    47" Snow Blower from an X series mount to a 4110

    I have located a good condition 47 snow blower from an X series tractor. I want to retrofit it to my 4110. I am aware there are several different mounts for this snow blower. Anyone have the width of the quick mount or the length of the long drive shaft ? I have a small fabrication shop and...

    Poor man's side by side

    I purchased this 95 YJ for 600 dollars with a bad transmission. Sold the engine and bought a rebuilt 6 cylinder with transmission for four hundred difference. Took the body off the frame. Made new motor mounts ( 4 to 6 cyl ) and repaired the rear spring hangers on the frame. The six cylinder...

    Tractor cab ... any helpful hints ?

    Took some time today to build the cab sides. Once I get a plan in my head and find a measuring device the project gets underway. I added space behind the seat extending past the rear fenders. The windshield is going to be tipped out a bit. No special reason comes to mind but I thought it...

    Tractor cab ... any helpful hints ?

    Long ( did I say long ? ) cold winter ahead in the mid west. Next tractor project will be a cab for a 4110 John Deere. Read a couple build threads and want to pick out the best details in place of my usual trial and error methods. In depth details like wiring, heater examples, fresh air...

    Air suspension seats

    Looking for a better seat for the 4110 Deere. Anyone change out or modify the existing seat to make it more comfortable ? This is one feature I would like to improve and make seat time more enjoyable.

    3520 Price

    Hit up the local dealer for a price on a cabbed 3520. Not many options ( mid pro, turfs, hydro, 1 rear hydraulic port ) to speak of. Only 13% off full list. Incidently list was five hundred more than the build it yourself price on the JD site which is probably shipping. I have viewed posts...

    Windmill tower

    I bought a pile of old windmill parts with a pump, some fan blades, bent tower supports and spent a day sorting and checking what was usable. To my surprise the pump dates back to 1901 with its cast iron case survived the fall from a forty foot tower when taken down, or I should say crash...

    Backhoe Bucket Modification

    Bought a new left over 24" bucket for the 611 Bradco. I know I said I was going to build one but I stumbled over this example at the steel yard for one fifty out the door. Per my luck it doesn't fit my boom width so off with the attachment ears and on with some new ones. For a small bucket is...

    John Deere 4110 Service

    Another go around with the hydraulic oil and filter. @ Near twenty dollars a gallon I hope there is magic in the Hy - Gard transmission oil. I guess if it moves things correctly it is a must. The trouble is justifying a $35.25 filter Kind of grinds on my assumption of '' being held up...

    Newer mid mounter mowers..... smaller guide wheels ?

    I have noticed the newer mowers have small plastic rollers in place of the old style larger wheels. Do they serve a better purpose or was it a cost savings move ? To me it just looks like the smaller variety would dig into the ground easier although they are wider. Would like to see the decks...

    Windmill tower

    I have a 8' fan and pump from a windmill that was taken down years back. I straightened the fan blades and filled the oil galley with automatic transmission fluid. I have it on a 9' stand temporarily just to see if it would require additional work / repairs. It has been turning for two years...

    LS.. Still going in production ?

    I bought a NH TC 55 with HSS and could not ask for a better fit. New Holland or its conglomerate shifted production to Korea while changing the model numbers and designation. I asked several sources and no straight answers were returned. Did they keep the shibera engine ? Did the manufacture...
