    Better Oil Filter for my eMax22

    When I performed the 50 hour oil and filter change on my tractor last Spring the first realization was that the factory put the filter on really tight. My second realization was that there is no working room around the filter. There was no way to use the usual filter wrench with a handle for...

    Seeking 3 point rear blade advice

    My Ford disc needed a new coat of paint. I bought it new about 30 or so years ago after going to a few farm sales and seeing discs in dubious condition selling for nearly new price. My Ford 5 ft. rotary cutter, probably made in the late 60's heavy built to start with, mended with a generous...

    Greetings from Missouri

    I joined this forum yesterday, my wife and I live on 5 wooded acres in rural West central Missouri. I have owned a Ferguson TO35 since 1980, which I use to plow and disc my garden, bush hog the brush when it needs it, and occasional dirt and snow blading work. Quite often, I bring in a load...
