I was mowing with a lightly used Vicon CM2200 disc mower Friday and it broke the curtain bar almost in half. There is some bracing on the other side of the break but not enough. I like the 3 blade design of the Vicon mower but now I am not sure about the quality. I also have a Kuhn disc mower...

My son put a nice bend in the rails that are used to push the stack of hay away from the bale wagon while unloading. I took them to a welder and he did not think he could get them straight. He recommended that I take them to someone with a cold press. The gentleman with the cold press did not...

I have a NH 640 round baler and today the sledge roller snapped off where it attaches to the sledge. The sledge needs to be replaced. Not sure the damage to the sledge roller. Has anyone seen this before? It looks like the sledge roller could have been rubbing against the sledge and created a...

I have a NH 640 round baler and there is squeaking sound coming from the chain sprocket that is attached to the starter roller. I have looked at the parts diagram and there is a sealed bearing attached to the roller. My question is at what point do you replace the sealed bearings on a round...

I have found a 4WD 1995 JD 870 with a 440 FEL for sale. It has 780hrs on it. It appears to be in good condition but did sit outside so it is faded, has a worn seat and a little rust here and there. He is asking $8000.00 How many hours are people putting on these tractors before anything major...

I have a 2006 JD 5303. I have noticed that when I bush hog and have to put the tractor in reverse to get in tight places the gears usually grind even though I have stopped completely before changing to reverse. Is this related to having a collar shift transmission. It appears to happen only when...

I am thinking about putting a FEL on my JD 5303. I need the loader to have the skid steer quick attach compatibility. The Bush Hog 3545 Loader has this feature where the JD 512 would need the ATI Tach-All plate. I am leaning toward the Bush Hog loader. Has anyone put a BH loader on a 5x03...

I am currently looking at either a 5325 or a 5425. For my needs, the 5325 will work fine but after reading about the problems with the 5325 engines, it makes me lean toward the 5425. I asked my dealer about this and he also said there have been more issues with the 5325 engines. Are there any...

Just got a quote of $16,400 on a new JD 5303(Base Unit). The list price on the JD web site shows $17,381. When I questioned him about the price, he said JD has raised their invoice price so they do not have as much room to discount as in the past. Has anyone got similar results or is this...

I have a Kubota M125X with a LA1601 quick attach loader. Within a 6 month period I have twisted the front end loader mounting plate twice. The first time I was using a Kubota bucket and pushing dirt/limbs. The second time I had a set of pallet forks on the loader. It appears that the front end...

My son was using a Kubota M125X to clear a path through a wind row that contains old stumps, limbs, dirt etc. He was using the front end loader with a bucket on it to push eveything out of the way. The loader uses a skid steer quick attach to hold the bucket onto the front end loader. Some how...
