Not been a good day for me. About two months ago, I bought an old Case 580c. The plan was to excavate a hill to build a shop, do a few odd little jobs and resell it. I've been piddling around with it in my free time, and have had a lot of fun. I've excavated about 250 yards, and the project...

i have been trolling my local craig's list for the last few months, tentatively looking for a roll away tool cabinet. i've seen lots of snap on, matco and mac for $2k or better. i don't make my living turning wrenches, and those were just a little bit out of my price range. anyone, i managed...

I recently put a FEL on my little Branson tractor. The tractor weighs 3700 lbs, and the loader (a newly redesigned OEM model) has a lift capacity of about 2k. I can stick the bucket in a pile of dirt, and lift the back wheels, even with a 500 lb finish mower hanging on the back. My solution...

I recently installed a loader on my tractor. I have been pleased with it...can't believe I lived so long with out it! :o http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/zetor-century-branson/176623-new-loader-trip-branson.html anyway, i was reading my manual last night, and came across the following text...

I picked up my new loader yesterday...a BL25S. I understand that this is going to be the standard loader on all small and medium frame tractors now. I put it on my 2910, but saw another on a 3820 while at Branson yesterday. It comes standard with a 66" QD skidsteer bucket. Specs are pretty...

finally bit the bullet, and bought a loader. i was able to pick it up at branson in north ga, and am in the process of installing it myself. by picking it up/doing a self install, i saved about $800. anyway, i the the complete subframe mounted, the valve plumbed, and the return line...

If there are any dealers on board, I need to talk to them about a FEL for my 2005 2910 and some small parts as well. my local guy is a ******, and not able to give me a straight answer on anything. please drop me a PM. -matt

i purchased a 2005 2910 about 3 years ago, and it has been a great tractor. i use it mostly for mowing, grading and tilling. the one thing i have kicked myself about nearly since the time i bought it was the lack of a fel. i have a lot of jobs that i think, "gosh it would be a lot simpler to...

if we have a branson dealer on board that will actually sell me a few oil filters for my 2910, please drop my a line. i've tried (called) the local guy twice (40 miles away) and for whatever reason he can't seem to process my order. the next closest person is 150 miles away in another state...

Posted this in the hydraulics forum, but thought i would ask here too. I need some advice/knowledge on hydraulics systems. I have been looking to add a front end loader to my little tractor (Branson 2910). I was quoted almost $4K (ouch) by the local bush hog dealer for one that would fit my...
