It's been a while since I posted, but I have an issue with the 955. I put the MMM on the tractor yesterday, moved it to the spot where I set the loader, shut it off to disconnect the loader, and could not get it to start again. The battery is good (I tested it and replaced the corroded cable...

I am a green guy, but I thought those of you with the blues might like this:)

I may have a line on a JD model 47 backhoe, and I need to know if it will fit my 955. I know the #7 is the hoe that matches, but this 47 looks to be close... If I have to invest (within limits) on a modified subframe, that would be OK as well. Any help you folks can give me will be...

I saw this in the paper over the weekend and I am enticed. At $1700, it is less than half the cost of the super-split. Anybody know anybody who has one? SpeeCo Inc. - Log Splitter, Tractor Parts, OEM and Farm Accessory Contact information

Saw one of these for sale here in Michigan. Does anyone have any experience with one of these? The video does not do a good job of showing what they are feeding in. Looks pretty cool...

For the past 3 years I have borrowed a friend's 32 ton Huskee stand alone splitter, so this year I was forced to buy my own. My main concerns with the 3 point models were cycle time and force. I have a 955 with a power beyond kit (Thanks to KennyD on that one) that puts out 7.2 gpm at 2500psi...

Looks to be about $250 shipped with the optional horizontal tube. I can get one elsewhere for less but would have to add treated lumber. You guys know your stuff. Thoughts on this one? OMNI 3 pt point Tool Bed, Carry All, Tool Rack, Flatbed - eBay (item 130407154384 end time Aug-04-10...

We have had horses for about 7 years, and I built stalls in the barn for them. The problem is that in the summer it is their only source of shade, and that leaves us with a security issue in the barn (anyone can enter through the stalls). Well, a couple of weeks ago I purchased a beauty of a...

I was mowing over the weekend with my 955, I went to change the depth of the mower, and the control knob would not turn; it was stuck. It would not turn in either direction. I took the sheet metal off and got a large crescent wrench on the bolt. I was able to turn the bolt the half turn I...

I put new blades on the 72" MMM for my 955 over the weekend. Other than the center blade bolt being stripped, it went OK (I replaced all three bolts and washers. $30 at my dealer):smiley_aafz: Afterwards I put the deck on the tractor, and man, it seems to get harder every time I put it on...

Yesterday I installed a power beyond kit on my 955. It consisted of the installation of a couple lines and a diversion plug. The technical bulletin said to take out the plug and install a smaller, shorter plug in its place. Once installed, it said to loc-tite the old threads. I installed the...
