    Lawn tractor leaf bag actually works

    Passing this along as I didn't realize it existed and it's been very helpful. I bought this giant leaf bag that replaces your regular grass bags, to hold leaves. It was under $30 and uses a draw string to wrap around the hood for the rear bagger. It just drags on the ground behind the...

    Err 06 on a 3520

    Thank you for the pictures! It just saved me as a stick or my Dog had pulled the sensor wires out of the connector and I needed to know where each wire went.

    John Deere JS63D mower

    Great info, thanks for the replies! Richard001, the front left wheel hub is completely broken off the wheel, so it's wobble city. It's $35 for a new John Deere wheel. The handle was folded at some point without positioning the cables correctly. It stretched the cables and broke the outer...

    John Deere JS63D mower

    I inherited a John Deere self propelled walk behind mower and I was wondering what the background on this model is. I've searched the web and can't find much on the "D" model with a build date of 060601. It starts and runs fine. It has a 6.5 HP engine and the collection bag is in decent...

    New Tire recommendation

    I put new tires on my 1997 John Deere 345 this summer and I want to recommend them. They are 4 Ply Terra Trac Tires by Kenda K502 23x10.5-12. I bought them on Ebay for a decent price. The tractor had the original Turf Tires on it. I thought they were good enough, and used chains on them in...

    Lotos LT5000D Plasma cutter deal from Amazon

    I ended up returning the Lotos plasma cutter. The torch components didn't seem like they were going to last at all and seemed to be pretty self destructive to it's consumables and internals of the torch head. I tried cutting a total of about 2 feet of 18 gauge metal during the time that I...

    Lotos LT5000D Plasma cutter deal from Amazon

    I ran across a deal for the Lotos LT5000D from Amazon for $244.07 if you buy it from Amazon. Amazon is out of stock right now, but they still let you order it at the lower price. I know that it doesn't have a pilot arc and is obviously cheap. Is this plasma cutter any good for very limited...

    Is there a purpose for hole at the top of the loader arms? It's got a plastic ring in it so I assume it's for something, but I have no idea what.

    Canopy  JD 3320 Canopy and folding the ROPS

    I am thinking about getting the JD canopy for my 3320. I have to fold the ROPS to fit the tractor through my garage door. My question is, can the ROPS still be folded when the canopy is installed, so I can get the tractor into the garage?

    I'm considering the purchase of a 2005 Deere 3320 that appears to be in great shape with about 950 hours on it. It has a 300CX loader on it. Does anyone know of any significant updates that Deere made on newer model year 3320 tractors to fix issues the are on the 2005 model? Are there any...

    How long should a John Deere 345 last

    I have a 1997 John Deere 345 with 410 hours on it and it's still going strong. It has the 18 HP liquid cooled Kawasaki v-twin engine in it. I'm blown away by how reliable it has been. So far, I just put in my third battery. The last battery lasted 8 years. I've also replaced the snow blower...
