This is mine coming back from being repainted. Doesn't look like that anymore!...

Does anyone know a source for trailer connectors that fit the round plugs on our tractors? I have an adapter that adapts it to 4-way flat, but I would like one that can be wired however I want (like a 7-way you might buy for a trailer). Any ideas?

I'm setting up my reservoir for my 3pt. hydraulic setup. I bought a 30gal tank. On the top, it has two holes. One of which is for a filter/breather and I recognize it, the other I don't recognize. It is the same type of hole, but 1 3/8" Diameter with three holes 1.5" BC. What goes there...

but I don't know what it was; I've never seen one before. It looked like a mini-excavator body, but no boom - it had a 6-way dozer front blade (that was heavy, not just a push blade) and a backhoe on the rear. Anyone know what it was?

Well, after much planning I have finally finished my TNT for my 5225. I designed my own around two 2 1/2" cylinders. On the longer (2.5x12x1.5) for the toplink, I had to modify it by cutting the swivel ball off of the tube and shimming it out 3/4" so it would clear my top link bracket. I...

Well I finally tried out my mower that I asked about previously in this thread. I had to replace one of the cylinder hoses, but all the other hoses, both pumps and the motor all work great. I had to make a few small parts (the chain bracket and pieces to mount the cable controls to my ROPS...

Tomorrow I begin running through a used Bomford B457 flail mower that I just bought. The flail hammers all look to be in good shape, but I am not sure how sharp they should be, or how much of their original length should be there (when is too worn?). I would assume sharpened similarly to my...

Today I noticed my instrument panel fogged up while I was bushhogging. It's never done this before. I searched here and found lots of stuff about 4000 series, but I looked up the instrument cluster on JD Parts (Part#RE236710)(1B below) and it appears to be a sealed unit ("glass" is not a...
