No pictures, but I finally BROKE my tractor!! Yesterday I spent the day in the woods doing some clearing for a food plot. Made a ton of headway, and was just about ready to go to the house for dinner when i saw one more tree I could get pushed over. As I was backing up, I managed to catch the hydraulic quick disconnect bracket on a bigger tree and not notice until I had fluid spraying everywhere!!! Ended up breaking the two bolts that hold the bracket on the loader and bending the bulkhead fitting enough to crack it right at the QD. Luckily, it was on the bucket side not the loader side so I was able to get the tractor to the house for the repair. Quick trip to the tractor store, and Ill be back in business tonight.


No photos? So it never happened? Jk

Even after the fix, can you show a picture of what was broke? Just curious as I like to learn from others

Tractors are good for all sorts of things. Here are some shots of a barn door install - made the 11' x 9.5' three hundred pound door in the driveway and used the tractor and forks to transport it and lift it into place. It worked out great. Now to build and install 2 more.....

I dug two ditches one for water and the other for electric. Then I bush hogged on my little B7200. image-3864677927.jpg image-3685239543.jpg

Ha! Excellent responses!
Too bad the market sucks. I blame NAFTA and genetically modified rock products.

With commercially avaliable cast blocks to build retaining walls, few true stone walls are built any more...
