These are the two Benchmade knifes I carry one of them everyday. The one was a engraved gift from my wife, the plain blade one. She got it for me when I thought I lost the other one. About a month later we found it so now I have two. My dad always carried a old timer 3 blade. He gave me mine...

We had a company do this on a commercial site and the excvator bucket slipped and on track came off and the excvator flipped on its side. The operator got a concussion and broke his arm. Then osha came in because someone got hurt, I think it was a around a $15000 fine for unsafe practice. I was...

Yes I attached a picture below of the legs my dump trailer has. Stops the back of the trailer from dropping and pulling the back of truck off the ground The other picture is a of a 14 foot trailer (not mine) with a 12 foot you will be even closer to the front. It may put to much tongue weight...

I have a 26g. I normally haul it on my 24ft tilt bed. I do have a pj 6x16 low pro dump but I haven't hauled it in it yet. I just went out to my shop and measured mine and it is only 60 inches wide. With the bucked curled up by the blade it about 11 ft to the back. It looks like to me it will...

I just got the Alliance 550 for my new 4052r. Haven't gotten to try them out, hope they work well. I was trying to decide between the Alliances and the R14t's. Hoping the Alliance's are little easier on grass and do have to run down some roads occasionally

I have a 26g also, I love it. It does everything I need. I wouldn't mind a bigger counterweight. I looked a couple times, haven't seen anything that they make a bigger one. I was considering the 17g but got a great deal on the 26. I am happy I went with the bigger machine. I looked at cats also...

I installed a optima battery in my 4320 5 years ago never had a problem since.

I want to add 3rd, 4th and 5th hydraulics to my new 4044r with a cab. I have been searching to see how hard it is to do myself. I figured it is just quicker to ask if anyone has links to forums about adding them, and part numbers I may need I am mechanically inclined and grew up with heavy...

Hey everyone Yesterday placed a order for a new 4044r with cab and the MSL loader. They are saying it should be here in December. I currently have 2013 4320 with cab and the 485 backhoe. The dealer gave me a trade value that will hold until the new one comes in. He said I can try to sell mine...

I am a electrical contractor so do alot of conduit. I agree even the 12 inch bucket is big for what we do at times. I love your bucket, might have to break out the welder

Our local deere dealership will sell construction equipment up to an 120g excavator, skid steers and the smaller front end loaders from what the salesman told me. Sells all sizes of lawn mowers, cut, scut all the way up to deeres biggest 9 series

You are correct about the 16 inches wide. Wish they would have designed that better But for what I mainly will use it for is trenches 18in to 24in deep. From where the pins are to the teeth is 27in so it should work good.

Ordered the same thing rake, clean out buckt and 1 foot bucket. Ordered a 32 inch light bar today for across the top to replace the halogen one that come on the machine. I wish they had a angle blade option for all the machines instead of the larger ones. I could see it working for snow, needs...
