Just in case anyone else finds this thread while searching... according to the SDS it's basically just methanol and water, with a density of 0.93 L/Kg (vs 1 for pure water, or 1.28 for rimguard) https://agri-lim.com/en/sds/

(not sure if this would be better off in the 'tires' forum? but anyways...) Anyone ever used these? double ring* tire chains for farm tractors I'm considering them or duo-grips, which are basically the same price for my 16.9-30's DUO-Grip tire chains for farm tractors My biggest concern is the...

Hi, Since the weather is so nice today I planned on getting the cultivator out to clean up the ruts i made from bringing hay out to the horses all winter (since the ground never froze! i've never seen that happen around here :confused: ) Anyways, I went to start the tractor and the battery...

Hi all, First off, just like to say that I'm glad i found this site, tons of usefull info! :) Anyways, I seem to have gotten myself into a much bigger project than I anticipated... When we moved into our house 4 years ago, there was a baler out in the field under a (very shredded) tarp, which I...
