I have a blade with sides - basically a nice blade with improved dirt-moving ability - used for some minor re-grading around a property we're developing. And I don't have any driveways, etc, that would really help me justify the functionality of a full box. That said - I hadn't thought of...

Looking to buy a subsoiler w/ pipe-laying attachment. I will only use it very lightly, and don't need to go deep - so was planning on buying from AgriSupply PIPELAYER F/ASC 73410A + 3PT SUBSOILER RIPPER 1 totaling ~$325. They want $450 to ship it to a major metro in Idaho?? (I would pick it...

Ok, looks like no feedback against non-moly lithium (Red-N-Tacky), so put in an order for that. Should have about a years supply now :) To tl;dr for any future readers, this is what I'm using going forward: 3% moly lithium-complex (Deere TY6333) for: Slow + Sliding (bushings in loader pins...

based on Project Farm's results, I suppose I should also consider a high-quality lithium-complex NON-moly grease for the high-speed applications (such as Lucas Red "N" Tacky he reviewed very positively) Side benefit is that I couldn't mess anything up if I used the wrong gun (since both are...

Small TLB here with a few implements that have bearings such as a pto snowblower, pto chipper. I've just used the same grease all around until now - but it's been nagging me and I doubt my lithium/moly grease correct for the "fast" or "spinning" interfaces. For the loader, BH, grapple, etc -...

I have the kioti 2475 - could you confirm the pin spacing & size on your 2485? See pics over at Backhoe - Kioti Backhoe Bucket, but the key specs are: 1 inch pins bucket ears have two pins - but the offset between those pins is not critical, since the 2nd pin is on a swingarm. ears on bucket...

I normally wouldn't resurrect a 15yo thread, but dusty's done that for me :) I am looking for the same - a narrow trenching bucket for my kb2475l (ck2610 hse tractor). Can anyone with the NH, LS etc confirm theirs against the Kioti? here's the spec's of the kioti bucket: 1" pins ~136mm /...

Looking to make a cover for my sawmill and a few other less-weatherproof tools** which at least for a the next several years will be stored outside. I've tried tarps, but: with the relatively harsh & consistent sun we get they degrade faster than i'd like because they are fully waterproof (not...

Thanks for the clarification. FWIW i haven't found as clear of terminology in the "mobile" world, vs the "industrial" community [definitely standard names, btw]. I'm sure it exists, maybe it's just more-specialized/smaller user group (of folks actually engineering things that is). Which would...

Read the definition i linked. As best i can tell, there is no name in common use w.r.t. the semantics of flow i'm talking about. Farmerford provided workable definitions that will save a whole lot of hot air.

Yep, have power beyond. But the valves on my tractor, like virtually all smaller TLB's, are "tandem valved -VS- series"**, so i can't use my full meager flow simultaneously. I only expect to use it as such when the tools are ~unloaded (no magic here) ... but that use, like when "repositioning"...

agreed on the noise. That said, there aren't that many operations in an TLB that will trigger this any more than momentarily when something reaches end of travel. And once you get used to a machine, that's not happening a ton.

Prince got back to me, RV series with 1/2 inch ports (the smallest option) will have negligeable pressure drop. ~1/2 PSI at my 7gpm.

talked to a Prince FE; they're going to get back to me on the actual pressure across (Pin --> Pout), but they did note that the RV line ("differential poppet inline relief") is the exact same cartridge style that is used in Prince FEL valves. So that adds a fair amount of confidence as that's...

I agree with this; there is also the issue of air that would start in the system if not bled. Which means we're all on the same page that it's not just the cylinders here - other parts of the system esp valves are possible points to introduce air. From what I've read online it's really not...
