    Best smoke tube

    MLF, thanks for your post. They are a great tool for producing smoke. My smoke tube can expand from 7" (2-hour smoke) to 12" (4-hour smoke) or anywhere in between. It's oval in shape so it won't roll out of place and eliminates misalignment of the smoke holes when resizing.

    Best smoke tube

    The "A-MAZE-N" adjustable two to four hour smoke tube made out of food grade stainless steel. Bought it at Lowe's a couple of years ago item# 1422136, $24.98, still available. Fill it with any of the fruit wood pellets, my blend is 75% apple and 25% cherry when I smoke cheese. Light the open...

    Slack/play in the TC40S/16LA loader bucket settings

    O.K. again. Setting the 16LA bucket in any bucket position it will wobble up down/vacillate as to not hold a true/steady locked in directed joystick bucket position. Rebuild cylinders or bearings/bushings? WTHA?

    Slack/play in the TC40S/16LA loader bucket settings

    No quick attach connection and no leaks throughout the entire hydraulic hose system/no leaking to see.

    Slack/play in the TC40S/16LA loader bucket settings

    Exactly-play in the pins or cylinders with no external fluid leakage. Which might it be?

    Slack/play in the TC40S/16LA loader bucket settings

    2002 TC40S (standard) 16LA 6' loader bucket When attempting to pick up a small load of dirt on flat ground and setting the bucket in the proper scoop position, the bucket won't hold the set position as it wobbles a bit about the set position. Me off the tractor and gripping the bucket with all...

    2002 TC40S 12X12 four speed lever on the dash, heavy shifter resistance when attempting to shift gears

    "S" for standard 12X12 transmission. Problem is that the four-speed right dash mounted shift lever, first, second, third and fourth gear changes are VERY stiff, scary stiff so I generally leave it in one gear position and deal with it. A couple of years ago I had the shuttle shift forward and...

    TC40 w/one set of RRs and Woods backhoe

    Still not understanding the power beyond block/port you're looking for so I will bow out of this search. My Woods BH90-X backhoe hydraulic hoses (2) connect directly to one set of hydraulic spools at the back of my TC40S.

    TC40 w/one set of RRs and Woods backhoe

    What vale/valve? Woods or New Holland valve block? Please elaborate further as I do have the furnished Woods manual and possibly the NH instructions but come on-it's been eleven years since I started this thread and I can't even remember what I had for breakfast yesterday!

    New Holland TC45D opinions?

    Total keyboard typo on my behalf-the "S" key is next to the "A" key. My TC40 is definitely an "S" as in the standard model.
