I registered with classmates.com a couple years ago, never sent them any money, just gave my name, school, years & e-mail address. Now I got an e-mail saying some of my former classmates wanted to look at my profile, so I should fill it out. I got this questionair that started outsimple...

So all my neighbors say they never hit any rocks while drilling fence holes, I hit a bunch and bent one of the tips on the 12" auger. I straightened it, but now the metal is weak and bends easily. Any one know how to put some temper back in the metal? I thought about heating it and quenching...

A friend of mine has had a couple of blowouts on her 8 horse trailer lately, we're trying to figure out why. One thing I noticed is that the tires on the trailer are heavy duty truck tires, 235x16 radials. Any experience with trailer tires? Should this type of trailer use tires specifically...

Probably another (sub)urban legend, but funny just the same: The following is a genuine hoot. This was an actual letter sent to Ryan De Vries from The Michigan Department of Environmental Quality, State of Michigan. Wait till you read this guy's response - but read the entire letter before...

I'll be doing the first service (50 hours)on my 4200 gear drive this weekend. Besides the oil & filter, lube, clean rockshaft filter and the normal inspections is there anything else I should be looking for? Thanks, Bud

Hi to all, I just turned 10 hours on the JD 4200, just had to say all is going well. The only incident is getting stuck in the wet area below the pond dam while mowing (hey-this thing is 4WD!!!) Luckily my neighbor Jerry came home shortly after and kindly pulled me out. The only damage...

I'm pretty new, so here's my first dumb question. I took the 3ph mower off my JD 4200. No problem till I tried to hook it back up. Is there an easy way to align the splines on the pto to the shaft? I ended up raising the deck and turning the blades by hand (with the key in my pocket!) - not...

Getting ready to start a pole barn but not a level site on my land so the barn will be build on a "cut & fill" site. the fill part will be 2 - 3 feet deep. Can the poles be set in the fill or should they be set in virgin soil. If not, will concrete piers work? The barn will be 24 X 36, 10'...

Hi to all, I'm new to the site and to the tractor world. My dealer delivered my new JD 4200 4WD gear on Friday, of course it rained all weekend so I didn't get a chance to use it. I bought a 5' Frontier finish mower with it, a friend also bought a 4200 at the same time and we are sharing a fel...
