    4.0 inch to 5.25 speaker upgrade LS/New Holland cab

    @Wibb did you use these adapters to simply space the speaker down away from the headliner? Or did you mount the spacer to the 4" speaker mounting holes, then mount the speaker to the wooden adapter?

    Bobcat Versahandler V723 No Forward / Reverse after hydraulic fluid change

    Oddly, the service manual doesn't mention anything about priming... Here is a pic of my pump arrangement. It looks like a larger pump attached to the bell housing, and possibly a smaller pump attached further out. The large hydraulic lines to the transaxle are attached to the end of the...

    Bobcat Versahandler V723 No Forward / Reverse after hydraulic fluid change

    It was time for a fluid change on my V723. No problem right? Drained the tank, pulled and replaced the filter, refilled with new fluid. Afterwards, the boom functions and steering all work as expected, but it will not drive forward or reverse. Doesn't even attempt to move. It was driving...

    2015 John Deere Ztrak Z950R PTO Will Not Engage

    Found where the electricity was leaking out ;). Had a burned connector where the sub-harness connected to the clutch. Pulled the clutch and measured the resistance on the connector pins directly rather than through the sub-harness and the resistance was 2.0. I replaced the PTO clutch...

    2015 John Deere Ztrak Z950R PTO Will Not Engage

    I have a troublesome Z950R that the PTO will not engage. The code flashed when attempting to engage is 5-6. The problem was originally intermittent and only when warm. Letting the mower sit overnight or for several hours generally resolved the issue for a while. I assumed the pull type...

    John Deere 345 PTO Deck Blades Will Not Engage

    I was actually working with this again this afternoon and found that the RIO switch was engaged even when the forward/reverse pedals were in the neutral positions. Lifting up on the reverse pedal a bit disengaged the RIO switch and I could engage the PTO. I adjusted the switch back slightly and...

    John Deere 345 PTO Deck Blades Will Not Engage

    I have what I believe is a second generation 345, serial 70736. It's new to me. It starts and runs fine but the PTO will not engage. I have the PTO clutch connector disconnected and am not getting power to the blue wire at the PTO connector when I engage the switch. Before engaging, I do...

    John Deere 6400 PowerQuad Early Torsional Damper Removal

    Thanks K5, but that is the flywheel which is still bolted to the crankshaft, behind the damper/absorber/driveshaft I'm trying to remove.

    John Deere 6400 PowerQuad Early Torsional Damper Removal

    Looks that way, but I assure you I am prying on #1 against the flywheel. #4 is in a recess on the flywheel. #1 has a big rubber cushion that has a lot of flex, so it probably doesn't really apply that much force. I tried a slide hammer bolted to the trans side of the flywheel with no success...

    John Deere 6400 PowerQuad Early Torsional Damper Removal

    As do I. I'm prying on #1 since it's the only thing I have access to pry on. I believe 1, 4, & 5 should come off the flywheel as an assembly, then be able to be separated by removing the #3 bolts. The whole assembly should nearly fall of with the bolts removed, but that just isn't my luck on...

    John Deere 6400 PowerQuad Early Torsional Damper Removal

    On a JD 6400 PowerQuad with the early style torsional damper and driveshaft... Anyone have any tricks to removing it? I can't seem to get it to budge. The service manual simple says to remove remove the 4 bolts at the input shaft flange, and 6 bolts on the torsional damper, then remove. Isn't...

    John Deere 6200 No Start, No crank

    Ok, thanks. I'll have to get it scheduled for a visit.

    John Deere 6200 No Start, No crank

    I haven't formed an opinion on this tractor yet. Not sure how it is on fuel, but I suspected it would only sip it. I just bought it in January. It was advertised with 'transmission issues - stuck in gear'. I ended up way deeper into the transmission than I had hoped. It required some new...

    John Deere 6200 No Start, No crank

    Ok, I tried the override and I can raise and lower the hitch. This is an open station tractor with a basic dash, so I don't think I have any way to check trouble codes.

    John Deere 6200 No Start, No crank

    @Zebrafive, thank you so much! If I could give some extra stripes, I would! Diode V105 was in fact dead. I replaced it with a good diode and PTO now engages with the relay and fuses back in place. I think the only thing that isn't working now is there is not action in the 3pt arms. I don't...
