Guys, my LS4041 has an electrical connector behind the seat. I assume this is for trailer lights and possible breaks. Can someone point me to the name of that connector and does anyone has a pin-out? I like to see if it is possible to power a small electrical pump for a sprayer from this...

Is this the right fluid - Traveller® Universal Tractor Trans/Hydraulic Fluid?

Happy New Year Everyone - a few hours into the new year and already a new project! Our house will be finished around February and I need to figure out a good way to fence the perimeter so that I keep the horses out and the dogs in. We currently have the front property fenced with the three-rail...

I had all my stuff in a 20ft shipping container. This worked very well and its secure. I paid $1350 for the container including delivery and you can't build a secure shed for that money. Now I have a metal building with security and cameras.

Tractor was working hard to get the stumps on the burn pile and then I cut some more wood. Notice that I have finally my garage up! The whole thing is finally coming together.

The insulation helps a lot. Its been 100+ today here in Houston and inside the building we had nice breeze and did not feel hot at all. We finished the doors today! This thing went up in 3 days and then I took over with the doors. Here is a shot at my son tightening up the stopper. In the...

Been there - done that! I had a Yanmar 2210, 2WD, and got stuck multiple times. My wife called the Yanmar "his little weeny", and she constantly made fun of me when I got stuck. She said from the beginning to get a bigger tractor but as a good husband I did not listen and wanted to save some...

...took delivery of a 4041 today. She really looks happy right now, doesn't she? Upgrading from a Yanmar 2210 - our "Bonzai" - we call the LS our "Blue Whale" because of the shear size of it. Let the projects begin! We made plans for Saturday and I hope it rains so we can test the 4x4!

L I N K All, I am about to trade in my Yanmar 2210 with Koyker 80 FEL for the above linked tractor. I am quite impressed by the numbers and the price but its hard to find consumer reviews for this tractor company. Anyone out there with LS tractors? Thoughts? Comments? regards heitjer

Guys, please provide some guidance. I am about to sign for delivery of my metal building. It will be 40 x 44 x 17, metal frame and 26 gauge metal. Walls are rustic red, roof is white. One bay will be framed in for a workshop, rest room and kitchen. This will be standard wood framing and I will...

Greetings - this spring we will be doing some serious fencing. I need about 3000 ft of horse fence to get all my pastures done. The front of the property has the nice vinyl fence but I am not doing this in the back. I am looking for suggestions that are more cost effective. I am thinking...

I have a series of 5 gal plastic canisters. Unfortunately the sprouts are leaking and some of the black caps that hold the sprouts are broken at the top where they secure the sprouts. I refuse to buy a replacement sprout and cap for $8.00+S&H when I can buy the whole canister on sale at...

All, I like to see what kind of regulations are across the country for ponds and if they are considered "impervious" area with regards to drainage regulations. Here is some background on the question: In November last year the City of Houston voted for a drainage fee of 0.032 $/sqft (or 0.026...

... what do you think? 1) I based my price on my investigation of getting quotes for the single items by contracting all out and pursue permits by myself. Metal building frame with metal sheeting, no fancy extras (~16,000), 4" slab reinforced and geo-technical documents (~11,000), three roll...

Hello All, I installed a 65 gal water tank at my property to water some shrubs & plants automatically. I purchased a battery operated timer but just found out that this does not work on such low pressure. I did some research but only found this system in Australia that works on low pressure. I...
