Great soundtrack Eric, good job!

Someone said it earlier - new tires on the front, old on the rear as you have the redundancy of load carrying from five other tires. If one goes, replace them all then. Michelins on front of my 3500 Ram dually, one blew, $11k damage to truck. Was not old or worn to tread bars, ‘it just blew.’...

Husky 592XP, 7.6hp. I don’t touch any of my other saws now that I have this. Stihl yellow chain, 28” bar. Cuts like a laser, amazingly fast.

File One of these for sale near me. 1971 K10 4x4, 350, 4spd. White roof, hunter green body, looks to be rust free. Nice faded patina. Not a real step-side short bed though; those are rare in K10s. Was 8’ standard bed, cut down. Great looking truck, $20k asking price. As cool and basic as it gets.

I have a JD310 backhoe, the real deal. Waited until I really needed one, and use it extensively on the farm. I don’t have much spare time so I like to get projects done ASAP. That would be one of the last pieces of equipment to go if I were to sell things. I think people don’t use smaller...

Non toxic?

4570, It works on pins too, just have to keep up with it and grease on schedule. I have an organic farm and try to keep tractors tight and dry. Milwaukee M18 grease gun makes quick work of greasing.

There is only one grease to use if you farm or care about your land - Deere Corn Head water-based grease. Not as harmful to your environment and no clumps of petroleum grease killing everything it touches; you just have to grease things regularly!

Ray, I have the Duratorque in the 38s which have the equal length lugs. I do have Dynatorques on my 4610, and I do notice the choppy ride. The 8240 is mostly for looks, and the Genesis 456 engine (7.5l). It will get worked, but we’ll see.

Well, I kept the Goodyears and will cut them off. I removed some in a section and the area looks good from 15 feet away. The tractor will be used for pulling and parades, hence wanting it to look good. I really wanted the Made in USA Goodyears because that is what looks best on a Ford tractor...

Oh yeah, BTW, read up on the Bosch CP4 diesel fuel pump class action lawsuit. Stay away from a truck with the CP4 pump, which are all the late model diesel pickups. Earlier Dodge’s had the good CP3 pump that didn’t shred itself and ruin your fuel system and potentially engine. Later Dodges have...

Try to find a good pre-‘18 Dodge with the Cummins and you can tune it unless VA (I suspect) has smog inspection. Fords today are laden with problems. They have the highest amount of issues, and I know this because I belong to two Ford truck web communities. A pre-‘18 Dodge can be tuned for 20+...

Hi Yaney, No, I have not figured it out. I think the best source of info on how to do it will come from the fellow that owns Earth Machines company. I thought I heard him mention something about this in a video, but searched his site and couldn’t find it. BTW, he has some good info in...

Leonz, Thanks for the feedback. I looked at the Firestone Evo, and a pic online shows them smooth. Upon further research, and finding a real picture of the tire, it too looked like it had the mold hairs on there. The Goodyears are what I want, so I will hold for a day or two and do some...

Hello, I’m looking for new 18.4r38 R1 tires for my Ford 8240 tractor for parades. I bought Goodyear Duratorque in that size, had them shipped in, only to discover that the sidewalks are covered in those little rubber “hairs” from the mold. They look awful and are going back. I looked at the...
