Looks like getting the hose off will be a challenge. Almost no room where they are routed :(

I added two more photos...

Whelp... I ran over a large rock by mistake and broke off one of the hoses for the steering cylinder. I am hoping I can just go get a new host and fitting (NAPA)? I attached a picture for the wiser minds to look at. Thanks.

Looking at Brotek… 1.4” or 2.0”. Nothing for the front wheels initially. Is there an optimum size choice here? I do not run a MMM.

Flew back from California the night before, got up early and did six driveways in the neighborhood. This Virginia storm was perfect snow and little to no sleet/ice where I am at. I strapped four suitcase weights to my rear blade and attached PVC to the loader edge. The tractor impressed as it...

I have two that I have owned since new and I no longer have the mowers they work with. One was used with my John Deere GT235 48" deck (chute model 179), the other with a John DeereX300 42" deck (chute model 577). I do not know the Palmor Products model #'s unfortunately. Normal wear and tear...

Here in Virginia we are having our 2 x per decade decent snow event. I have a #8 brownstone driveway and I've never been very good at getting the snow off with my JD 1025R. I have a rear blade, which requires constant attention to keep from gouging. I have put PVC on my loader and use it in...

Interesting… never have run across Red Armor. How is that better than say Stihl Motomix (or equivalent)? I noticed it said it stabilizes fuel for up to two years…

We live in a semi wooded lot and there are some pretty good dark stained areas on one part of my roof. I've tried various products by several manufactures (30 Seconds Outdoor Cleaner, Scott's Outdoor Cleaner, that have in the past, worked well. on lighter stains. Even at full, non diluted...

Just under $300; guy bought a lot of goods at an estate sale and this was in it. Body is in good shape, bar pretty worn. I cut down two 2.5 or so diameter oaks and sectioned them up, that thing didn't miss a beat. Hope it holds up! It'll complement my MS250 quite nicely.

Excellent! Thanks!

My wife and I would love one. The retail ones I’ve seen can run six thousand or so delivered/installed. Anyone tackled this themselves or used a good kit?

Excellent tips from everyone. Thank you.

I picked up a Century MIG welder for $75; I have always wanted to learn and I thought this would be an easy/cheap way to get started. It is not currently set up for gas and I bought a spool of flux core wire at Tractor Supply. I would appreciate any info on good tutorials, online training, etc...

I believe I found the problem, albeit accidentally. I was underneath the tractor, cleaning, and noticed a rod that was not connected to anything. It is #9 on the diagram attached, and slides into #5. The hardware to secure the back end of the rod is missing. When I manually place the rod into...
