I was finishing my 50 hour service today and it was changing the lube on the front end. Left side drained fine as did the center axle section. On the right side it dripped out. Took a look into the drain hole and saw what looked like the side of the bearing race. I called my dealer and...

I modified my brush guard. Before During After

I did a search but had no luck. I'm hoping someone here can help. I'm going to be modifing the brush guard to better protect the radiator, a fair amount of welding will be done. I'll need to paint when finished. My local dealer has no touch up paint. Has anyone found something close off the...

I was going to grease my loader today but had some issues. On the zerks that are on the pins I couldn't get the coupler to go on the zerk. Is it possible I need a different coupler to fit the zerk?

I've noticed on my DK45SE HST that the steering wheel is not always in the same position when the wheels are straight. I have a spinner on my wheel and one time it will be at noon when going down the raod the next time it maybe at 6 other times at 3. Pretty much all over the place. Is this...

Monday I'm going to look at a DK45SE HST. The price quote I have is $22500 with a loader. Does this sound like a fair price? Also it has R4 tires on it. I was thinking that R1 maybe a better options for me as I plan on skidding log this winter. But the R4's are rated for heavier loads and...

I'm in the market for a CUT in the 35-45 HP range. I've got quotes on a JD 3038e, New Holland Work Master 40 & a Kioti DK45SE HST. All are near the same price. From the specs the Kioti weighs more, has a higher hyd. flow (gpm) and rated to lift more than the other 2. JD & NH are names I...

Stopped yesterday and got a quote for a tractor and some eq. Is this in line with your area?

Within the next year I'm looking to get a tractor. Leaning heavy towards a 3038E with hydrostatic drive. The hydro will be great for loader work but I do plan to use it to skid some logs from my property. My BIL say's a hydro will not stand up to this. Is he correct? Would I be better off...

I don't post here often but do check in now and then. I am looking at the possibility of getting a CUT within the next year. Leaning towards something in the 3 series very possibly a 3038. Can someone tell me the difference in an E or R within the 3 series. Thanks

I'm looking to put a plow on my ATV (cat 700). I plan on moving some dirt and possibly gravel. Any suggestions? Thanks

I'm looking to buy a welder for home. I'll be doing nothing heavy with it. Up to 1/4" would be the max. I've used a 120 volt Miller for TIG welding in the past and it worked slick. I've been asking around for suggestions on a MIG 120 volt unit. Most people tell me don't even bother with a...

I have been looking for an old lime/fertilizer drop spreader. Something 6' wide would be great, anything larger would be cut down as I want to use this for food plots. I did find one not far from home but it's in real bad shape. Anyone have or know someone who has one they are looking to get of...
