    which grease for slow & fast bearings & bushings

    Hi, Texas Refinery 880 Crown and Chassis in everything. You can order online. The only grease that stopped constant bearing failures in flail mower roller assemblies in Alamo when I worked for the Turnpike mowing 216 miles of highway in mud and water constantly. Brian

    Chippers Comparable to Bear Cat CH5540?

    Hi, I had a Woods 5000 AKA Bearcat chipper was a good unit. Bought one of the new Woodmaxx MX8600 that are made in the USA. I love this chipper, super quality and self contained hydraulic feed. I think it is the best chipper on the market right now in this size and very easy and safe to...

    Consolidation and Rebranding

    Somewhere along the line they missed the fact that Mahindra owns the controlling interest in Mitsubishi AG that builds most of their compact tractors. Would not be surprised to see CNH build their own compacts down the road. Brian.

    Owner Reviews on LX Series

    Hi, Messicks has a video of the new 2023 LX series which are I think 3510 and 4010. Wider tractor, bigger rear end, auto throttle and also wider loader. Would definitely go that route. Brian

    YT235 down again!

    Hey guys, I so hate to hear stories like this. Brand new machine and they are thinking about doing the bottom end? I am not sure Yanmar is going to make it this time around without Deere. So its 8 PM on a holiday weekend and I just got back from the funeral home. It is nice to know that my...

    2019 Mahindra 1626 Shuttle Shift Engine Oil Recommendation

    Hi, Use 5-40 or 0-40 Rotella, Delo or Delvac full synthetic in the engine. Order factory filters and have your dealer ship them to you UPS. Kubota SUDT2 synthetic in the transmission. Forget the NAPA or aftermarket filters my Mitsubishi did not like them on the tranny. NAPA and TSC...

    LS MT 225S

    Hi, Anyone seen the new MT 225S up close that replaces the aging XJ units? Pics from National Farm Machinery show look great. I would say they aimed it directly at the Kubota B 2601 which is what Deere should have looked at when they came out with their new downgraded version of the...

    Bercomac/Mahindra Pro 1000 Series Blower

    Hey Guys, Has anyone here purchased the Bercomac Pro 1000/56" branded as Mahindra rear blower with the belt drive and electric rotator and deflector? I like the looks, Youtube vids and fit/finish on this unit just a little scared as it's around 325# and a Woods or RAD is like 450-510...

    New Holland 914 MMM/Rear Discharge

    Hey Guys, Can someone with the 914A rear discharge tell me if during the initial setup the deck should be pretty much level front to back? Purchased a basically new TC24DA with NIB mower and it has too much forward tilt with the front yokes that lift the deck set flush as the...

    John Deere 990 Starter Issue

    Hi Guys, My buddy's 990 with 312 hours stored in heated garage won't start. Put in a new battery and removed dash panels, key switch and all wires are connected. Cleaned ground, removed starter and had it tested-they said it was fine. Put back in and just a loud click. Hook starter directly...

    TC29DA Coolant Change/Deere Cool-Gard II

    Hi Guys, Need to change the coolant in my TC29DA and there are so many choices to pick from. I decided on Deere Cool-Gard II Premix and is the only one Deere has. Assuming this will be fine for my tractor as it does not take ELC and this is not marked as such and supposed to be ok for...

    Replacement for Deere 2520/2720

    I was looking at tractors last week and my local Deere dealer said there will be no changes to the 2520/2720 series. I thought there was going to be some subtle changes and a new numbering of these models? I figured this was the reason he was trying to sell me a 2720 for $17, 100 he had on...
