I just bought a used grasshopper 722dt6 with a 3 cylinder diesel. Engine only has 350 hrs. The first two times I cut my yard she performed flawless. Yesterday while cutting the mower would slow down while going up hills to the point of almost dying. (Motor would slow down) I called grasshopper...

So when it rains it pours. Just got my tractor back from repair and now the mini ex has a problem. This just started about two weeks ago, if I started my Ex with the ac on it would blow the 10amp fuse, so I would turn off the ac every time I killed the excavator. Now it's gotten to the point...

I've been helping flooded neighbors bring debris to the road with my kubota mx5100 tractor when I had a seal break causing a major leak. I had to drop off my tractor at the dealer and won't get it back for at least 5 weeks. With so much work still needing to be done I changed the hydraulic...

Friday I was helping a neighbor remove debris from his yard after the flooding we've had. I stopped to take a break and noticed oil dripping.... Almost pouring from under the tractor. After getting under the tractor I see that it's hydraulic oil coming from a tube that runs from the front axle...

I loaned my 763 to a friend to do some dirt work, when I got it back I put my grapple on it to move some logs. Now The grapple won't stay up. If I open it it slams down with tremendous force. Any idea where to look to fix this problem, or am I missing something simple? Thanks for the help

Do I really need one, no but I definitely want one. Mini ex that is. Live been looking at Craig's list, ebay, and everywhere else locally and on the net for 2 years and haven't found the right one in the price range and condition I'm willing to pay for. I had thought I wanted a machine in the...

So I don't like using the iPhone tbn app, just feel more comfortable using the standard version. With that said I really hate the way the tbn site ask every time I open a page to get the app. Why not ask once and leave it at that. If I didn't want it on the home page and I didn't want it on the...

While taking my Kid to school this morning we came across this. The strap is pretty bad but it's also a light duty trailer, with 3500 lb axles. They were driving 65 to 70 down a 4 lane hwy in rush hr traffic.

Tug, Here are the pics. Thanks again for any help Brian

I'm buying 3 acres of land to build a new house and the lot has LOTS of trees. I want to keep the "wooded" look but need to clear an area for the house and driveway. i also want to clear a river bank that has trees that are growing sideways out of the bank. My question is the local rental will...

I had a rifle stolen back in 2002, was told by the cop that took the case that i would never see the gun again. He told me it was probably in mexico or Florida. Told me that it would change hands 10 times in a month. Well my friends, i got a call today form a detective that they had...

So i'm looking for a career change,(more like simi retirement) and have thought about hauling dirt and gravel for years. I think i'm ready to take the plunge but don't know a lot dump trucks. Thinking i want to start out small, 26k gvw or less (have my eye on a 99 ford with F650 w/10' 8yard...

So I'm in the market to buy a new ztr. Dealer told me i could jump up to a 60" over the 52" for just $100 more. It Will also get me an extra 2hp. The $100 isn't a big deal when your buying a mower but do i really want such a wide mower. I only cut 2 lots one 2 acre and a 1.5 acre lot. How...
