    Modding old gas log splitter to new BX23S

    I have a stand alone splitter and prefer not to mix fluids too. But I have a 3pt trailer receiver I made and I welded some 2" box solidly on the splitter. I can then put it on the 3pt to take where I want and can leave it in the woods to use or on the tractor. I try to handle my wood as few as...

    L2501DT Clicking but won't start

    I just read some of that, It sounds like a low voltage going thru all the switches due to some resistance not being able to pull in the oem relay. But by re-feeding that relay from the bat terminal thru a small relay that is able to pull in despite low voltage and it works. So still a switch...

    L2501DT Clicking but won't start

    Hey I checked mine as a known good and here is what I see. I can start mine standing next to it with brake on or off, the gear shift in gear and range in neutral. If I have the pto in there is no clicking at all, put it down and it starts. I held my range selector out and no start or click but...

    L2501DT Clicking but won't start

    Well if you can use a meter then that is a good way to start. Have you checked the battery terminals since you did the replacement? Maybe a poor connection there? I know I can start mine standing next to it if the range lever is in neutral and I think the brake set. Don't know if I have done it...

    L2501DT Clicking but won't start

    You say it is a L2501DT, so no HST treadle, I wonder if it might be in the range selector switch. If that isn't right it would not turn over over and would shut down if you got off the seat. Maybe a jiggle on that when you try cranking? Bill

    Shortage of oil and filters

    I have a set for the 3pt I made probably 15 years ago or more with some 2" square tube. I have used them for everything and I palletize my firewood and move that. I bought forks for the kubota loader but quite a learning curve to that! Broke some pallets last year. I just added a backup camera...

    Shortage of oil and filters

    Well I will probably get roasted for this but yes I added power steering, No loader but the high, low. direct sherman in it. Here is where the purists will disagree. I altered the steering with electric one out of some gm I think it was a saturn. Quite a bit of work but my arthritic shoulders...

    Shortage of oil and filters

    I see you have an 8N too! I have a 1950, 3 years older than me! It is my plowing tractor for snow. I added a front pump and have hydraulics with a front mount dearborn plow. I changed the mounting and added power angle so it works quite well on my 300' plus driveway. I couldn't get rid of it...

    Shortage of oil and filters

    I spent $535 in kubota dealer last month because I see this coming. I bought 2 pails of UDT2, 2 10 qt motor oil several oil filters, hydraulic filter, air filter, fuel filters and i think that was it. I might be missing something of what I picked up but figured It could be scarce when a change...

    Shortage of oil and filters

    This isn't about orange but red, My 2006 miata. I went to make an appointment to get it inspected yesterday and because I had carpal tunnel surgery on my right hand on the 18th I asked if they would do my oil and filter. I usually do all my own work and they said sure but he needed to make sure...

    Fuel Capacity & Usage rate

    I have a L2501DT which I think gets a little better fuel use than the HST. I too found the gauge way off. I average about 0.5 gal per hour. I have taken a flat wooden molding about an inch wide and less than an eighth thick about 2 ft long. I can tip it with the top towards the front of the...

    L1501DT Gear Forks and Some Service Advice.

    That is great Michael! I have an old ford 8N. It got to locking up years ago, I took the shift cover off not really know what I would find. It was a dog point screw in the linkage that was sheared off letting it get into 2 gears at once. Well I didn't have one but removing another one I copied...

    Whitetail buck on trail cam

    I agree, nice for the area, I'm the next county over from you. Haven't seen any rubs yet in back of the house. Wife and I have a contest spotting rubs and making them with a sharpie. She usually wins as I can walk by one she can spot from a long ways off Bill

    Landpride SGC0660

    I see someone else wrote about cutting teeth on the model land pride I had ordered so that factors in for a little more because I hadn't thought about that and being new to grapples. Bill

    Landpride SGC0660

    Did you take a look at one? it was $2,425 plus shipping of $150.60 for me. They told me they don't do the tax for NY so that is my "responsibility" It was a couple hundred more than the LP but I figure it was a crap shoot if I would get the LP in march. I cut my own firewood and I wanted it...
