Hello All I was wondering if anyone has ever used a solar panel to keep their battery charged? Probably means a little more here in Canada with the vehicles outside in the colder temperartures. Have a dual battery setup in my JD 2130 so it is a little bit of a pain to have to move them in and...

Hello All Recently I ordered some parts online from various sources almost all have been great and offer some great savings over buying some parts from John Deere directly, have an older 2130 Unfortunately ran into a place called ssb tractors, fortunately did not drop that much but got a...

Hi All Was wondering what the better method to paint a loader bucket would be. Would really rather not have to have it sandblasted, its a JD so green would be the colour...anyone have suggestions on brand of paint, or primer paint combo? Regards Steve

Hi All Have what might be a stupid question though maybe not, saw a top link for sale on ebay have attached a picture of it. I have just recently bought a John Deere 2130 though it did not have a top link for the 3ph. Prices at JD are 'wow' lots so saw this on ebay, vendor is...

Hello Again Everyone Have determined that I really need to have a loader as part of my arsenal for property maintenance, now that spring has arrived and now have been in the home for a number of months have a better idea of what I want to accomplish over time. I have run across a John Deere...

Hello All Have been wondering what to do without really breaking the bank too much. For a little history, bought a MF 135 with a snow blower attachment last year, and although I didn't have to run it that much, (we ended up not getting that much snow...odd for where I am in Canada), worked...

Hello All I really don't know an awful lot about FEL's but am looking for one for my 68 MF 135 diesel. See every once in a while MF with different makes etc attached to them and came across an add for an International 1501 Loader, that is supposed to fit International B-275, B-414, B-434...

Hello All Would really like to get a generalized manual for my MF 135 that covers just general maintenance, and troubleshooting being new to the diesel world and a while from tractors in general. Have the IT service manual and I am sure its a great reference but not a generalized day to day...

Hello Everyone I got myself a couple of worklights for my Massey Ferguson 135, with the intention of hooking these up to the rear fenders to make it easier to see where I was going when I am removing snow at nights, which on weekdays is always at night. I thought that there would be an...

Hello Everyone Well after searching for several months and some threads on this site for help, thoughts, and opinions between different used options that came up for sale on various John Deere, Ford and Massey Ferguson, I got myself a "new" for me MF 135 with a snow-blower attachment. The snow...

Hi Everyone Was curious on any stories from anyone that owned one of these, thoughts good, bad, or ugly on these tractors

Hello Everyone Wonder what your thoughts might be to buying a JD 950 2wd, year not known. The size, horsepower range for me is fine for what I need to do with it, 3 acre rural home some back fill, snow removal, large garden to plough spring and fall and a gravel driveway to scrape and level...

Hi Still looking around for a 35-50 hp tractor for a rural home in Canada so snow blowing is a given, but also so driveway scraping/maintenance (gravel about 400 feet), garden ploughing every year about 40x40 feet and backfill, levelling, dragging some cut trees now and again. Came across an...

Hi Have had a Ford 8N and 9N tractor but no MF and not familiar with the 3910 other than I think that it pretty much has the same front end as the older N series tractors had. Have attached a couple of photos of one for sale that I might consider, wondering if someone would have some thoughts...

Hi I am looking around to getting an older tractor for property maintenance there are 2 identically priced options that I am considering. Have only had Fords previously, a 9N and an 8N but really would like to have a snow blower option so opting away from the Fords. The first is a 1973 JD 920...
