seems the tie rod on the left side of my 4510 may be worn out. I cant seem to get the castle nut off to replace. There is no way to hold the tie rod end while trying to loosen the nut. Previous ones ive done have had a hex key on the end of the threaded portion but these do not. Any tricks...

I cant seem to find the trailer Im looking for. Id like a 5x10 with a load rating of 6-7000 lbs. The only ones I found in that load size are dump trailers which are out of my price range. The ones that are 5x10 are only good for 2000lbs. I got a quote for some C5x9 steel from my local...

I picked up a Hyundai 130lc-3 that may need some undercarriage work. Seems that the shoes are in great shape very little wear. However, the sprockets are near the end of their life and the chain spacers dont look too good either. Chains themselves look ok. Can the spacers be changed without...

Im looking to buy a used excavator to finish some yard work. I had my 50 acres selectivly cut (pine and hemlock) last year and Id like to pull the stumps and clean up the slash. One area will be turned into a field, one area cleaned up for apple trees and the major project of building my MX...

Anyone know if there is a replacement part number to the power beyond kit (LVB25098) for the xx10 series tractors? Id like to add a backhoe (probably 48 series) to my tractor. JDparts shows that the kit is no longer available.

Finally gonna break down and get a lawn mower. While searching for older style (300, 400) JD tractors, I came across a 2006 27 hp Bad Bow zero turn. Its got a 60" deck with a bagger and its within my budget ($3500). Its got 500 hours on it. The Deeres I was looking at were all tractor type...

Finally got my electrical work done for my solenoid valve. Just need to neaten up the wiring and figure some way to mount my switch besides using zipties. So, I fire up the tractor and after quickly finding some loose fittings my bucket curl doesnt work. I can hear the solenoids switching. I...

Anyone know what type of thread is on the JD hydraulic quick connects? Apparently, its not the type that I bought all my fittings.

99 445, do they have the plastic or steal cam gear? ANything to look for on a used one with 800 hrs?

Im looking to get a mower, finally. I need at least a 48" cut, bigger would be nice. Also, must have a power flow type bagger. We looked at a 99 345 with 500 hrs. Was in nice shape but it didnt have a bagger. Price was $3000. The misses didnt like driving around (this was the first one and...

Anyone know where to get them? Tractor supply seems to only have 1/2". I cant seem to find any at surpluscenter.

Looking for recommendations on replacing the 3/8 7x19 winch line on my FIW winch.

Anyone ever straighten the cylinder piston? Ive bent my power steering piston on my 4510. Been like that for some time but I would like to fix it. Its bent enough to leak fluid very slowly. New piston from Deere is about $500. Or, is the shaft perhaps replacable?

Stopped by the local kubota dealer in Tilton NH to search out box blade pricing. This was actually the wifes idea since Ive been looking for a used one for over two years now with no luck. Got prices of 1150 and 1099 for a woods GB72 and landpride 2572. I almost just picked one up, since this...

Im looking for an estimate or recommendations on transporting an 18,000 lb excavator from Pittsfield MA to Canterbury NH. Its roughly 160 miles one way.
