Hi Guys, Having trouble keeping my neighbor's JD4500 running. She has congestive heart disease, so trying to help. It starts, runs for about 45 seconds, then quits if you don't give fuel. Had to leave the brush hog in the field and baby the tractor home because if you lift it, the engine shuts...

Got a "free" 6 foot disc and I am looking to rebuild it, but could use a little help. A friend of mine got a new disc and he gave me his old one... Yeah... the frame was "repaired" (welded wierd) when I got it, so I cut the thing back apart and huck-bolted it together (the best welders I know...

:thumbsup: Hi Guys!! It's been a rough couple weeks. I'm sorry didn't get back to y'all sooner! I've spent 2 days and evenings stripping my barn and putting back 650 pounds of fresh straw for bedding/soaking up all the darn water. Short story is, I ended up with sciatica. Hard for me to even...

:D You all crack me up! So Ok... Just got in from feeding and got pictures... Er... Category 1 pins are in the hay spear, so I guess it's cat 1... Of course, I have these magical uni-bits that gradually make holes larger... :o Oh yeah! The pictures! Sorry... I can't tell you HOW happy I...

So far I have done what teg recommended and moved the top link to the top hole. I took a picture... not sure if I can make the adjustment on the arms... Kind of looks different. Or, if I understand correctly, the holes the pins are already in are the ones that give more force...

Hi Guys, UPDATE... Today is the 28th day of the tractor being in the shop. One month. I finally wrote them an email because I'm tired of being cold and wet, and not able to feed my cattle. Here is what I got back... "... I discussed this repair with Robert S, our service manager this...

Copied from another thread I'd latched on to, and then asked if I could put this in new thread? Ok... So here goes, teg... Post 1) Man.... Really bummed. No lift in FEL (except for rolling back and forth). No 3 point lift, so can't feed the cows. L2400 has been at the dealer for 2 weeks. And...

Hi Folks, I've been looking for a used seed drill. Even used, though, it seems they are priced right up there with new ones. I guess once you get one, you don't let it go. A friend of mine told me to rent one, but I have about 30 acres to seed/maintain/graze horses and cattle on, so it doesn't...
