Curious if anyone has tried a Massey CB05 backhoe on a GC2300? Wondering how different the sub frames are. Thanks

I have a 2003 GC2300. Bought originally by me at MF dealer. Less than 270 original hours on the clock. Muffler exhaust pipe has broke off and the exhaust heat melted the headlight assembly. After doing a little research, it became clear that this is a known problem and they actually changed...

Looking for a source for wheel weights and suitcase weights for my Massey GC2300. Please advise if you know of a source. Don't want to have filled tires so weights will be the next best thing. Thanks in advance.

Just picked up a 30" ExMark commerical mower- love it so far- handles and acts like a 21" but mows 30" at a time. I like it better than 36" Exmark metro. Toro also makes the same machine with a couple of changes and Toro on it instead of ExMark- Toro also makes a homeowner version but it had too...

asking 12.5k...sounds like a deal (maybe even a scam...) thoughts?

Hello All- Just put in an offer on a house with 6 acres today. It is almost all timber and I want to cut it and sell the timber. I currently have a GC2300 but don't think it is enough tractor for this project as I would likely have to at least pile them out the road for pick-up. So, my question...

Looking for attachments for stihl FS90R- specifically pruning saw and hedger, pole extension, maybe blower and rototiller. Also looking for bicycle bars, throttle setup, double harness, and metal blade cutting head to convert FS250R to a FS250 for brush cutting. Don't want to pay retail...

I am gearing up to do some light brushcutting and have been looking for brush blade specific chaps but have really only found chainsaw chaps- because the two machines work and are stalled in very different ways, i am concerned that the chainsaw chaps are not sufficient...anyone aware of brush...

Just noticed that they are building a new Ritchie Bros Auction center near me...anyone done any business with them and how are the prices? Seems like I will be holding off on buying anything until after they open...anyone know if it is open to the public or if you need some sort of credential?

So I've read a bunch of threads about BIY log splitters and everyone has done a great job- I've started pricing out parts as I would need to buy everything new and it doesn't appear that this will save any $ over buying new (with a warranty for what its worth...) and I haven't even figured in...

After breaking TWO fiberglass handle 8lb mauls from home Depot, I did some reading on the internet and read great recs on the Fiskars X25 Splitting Axe- I bought it today at Walmart for $39 and couldn't be happier. At first I was concerned about the light weight (4.5 lbs) and the composite...

Hi All- i am interested in learning to weld- I have tried it a few times with my father who is a pretty good welder and have been around him for a lot of welding activities- unfortunately he is in another state and can't come by just to teach me to weld. I looked in to taking a class at the...

Anyone ever built a 3ph self powered log splitter. I want to be able to carry and lift the log splitter on my 3ph but don't want my tractor hydraulics to power it...essentially I could take a regular pull log splitter, cut the wheels off and set up the 3ph connections...(or leave the wheels on...

Looking at a piece of property that can be had for a steal (2-2500/acre) which is cheap around me (land usually starts at around 10k/acre)...problem is 1) unknown perk status (would be tested before closing and if no perk-no deal) 2) high tension power lines and easment run through proprty and...

Hello all- I am looking for a 5' x 16' bumper-tow open trailer (or other 16' long open trailer with 82" or less overall width). The way my lot is laid out, the only way I can get behind the house is through the back garage door which is only 82" wide. I have found several 5 x 14' that would...
