Hi all My L2250 has a couple of small leaks in the front axle seal and swivel hub area. On remobing the dipstick to check the diff oil level, there was a load "whoosh" of air so I assuming the diff is not breathing. I can't find a breather on the diff housing at all. Could the diff breathe...

Wow what a blast browsing through the TBN site. Nearly 500,000 posts and what? - 13,000 + members. Sure has changed since I used to frequent this place. I still see some names that I recognise but it looks like many come and go over the years as I have done All is going well over here. My...

Kubota Won\'t Start? My L185 always starts no worries. If battery goes a bit flat, it at least turns over to let me know it needs charging. Well it is has been a month or so and this time I go to start, I get dash lights, headlights etc. but no click, no turning over, nothing. Battery...

Well I have been spending very little time on TBN lately, and when I do, the sheer number of posts scares me Just on tonight for a quick look and I see that our elder statesman (I know I have called him that before so I am sure he won't mind ) BIRD is nearing post number 10,000. This is an...

Mate of mine up north was having a snooze on Saturday afternoon and was woken when an old Massey Ferguson complete with slasher drove through the window of his bedroom !! Tractor was stopped by the concrete block wall of the house but only after it pushed the window in and sprayed the room with...

Haven't heard from him for a while. Maybe the weather has been so good he can't stop playing golf Or maybe he finally bought that tractor and can't get off it !! The thing that scares me with the anonomous nature of TBN is that if god forbid something should happen to one of our regulars...

Recall reading about this a while back but my searching has drawn a blank..... Been noticing a large green patch in the front yard but had put it down to run-off from a dripper irrigated garden. Well we have had 10" of rain and the rest of the yard has dried out but this areas is now a BOG ...

Hi all My dam here is a small one. When we moved in I am sure the water was a nice deep green type colour. Looked nice. After we had some excavtion works done around the dam, it was then all brown next time it filled up. Light brown like rivers in flood colour. The next time it filled it was...

Brains trust................ Am searching for a hand-held GPS unit for use in aircraft. I don't own the plane/s hence the need for a handheld with eventually some form of mounting device. There are very limited types (over here) of aviation specific handheld GPS and have narrowed the search...

Hi all. I have made a point of changing the oil & filter in my tractor once a year. However in the last year I might have only done 5 hours tops due to the dry conditionins (Has been 11 months since I used the slasher and it still doesn't need doing again) So should I be slack and do nothing...

Hey we have just had our annual V8 Supercar (Touring Car) race at Mount Panorama at Bathurst. It is one of the premier touring car races in the world and I understand it is broadcast all over the world. Did any of you guys watch it? Cheers

Hello all. I have an L185 2 wheel drive with no FEL. Using the slasher and back blade gives me the jitters as the front wheels come off the ground all the time. I am planning to add some weight to the front (can't weld so will have to put some thought into it to tell someone else how to do...

Hello all. Had my dam (pond to you yanks) cleaned out last week. It was almost empty and was full of sloppy silt. I now have tonnes of the stuff lying around and as the ground around here is so crappy, I wonder if I can use this for garden beds. The local council gave me truckloads of soil...
