    Gravel Driveway using Grid products to reduce washout

    Thanks again for all the replies. It sounds like building up and crowing is the right course of action. To 2manyrocks, what you described is my problem, I have been out there in the heavy rain and just as you describe the tire track area on the right becomes a stream.

    Gravel Driveway using Grid products to reduce washout

    In the last picture the fiber is on the right. There is a decent ditch at that point but the water from uphill is moving down the driveway bypassing the ditch. That picture is where the worst of the erosion happens.

    Gravel Driveway using Grid products to reduce washout

    Interesting, it was professionally laid and compacted and was plenty thick to start. That being said I've box bladed it 100 times since then. It did erode first before my first box blading. I wonder if it makes sense to put down some gravel fines to help lock the loose gravel at this point.

    Folks, I'm getting a bit tired of the continuous regrading of my gravel road. I'm wondering if anyone has experience using a product like this: How to Stabilize a Steep Gravel Driveway - TRUEGRID Pavers is this legit or snake oil?

    Thank you for all the replies. Here's a bit more on the tractor...it's a Hydrostatic Transmission, 4wd, has a Front loader and rear hydraulics run. I would consider doing it myself but I'm starting a new day job and I don't know if I can devote the time it would take me. I'll call around and...

    Kubota Parts Pricing out of Control

    My tractor is an older L4310 the tie rod is bent on both sides of the adjusting rod/nut/thing. I found a replacement at Worthington and Reliable for $285. I'll probably go that route. Thanks for listening to me whine.

    Kubota Parts Pricing out of Control

    I know this is old news, but $540 for a tie rod and $80 for a hub oil seal?!? I'm going to have to roll the dice in the aftermarket.
