I don't like the physics of the auto rear axle housing design. The axle housings are attached to cars or trucks near the out board end, where all the forces are. I see in my minds eye the end of the axle with the spool on it, snapping off the differential housing, when sufficient force is...

smaller (a LOT smaller) version. But Mine.

That is what I use to mow my orchard. the mower an MX10 and is a slewing mower with hydraulic control. Works great especially up against a fence and between apple trees. My MX 10 is also a semi mount and it IS a heavy girl! I run it on the back of a Hesston 100-90 With a semi mount you have to...

I note that no matter how careful, splitting wood always generates a significant amount of slag (small bits of wood and bark). I hate the fact that there be labor in those bits and that I can't use them. I know some guys put them in a wood stove or fire pit right next to where they are...

Ate the bear. The wood shed could be replaced pretty cheaply if'n you can borrow a saw mill. The Fiat -Agri has near 3000 hours on it and is the biggest Ag tractor in town. As to the Farmi, well forgive me for leaving that guy out of the picture.... And this one has been owned and used by no...

Mine were coming on and staying on, so I purchased and installed a new glow plug relay. That did not solve the problem. I removed this (see picture) and the glow plugs indicator light stopped being lit. I googled the part and there is nothing on the internet about it other than NGK makes it...

I rarely ever do this, but I am compelled to this time. I have to take issue with your skidding technique. 1) that log is way too high up on the back of the tractor. If it snags and you are not watching, at a minimum it will give you quite a scare. That high up could easily result in a tip...

I have to replace the brake bands on my big Hesston. I am looking for the parts, but have not had luck yet. I want to have them in hand before I start the tear down. If I cannot find them does anyone here have advice about getting the old bands relined? Looking for all the advice I can get...

I have to do the brake bands on my big Hesston. I am confident I can do this and have the shop and necessary tools. I do want to have the parts in hand before I start the tear down as I don't want the tractor "on the shelf" for too long. I am having trouble finding a source for the bands and...

On the Kubota tractors HAVE to be the worst designed, most useless, annoying piece of engineering about the WHOLE tractor. There......... I do feel better.............:D

Glow plug, relay / timer The glow plug dash light on my 2000 3710 stays on.... goes out for a little bit and than back on again.......... doesn't seem to be hurting the engine operation any, but I want to fix it. Opinions, advice on this? Location of timer and or relay? The tractor is stored...

Same color, look remarkably the same...... Am I the last guy in the world to know "something"???????????????

I need to source parts (loader valve control cables) for an L365 loader that came on a Hesston 100 90 DT. New Holland took over the parts concession for the tractor end of the business, but I cannot determine who owns the loader business. Anyone know? I spent a couple hours surfing the web...

I am specifically looking for what I believe is called rockshaft seals. The oil seals between the casing and the shaft that the lower links pivot on. I was under the impression that new Holland dealers had a cross reference parts catalog for these tractors. the local NH dealer seems to know...
