    Review: Woodmaxx MX9900 Chipper

    Last fall, I went through hours and hours and hours of research and conversations with folks here before buying my first tractor and set of attachments. I am going to post a few reviews so that others can benefit from what I have learned. One of the biggest purchases that I made, and the one...

    Winch: Hydraulic vs. PTO?

    I want to install a winch on my MX6000, to be used primarily for skidding logs. I have remote hydraulics in both the front and the rear - the front circuit, which is rated at 9.5 gpm at 2560 PSI seems plenty powerful enough to drive a fairly big hydraulic winch (certainly something in the 15,000...

    2" tow receiver for MX series?

    There seem to be a number of folks who make 2" towing receivers designed to bolt directly onto BX series tractors, either front or rear. Does anyone know of a similar product that will fit an MX? Or any other way, short of a 3 point hitch receiver, to easily mount a 2" ball on an MX either...

    Paint for bare steel homebrew attachments?

    Did a quick search, didn't see anything. I am looking for recommendations for a paint or coating product to use on a bare steel attachment that I have just finished welding up (log arch).

    Rubber, meet road... (which attachments to buy??)

    Putting in my order tomorrow morning for an MX6000. Having waited two months since they stopped making MX5800's, I am very eager ;) I think I am clear on the attachments that I need, but not at all clear on whose version of each to buy. So I would love any thoughts or feedback or pointers to...

    MX5800 being replaced by MX6000?

    Anyone else hearing rumors that production of the MX5800 (and maybe other MX tractors) has stopped, because it is being replaced by a new model?

    So confused ;) L4701 vs. MX5800 vs. M5660

    Shopping for my first tractor. Have decided on Orange. Am horribly confused by the product line - and would hugely appreciate help/thoughts/advice. Property is a 40 acre fairly hilly parcel. Work will mostly be non-ag - tree stumps, ponds, light grading, trenching and drains, brush hog...
