “quick connect” (takes “literally" 15 seconds) I have trailered it back and forth, thousands of miles, and never had a problem with it...

I do not have chains, however, in all fairness my tractor is a “toy” that resides at my cottage, so it does not see substantail amounts of work, especially in the winter. For the small amount of work that I do in the winter, those tires are pretty good. Here is a pic of me (and the grandkids)...

When I was looking for my 2501, lift capacity was one of the factors I “weighed”. In order to get what I considered “a substantial increase”, the 4701 (or larger….think M or MX,) was the only option. So thats a pretty big “increase” in tractor….(or maybe things have changed?) I don’t...
