Don't shy away from the bolt on version either. I have tortured the bolt on hooks I purchased from Ken's. With the help of these hooks and some transport chain I have cleared approximately 40 acres of fences, gates, T-Posts, and old telephone poles from the old farm. So nice to have it opened up and I now have a guy lined up to cut the hay off of the fields and all I need to keep up with is the perimeter where his big cab tractor can't get to.

Installed a new replacement well and line today. Had to dig from the foundation out and follow the line in order to locate the well. Home owner had no idea where it was located as nothing stuck up above the ground and no pit could be found.

...found it

Is it common in your area to find a (6"?) well like that completely buried (no pitless)?

Finally broke down and bought one of those semi truck air line spring for my grapple lines. Went to install yesterday and promptly pulled the little stops through the washers…. Hmmm, I’ll fix that. Scrap piece of plate and some metal glue. Much betterer.

No. Not common at all...fortunately. We do see some that are actually in a well pit (older farm houses) but at least you can easily find the well.

The hose saver was a welcome addition here. Between that, and relocating the 3rd function couplings, I don't have to think about them getting kinked.

I was sorta surprised I’ve made it this far without a busted/pinched line. Though, I was well aware while doing any work with it.

A nearby farmer has a shiny M7-151 Kubota in his dooryard. Set of 16 (?) foot discs behind it.

The family has used good older (60-80’s) tractors for years.

Sold cows years ago, older generations passed away.

They continued with some crops. He does a good job of it, and has a pretty good string of beef as well..

Seen it many times, unfortunately.🥺

Don’t know first thing about an M7-151, but it looked small…..wondering if it could really pull that set of discs.

Just too light to pull much? Looked tiny to me.

Among others, I think they have a Case 630 or 730. Would count on them first. Just a lot bigger and heavier.

D2Cat has a great 630. He’d know better.

Not disparaging anyone. The farmer may not own the tractor. He may have have leased the property to someone else.

If he does own the tractor, he is a prudent business person, and has run a farm for decades.

Just surprised me how little the tractor looked.

I put the last 3 pilings in for my dock.
There was a pretty good storm last night just E of me. The kind that builds up & just sits there. It’s hard to know what to wish for, rain, or get the work done, then rain. OR, some rain, but not to much😆.

We had a well at our last house that was totally under ground. Had an idea where it was, but didn't know for sure. All new wells around here have to have casings that are at least at foot above ground.

I drove an M6-141 a few feet a couple of years ago. That thing seemed like a beast at the time. Too bad you don't have a photo of the M7 with the discs ... that'd be cool to see.
