    Seeder/planter

    In my area alot of guys buy a 4 row corn planter or a 10 foot drill " cheap" split them make 2, sell one and double their money. It seems like the smaller the implement the more it costs. Guys were asking 800 for a 2 row steel wheeled planter in the weeds with no plates. You can find a 4 row for...

    Snow skis on a box blade.

    From what I read guys likes the skis to have the box blade float a little better so not to pick up gravel. A hydraulic toplink has been mentioned numerous times and something I'll definitely look into.

    Snow skis on a box blade.

    I use the back blade for pushing into the snow bank also so I try to keep it level but understand what you mean.

    Snow skis on a box blade.

    I never had a major issue with the The only time I had issues with the pucks sinking in on my atv blade was when the spring thawing occurred..... which I probably shouldn't have been plowing anyways.

    Seeder/planter

    I use to use a fertilizer cart and just dragged the seed in. A tire, old matress or spike tooth drag works. I also have a 2 row corn planter. My atv could pull it too. Any old antique grain drill under 10 feet would work for your needs. Your best bet is auctions. They go under 300 most of the...

    Snow skis on a box blade.

    I usually have the stopper set or a dot on my 3 point lever to know when to stop my rear blade or box blade. I see some rear blades have skid shoes, or snow skis on like a front atv or pick up truck blade. I saw on other fourms a person did with with their box blade. I kind of had a similar...

    Starting out high for a pass and working your way down helps too for not having such huge pieces of debris.

    If you're interested in a fred cain you could look for a used dearbourne unit. They can be found in fence line, or auction lots cheap. Food plot guys think they're gold though.

    What Attachment?

    I had an old 2 acre hayfield that wasn't producing at the time. I only had 2 atvs at the time so I brought home a garden tractor with a tiller from work. It took most of the weekend but I got it worked up. I did find a bigger rock half buried and the tiller hoped over it. I think a tiller...

    Rear Blade Angles

    I'm not a fan of flipping the blade either. The snow doesn't roll off from it, or you can't toss the snow going fast, but it works for other people. My box blade leaves a nice smooth surface with the 2nd blade and very little gravel pick up, but a box blade doesn't work for everyone either.

    Rear Blade Angles

    My lx2610. 24.8hp pulls my 6ft heavy duty Dearborn blade nicely in snow and dirt. Anything over 8 inches or wet it struggles a bit. In normal snow id like something I could offset or something a bit wider. Ive been using the box blade in snow and have been able to push snow with that very well...

    Picture your vehicles with the stickers.

    I did some de advertising today. The company I bought the tractor is just okay. They use to be a honda and stihl dealer with A++ old fashion service. New owners introduced, kubota, scag, and polaris in the line and keep adding. It's a revolving door and never see familiar faces when going in...

    Small Utility Trailer

    I picked this one up for 100.00 and was pretty solid. One day a random person drove by and asked if 300 would take it.........." here's a walk around of it, it's not 100% road worthy but if you want it sure". I regret selling it lol. When I worked landscaping and going to the gravel pit or...

    Small Utility Trailer

    They're about 300.00 so not terrible. I wouldn't consider a new metal yard cart. They bend looking at them. I bought what was a mid size running gear by farm tuff. It was rated for 1500 pounds also. I built it and being 180 I was flexing it. I ended up buying a real 10 running gear for the same...

    Do you like your LAND PRIDE 48" Box blade?

    I bought a rear blade cheap at an auction for my lx2610. It was okay for snow but it just windowed it. I also used it to knock down a berm from my plow. Again it was okay. I got on a box blade kit around Christmas........others must have too. They were going left and right on market place. I...

    Knee pain from HST?

    That's crazy. I was supposed to have a knee replacement at 34 but the surgeon said I was too young for that so he pieced my knee together.

    L3902 winter operating problem

    As mentioned above any antigel in it? I too live in WI. I usually let my lx2610 idle for 10 or 15 minutes and even then kind of slow responsive.

    Knee pain from HST?

    It is hard on my knee where the pedal is located especially trying to go backwards with the lost of 15% range of motion in my right leg. I liked the pedal set up of the John Deeres but couldn't beat the Kubota deals. 2 years ago I stopped drinking soda and coffee and drink water, water, water...
