    M5-111 Error code headaches

    Emissions warranty is 5 years on everything and color don't matter a bit. they are all having issues., orange, green, blue, red, all the same issues I think I'd request a loaner from the dealer and Kubota should cover it. One jug at a time, like that. No jugs here. both mine are pre 4. I do...

    Crazy times. Ammunition thread.

    I haven't bough a factory loaded round in 20 years except for rimfire 22LR, 17 HMR's and Mach 2's. I make all my own stuff including wildcats.

    Inletting Marlin 336 Stock

    Not true. Today the very best rifles all wear synthetic stocks, mostly carbon fiber and... None of the high end stock makers make a wood stock. MacMillan don't, Bartlien don't, none that I know of though you can still buy a wood stocked gun from a mass producer like Savage, but all the high...

    PTO Shield

    I have to, part of what I do. You don't run a grain leg from the seat. You have to be off the tractcor to feed it. Same way with a pto chipper. You don't sit in the seat to operate it.

    Fuel delivery

    Most storage tanks come with a level float installed, at least all the ones I've seen do but probably not the 'repurposed' ones.

    PTO Shield

    I will say that I did have my pto shaft come disconnected from the output stub once (the coupler was the pin type versus the collar type which I prefer and the only thing that saved the pto shaft was the fact that I had the pto shaft chain secured to the pto shield or the shaft would have did a...

    Inletting Marlin 336 Stock

    Dremel tool and patience. I've done a number of replacement stocks over the ears, mostly for trigger upgrades. I don't like wood stocks as a rule, I prefer carbon fiber or polymer as they are unaffected by moisture and are lighter plus they require no special care. I have a couple vintage...

    Fuel delivery

    Mine is a 1000 gallon self berming ASTM certified fuel tank that I have my local fuel supplier fill when needed, but I also watch how the pricing is. Mine is hard plumbed to the standby diesel generator and I use a 110 volt Fill rite pump and hose with shutoff nozzle to fill the tractors and a...

    I need advice on a flow restrictor

    Sounds like Internet folklore to me.... I make my own restrictors from coins drilled with an orifice. Been doing that for years.

    FORD DEATH WOBBLE

    I never trade anything in. I sell outright privately. I always pay cash as well and I always buy low mileage off lease from a selling dealer that sells the particular make I'm looking at and I research carefully, what I buy. No impulse buying ever. I don't 'romance any vehicle or tractor for...

    FORD DEATH WOBBLE

    Two different things for 2 entirely different end uses. Sure as hell not driving my tractors to the grocery store and likewise, not using my Focus to pull implements.. I want good fuel mileage. I REQUIRE power when farming. Neither of them coincide or have anything in common..... duh. I...

    FORD DEATH WOBBLE

    Lugbolt, do like I do and buy an off lease truck with low miles.. let the original lessor take the depreciation hit. Bought the last 3, wife's Burb, my Focus and her brother's Lincoln all off lease with the balance of the factory warranty which I extended on all 3. Her Burb stickered for...

    My Ship Came In

    You can always tell a scam when they won't leave a call back number. I wonder how many people fall for that stuff. My dad always told me 'If it's too good to be true, it probably isn't'.
