Joe, I have to say I kind of admire your approach. Personally, I have to understand what I am doing before I do it! Seems like you approach things differently, but things work out in the end...

Be careful what you say here...or you may suffer the wrath of the "Backhoe on a tractor" skeptics... :D :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO: ...But they do exist...LOL

Everybody wants to equate AI to humans. Reality is that the little robot just was programmed how to reprogram the others to follow it. Not like any decision was made. Just a bit of hacking...shame on the producers of the larger robot followers in this case.

With very few flat surfaces I also keep both tractors in 4WD all the time. No paved surfaces here except the main road that I am never on...

There's an online heavy equipment forum but I don't have the link handy, but I'm sure you can find it if you do an online search. Lots of people with experience with excavators there. Haven't been there for a while, but there may even be a separate forum for excavators. Take a look there and...

Ladder chains with turf tires are probably perfect. With R4 tires my experience with my B series tractor is that they fall between the lugs. Not great. My son in law got a different style chains for his BX and they are great. BUT not ladder. I forget what they are called. Think about this...

LOL. Actually, I did not put the period there...I seem to have this issue all the time. Auto correct happens and it seems to take place AFTER I read what I typed. I just meant to say that I was not sure what the steering set up was on the B2910. Wasn't questioning anything. But I find it...

I was responding to the OP's comment that his hydrostatic steering wheel keeps turning after the wheels reach the full travel point. Was just verifying that with my hydrostatic steering the steering wheel locks when the max travel point of the wheels turning is reached at either end. Nothing...

I checked my much smaller BX today when using it. When the wheels reach the end of travel, the steering wheel locks and doesn't turn more. Might turn slightly if you held it in position, not sure. This is hydraulic steering. Next time I use the slightly larger B2910, I test that one too...and...

Yes, I got that impression from previous posts. That was why I made my simplistic comment...😉 Perhaps his comment was sarcasm...I did not get that impression though.

Reading your sig, if that's what it's called: "Teaching is the one profession that creates all other professions" I figured you would have shared a link to that explanation! :D

Just an observation, but I get the impression recently you have been coming back and adding to your posts via the edit function, after a fair amount of time has passed. If you have been, this is very confusing to those who have already read the posts. I always thought the edit function was...

curious is this a permanent goodbye or just a short goodbye? In any case goodbye… :)

Being from Pittsburgh, I totally understand. BUT I must point out, your third line is not a question...

No doubt in my mind at all. He must be drinking diesel to get the energy he has been showing us...Beer just wouldn't do it...

Don’t worry, you’ll get used to it! :ROFLMAO: I have a used but good steering cylinder to replace the one on my BX 2200, but I haven’t got around to doing it this year so I’ll probably do it next spring, if I get around to it!😂 Mine has been like that for many years. I’m so used to it now that...

I think your thread title was good. There are costs to getting old. Some relate to health, some relate to losing a bit of strength every year physically while still being in relatively good health, and so on. There are many reasons why as time passes we may not be able to do what we used to do...

I might try the largest bolt I could find that would fit through the holes, and tighten the nut on the end (using large flat washers of course) to hopefully pull them back together. Are they both bent or just one? I’m not sure I like the idea of using a BFH… :)

Wow! I never realized this, although I have realized that the steering wheel will end up at different positions during use, when the tractor is moving in a straight direction. I never really thought about it. I guess I may have thought if the wheels hit the stop, a pressure relief valve would...
