rScotty that is what I'm thinking happen but I have not torn into the sickle bar valve to see.

I'm considering connecting my dump trailer to my trucks battery, I have seen several kits to do this with but my concern is the strain it would put on my truck battery and since my Ram has two batteries does it make a difference which battery I connect to? I also have a tilt deck hydraulic...

I have never had a scrape blade on my L45 but I believe it would not have a problem. My thought would be do you have loaded tires for traction? I use a 5 foot blade on my B26 just for reference.

After cleaning out the valve I used the L45 about 6 hours and it worked good there was one time it acted like it past some trash or had some air in it but I was not using the sickle bar or the 3rd function so hopefully it past on to the tank where the filter can take care of it.

This the second time this has happened to me, the first time was hard to figure out but this time I knew just what to do. That's why we all share our experiences on TBN I know I have learned a lot reading about someone else misfortune.

rScotty, I believe it uses the PB port and the trash was not letting the spool go back to center.

That is a picture of it mounted on a skid steer not on my Kubota

:unsure: was it something I said?

The 3rd function valve messed up again I told myself if it did it again I was replacing it with a new one, but I didn't! While using my hydraulic sickle bar the other day my 3rd function valve stuck on. since it was on I just finished what I was doing but the rest of the tractor hydraulics kept...

I put one similar to that on my motorcycle but with a volt meter and it works great. Nice clean install on yours, none of my tractors have one I may have to look at that.

This thread might be some good reading for you. https://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/threads/logsplitter-lift.328514/

I checked all the lights vanity mirror, glove box and cabin lights did not see any on but that did raise a question. since the 12v plug has to be hot all the time in order to work and the only one I have is behind the console I think I will try to splice into the hot wire going to the glove box...

I ordered a 10W solar panel with a built in controller so we will see how it works.

If I am understanding what your saying I would think #20 would be the problem, or maybe just order both.

A few years ago when I was doing side jobs I would have like to have had that trailer it looks like it could have been handy, but now a days I leave most of the work to someone else.

I had my alternator checked when I replaced the batteries and I do have the HD and it was showing good voltage. All connections have been checked I was hoping I had missed something. I like the solar idea cause when we go camping and carry the motorcycle the truck may not get cranked until it...

this sounds like an opportunity to upgrade the pump if need be.

Since I retired I don't drive my truck unless I need a truck hauling or pulling something. With fuel prices the way they are we go in the car or on the motorcycle when possible. So I have in the past year replaced the both batteries in my 2018 ram because after it sitting for a week or so it...

I got in trouble yesterday I parked beside a handicap spot (I have a disabled vet tag) and my wife says that spot is closer to the door and my reply was I don't feel handicapped today and you need to walk so I sit in the car while she went in. 😊

Glad you are ok and that is a good reminder to the rest of us.

I think it is Bias ply

I finally got a chance to use my lift with a mower, that was the easiest blades I ever changed and I been changing them on that Kubota for 10 years.

my wife had back surgery and me not wanting to do the dirty work bought her a ToTo bidet to add on our toilet the heated set is all ways just right and that splash of water when your done with your business is great, we sure do miss it when we go on vacation. Do retired people still get a...

Ebay, there are more there now than when I got mine. we have used the usb connector while camping.

I still have a few craftsman 19V tools and have not bought a battery for them in years, I switched to Milwaukee and bought an adapter to run the Milwaukee batteries on my craftsman tools. I only have a few craftsman left but the adapter will also allow me to plug in my cell phone.

My daughter-in-law wanted to buy my son a chainsaw for Christmas a couple years ago and being the fortune teller I am :unsure: I talked her into a battery Milwaukee because he already had an impact and drill and I have several batteries. My prediction was right it set in his closet for almost a...

Welcome to TBN! Your post don't say what part of Alabama I am in central

my runners are bolted in place with no other holes to bolt them in. I only bought one air jack I used the air jack to raise up one side of the vehicle and placed jack stands under front and rear.

Since I modified the wheels on the lift, like yesterday I used the tractor and pulled the lift outside where we done the tire rotation and had a look under his vehicle at things he had not seen before and he has decided he is going to change his own oil and filter since the lift will make it a...

I should have asked him that.

My grandson came by today and wanted to rotate his tires, so I got to try out the air jack on the lift. It all worked fine and I did not have to crawl around on the ground to find a good place for the jack.

Mine are not and as heavy as they are I don't think I want to. I have done some measuring and believe the ZTR will fit cross ways. I am going to cut two runners to go in the middle and put my mower ramps that I use to load on the trailer on the side drive it on and remove or just slid the two...

shhhh don't say that out loud I plan on using that excuse to add on to the shop. ;)

That's one of the reasons I went with the four post but the mobility was a bigger reason. I replaced the swivel wheels on one end of the lift and now I can move it in and out of the shop without much trouble using the tractor of course.

I won't be able to do that with mine unless I get real creative. but that's pretty awesome.

https://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/threads/sabre-samurai.280697/ this is from when I first got mine and if you will search there are several more with lots of info. I don't use mine anymore since I got the bigger sickle bar.

I can't help myself I tried to move on but couldn't. is STUPID another one of those words we can't say? sorry I didn't know.

I have used a sabre sickle bar on the front of my B26 and I use motor rpm for the speed of the mower and just hold the button because sometimes I need it to stop quickly.

The real test Ram 2500 and it did good.

Optical allusion, I was a little down hill from the concrete pad when I took the picture.

First picture I was still putting it together and the second and third is the first lift of a vehicle.

Here is the China jack notice the quality screw head is not even centered. I have not tried it out yet on anything.

When I went to pick it up, I read on line that it would fit on a 16 foot trailer, that was close but it did good and made it home safe.

I went and picked up my lift and this thing is heavy but I hope to get it together soon. With family obligations it may take me as long to get it together as it did for them to ship it. o_O

Got good idea's already and if you were close to where I live I would run by one day and move it for you. Maybe someone close by has a bigger tractor with forks.

My lift has been sitting in Atlanta Georgia since Friday waiting on a 2 hour drive to Birmingham Alabama where I can pick it up. I asked the lady if I could just pick it up in Atlanta and she said no, so here I sit knowing it is just 2 hours away and I can do nothing but wait.

I just hauled 5 ton last week, I hope they don't start that here.

Homedepot tool rental is where I would go.

Yesterday I painted the roof on my shed, the day before I laid 320 feet of Pex using the subsoiler and the day before that I put a ladder/canoe rack on my pickup. I can't remember no further back but I am not planning on anything today I am gonna sit my retired self on the porch and watch the...

I looked at the picture for a date code and did not see one. It may not be when the OP bought them but rather when they were made.

That looks good sure could of used that when I pulled the last one I thought my arms were going fall off they hurt so bad.

I bought a set of Gladiator tires several years ago and they have been good so far, so last year I put a set on my dump trailer.

That is Awesome

This is the way I have mine so when I use my grapple the top button is always the open position and I cannot connect it backwards.

Pictures where's the pictures

Good lesson learned now I hope I am old enough to learn from your mistake. Thanks for posting.

I see what your saying about it being awkward and I figure it would splash out too. Yep I may have to visit Harbor Freight, that one is probably bigger than I need but then that could be a good thing.

If I ask for an other tool chest she would probably lock me in the shop, wait a minute that's not a bad idea.

I hate being late to the party but I do like a happy ending. While you are picking the biocide pick up that thermostat sensor and you will be good to go.

I have thought about the oil drain but with the jack tray I figured I would just put my old oil catch pan on it. I may need something to put on my father's day list :unsure:

I went yesterday and got the oil and lights for my lift and I haven't even got a shipping date yet. I am as excited as a kid on X-mas. My wife wishes I would hush about my new toy.

I have the bolt on version but welded it on to my bucket in the middle.

I like the idea of a 2 inch receiver in the middle and welded on hooks close to the SSQA mounts. the receiver gives you a lot of options later on.

I have been doing some looking and I am going to install some LED lights down both sides I think it is called tape lights and they are 16 feet long.

https://www.wildfirelifts.com/ That's one of the things that I like about this with a little effort and I can move the lift outside in front of my shop, roll my tool box to the door and enjoy my day.

the rolling jacks are just over 1,000 dollars each.

That's about what I was thinking, I have not used a 4 post so I don't really know but I have been watching a lot of video's and learning from them. I'm thinking the bottle jack can be placed on the runway to jack it up and use a jack stand to hold it.

That's what I thinking to much money for how much I would use it. I may shop around and see if a different one will fit.

I did get the sliding jack tray, is that more for holding like a bottle jack and tools?

I didn't order the air jacks and I don't know how much I may need them, but I like the idea of raising the equipment up to working height before trying to jack it up if needed.

Thanks for all the replies and ideas I am really looking forward to getting the lift. I decided to get a four post so I don't have to get down on the ground to line up the lift every time I need to put something on the lift.

After changing the oil in the wife's car and rotating the tires the other day I was so sore from getting up off the ground and just a week or so before that I changed the oil in my TriGlide and hurt for a few days, I decided on getting a shop lift for all my equipment. I have not received it yet...

ok I have nothing to help but I have an observation in post #1 it is a HER and in post #6 it is a HIS. Maybe there is more to the story.

my gate is only 900 ft. from house and I installed solar with a deep cycle battery, I still charge the battery about once every three months it would be less but we don't want to cut more trees for more sun light to get in. I also modified a subsoiler for direct bury and to lay pex water line...

Sounds like a project and move worthy of some pictures, let us watch

I have moved a couple of buildings that did not have skids, the smaller ones I dragged them on my trailer anyway, but the ones that were wider than my trailer I jacked up and backed the trailer under them. I have not tried it but that might be a good time to add the skids.

The building mover called me back and it seams there is over $12,000 still owed on the building. I Ran fast as I could!

I was told by the building mover that he would have to check some data base to make sure it is paid off before he would agree to move it. Wish I could check it, I guess I'll wait till I hear from him. The building looks in good shape but it shows signs of being moved a few times when I asked him...

I was told that but after doing some research I found 20 pounds per square foot to be more realistic if the inside is not finished. I figure about 11,000 pounds.

I think I agree with WM75Guy I don't have the right equipment.

Not sure how tall it is but it is a single height, I have moved a few smaller buildings and gazebos, yes it is a portable Graceland building, I think for a $1000 I would let someone else move it. portable Graceland building

okay this might end up in Hauling or Towing Something Wrong thread, but I was told about a deal on a 14 x 36 building, it's only 5.2 miles from my house and only 2 miles on a main highway the rest is a back road. The building mover wants 1800 dollars to move the building but I have a 14K 20 foot...

I make sure to never leave the battery in it, I use vinyl gloves when I grease and when I'm done I wipe off the gloves and slide the grease nozzle into the finger hole then sit on a rag on the shelf.

that's neat if I tried that with my Phantom 3 standard it would be trashed.

Mine was a bad seal on the pump and it did not leak a drop. That being said I don't believe it's your pump must be something you changed or cleaned or maybe over tightened, hopefully yours will show itself in the form of a small leak.

need to figure how it got milky is it water contamination or is it sucking air some where? My B26 was sucking so much air it was foaming out the vent and looked milky. Is the level higher than when you last checked it. Was the oil you drained out milky looking?

Last one I replaced I bought from a dryer repair shop, he had one on the shelf

Okay the guys from the power company showed up yesterday and said everything looks good so they connected me right up I now have my power under ground from their pole to my house. I told them I capped the end of the conduit to keep water out until they got here and they said it would not have...

when they install mine it will be 3 feet deep, I know because I buried the conduit :)

I have some that looks like that today and my wife was blowing leaves out of the driveway yesterday, could it be?

When you check someone's location does it alert them that they are being checked on?

My wife works in a liquor store and sales have went up every year since she's been there.

I don't guess I have ever heard of that.

When our son got his ticket he had to pay the ticket and the increase in the insurance, it must have worked he hasn't had a ticket since and that was almost 10 years ago. Good luck

When I went back out this mourning and checked the conduit had dropped about a 1/2 inch or less so that means what I did yesterday worked. I took a female coupling and lathed off part of it making a nut that was about 1 inch tall and I screwed that on instead of the metal ring I believe this...

Woke up Friday mourning to a problem, the rain we got settled the ground and pulled the conduit completely from the box. I thought well I am gonna have to dig it up and fix it anyway so I connected a strap around the conduit and used the tractor to lift it, while putting a lot of pressure on the...

would it be possible to mount a safety cable from the access door to the chimney to latch your safety harness to and permanently mount the ladder to the chimney so it can't kick out with you?

Back many years ago I was sitting on my porch and saw fire coming out of a neighbors house about 1/4 mile away, as I was running down there I could see it was coming from the chimney looked like a giant blow torch but when I got there the neighbors were standing in the yard watching it. They...

the power company is going to pull the wire, should be able to call them today and we will see when they can come out.

I'm not sure what you are hauling but a 14 foot trailer is to short to be an equipment trailer, can you make it work (yes) will you be happy with it? probably not. but that's just my opinion

I'm not sure of the code when I was asking one power company said 24 to 48 inches but the company I get my power from says 36 inches so that's what I done and sent him pictures cause he had to approve it. I have 1600 feet of water line to the meter and we used a rented ditch witch it may be 12...

what was that for, the step down got me to thinking about the footing I dug for my shop.

The guy from the power company said 36" to the top of the conduit

I told my kids get an education or you will end up digging ditches, well it turns out digging ditches pays pretty good. I decided I wanted to move my power to the house under ground and the utility company says that's fine but after he gave me a price with them digging the ditch verses me...

seen this the other day the only thing tied was a piece of string holding the blanket on.

I believe the scissor lift is just fine for what we do, I seam to remember a YouTube demonstration on the different lifts.

I am always on the look out for plastic pallets the wood pallets just don't last long enough.

There is a lot of good information and I think all of your questions have been answered, but I will share my experience I had a smaller dump trailer and could not haul my tractor in it so I bought a 14 foot 14K Dump with ramps and a scissor lift and I have no regrets. I did find out the hard way...

My in-laws told me one time I should turn on my right turn signal when the vehicle in front of me is turning right, even if I am going straight. It became a big discussion between both families, me saying no I should not. so a year or more later the father-in-law turned his blinker on for the...

I keep a battery jump box in my truck all the time. I have used it on the dump trailer, the rollback trailer and sometimes I use it to jump something off.

I don't have a John Deere, so I'll ask does the 110 have a metal strainer in the suction line from the tank? most everything I have worked on does.

We use my Miller welder as a back up generator, no auto start but it is not just sitting there I do use it for welding sometimes. I leave it in the shop and back feed my panel to the house but I don't try to power everything in the house. I use my gas logs for back up heat. the longest we've had...

607145 the 7 footer is heavy I keep my drive clear with it was using the samurai for that task. 476113

That's what I did on my B26 when I first got the samurai and it worked just fine but was a pain to connect and run the hoses up front so I could see what I was doing. I also used the RPM's of the motor to control the speed of the cutters. I later added forward remotes and connecting it was a lot...

Just my two cents, if I were in your situation as in owning the mill and the trees I would use some white oak and enjoy a solid deck for years.

My wife use to be a manager at her work, so now a thought comes across her mind and out her mouth and then she looks at me like why aren't you moving yet. It's a good thing I have 3 dog houses to go too, two shops and a game room, see ya! :whistle:

234834,234835 I built this maybe 35 years ago and plan to restore it one day, I don't burn wood anymore so no hurry. it has about 75 feet of cable so dragging big rounds or even a 10 log to the splitter was no problem. If a round was big enough I would use the lift to sit it on the beam and...

I guess I should have explained better but this is how the loader operator knocks the top off, he does not press it flat. my trailer is 14 feet so his bucket does fit inside and he just racks the top to the sides.

A 16 foot 7K trailer is not much more than a utility trailer, consider the advice given above and do the safe thing. Now if it is a great deal and you have a use for it then go ahead but be aware of it's limited capacity. I have a 16 foot 7K trailer and use it a lot but not for my tractor and...

Okay, you are making me appreciate my loader operator, we communicate on a CB radio and he tries to load my dump trailer evenly and he will even take his bucket and knock the top down where it does not show above the trailer sides.

1968 Plymouth satellite

A lot of good advice here, but are you using the box blade or the scrape blade because they are used a little differently. I use the scrape blade to clean out my ditches first and then with blade angled toward the right rear wheel I drag the drive down to the end and back up the other side back...

I call mine 26 and 45 and the last one is OL Blue cause that what my old neighbor called it.

funny story about a dirt floor, about 40 years ago I replaced a starter on a slant 6 motor and it still would not crank over so I asked an older wiser guy next door what he thought and he says it has to be the starter and he has an old one in his shop so we go to get it after a while of looking...

if you are already using cpvc for cold water why not just stay with it and run your new line the same? just asking.

it seams like it is never enough, I started out with a 16 footer and now have a 20 footer also and I do use the 20 footer a lot more than the 16.

Sounds like something my in-laws need

I have no doubt the chains are what is holding the weight, if the chains break or was not there the truck would be on the ground.

There is some great info here, and just curious is the breaker a GFCI breaker or a normal double pole breaker. Also compare the rated starting amps from the book on the pump with what was actually installed.

I like this place neighbor helping neighbor (y)

Thanks Roustabout good information I am going to do that

I replaced the wore out lift piston seal and cleaned the inlet screen. the tractor is working smooth and not jumping as before, thanks guys for the help. But the best thing was my grandson was off work and asked if he could help with the tractor, so a day bonding with my 20 year old grandson and...

I bought an adapter for my Milwaukee 18v battery pack, since I always have a battery charged then I'm always ready.

okay I ordered some parts to do this with a lift piston seal and O-rings for both lift and suction strainer. hopefully it all goes well.

I believe that's a 3 inch pipe schedule 40 and I just cut it off to fit where I wanted it, I just held it up to the tractor and marked a spot to cut. just hang both hooks on the edge of the pipe. I think that chain is a 10 footer. Drill a drain hole in the bottom just in case you get caught in...

the fluid level has not changed but I do think I have some aeration happening.

Ben, that's a good list and E and J on that list is what I was going to do first. Thanks

I think maybe aeration, but no I did not clean the screen because I didn't know it was there until after I was done.

The screen in front of the radiator really did it's job had to clean it several times. Looks like I will be replacing it soon, if I can find one. It has some rust and holes in it.

Some may remember me talking about my neighbors tractor that belonged to her father and I had tried to buy, well back in Dec 2020 she decided to take me up on my 2 year old offer and sale it to me. I changed all the fluids and filters and with a little work got that old tractor to running. I...

609123 been using this for years, just a peace of pvc pipe

That looks like a lawnmower wheel bushing, if you get the rest of the measurements maybe able to find one.

I always put my FEL and BH on the ground, less stress on tractor and hydraulics

Good looking trailer but what's up with the enclosed trailer it looks good too

I'm amazed everyday at what this world is coming to

that's nice I miss my old 151A1 we use to ride in it a lot.

when you did this did you hear the valve making a noise like it was moving? do you connect your hoses together when not on the tractor this helps keep dirt off your connectors and out of your system. mine was doing similar to yours and when I took the valve apart and cleaned it good I found...

You have a beautiful home and the back drop of the mountains is great. my last three homes have had a circular drive, two of them went all the way around the house but for privacy reasons my present home is only in the front. My in-laws built their circular drive using a jeep, don't make that...

that will help keep grass build up knocked off

I think I get less done at my house and shop now that I am retired than I did before, but the neighbors are sure getting to know me better.

I also use a IBC tote, I cut a door and put a safety chain across it. how do you get in the tote if you are working alone?

I had not thought of that Thanks for posting.

saw this yesterday glad the trailer had strong fenders.

Grandson sent this picture to me a few minutes ago he said the hub was still smoking. Looks like a bad day.

when I had that problem it turned out to be a seal in the pump, the elbow was replaced first but did not fix the problem.

At 62 I'm still just along for the ride, and I have no clue what was going on". ;)

my wife was sitting in her car eating lunch when she seen this. she sent the picture to me to share with on here.

saw these guys broke down on the road and stopped to help and maybe educate a small amount. very nice and very thankful couple of young men, I hope they made it where they were going . I help them with a tire and rearranged some of their load I even took some home with me. they offered to pay me...

I have the Kubota brand forward Hydraulics and while using my sickle bar cutter today it appears the valve stuck because I have no control over it and when I took the hydraulic sickle mower off the tractor would not move very fast and the FEL and Backhoe will not move. it was late and I didn't...

Sorry it took so long.

Thanks Gunny, I was thinking I needed to make this tractor related so here is yesterday's progress. what could be better than time spent with grandson and on the tractor.

I got the transfer switch in and it is working like it should on shore power, have not tried the generator. while I was in the breaker box I found a loose ground and a neutral wire. the neutral block had gotten so hot at some time in the past that it had the plastic insulator broken and brittle...

took the time to remove the transfer switch so I could order the correct one, got the new one delivered but have not installed yet.

I recently acquired a 2006 Fleetwood Gearbox Toy-hauler, I'm not going to restore it to new but I am going to do some repairs. Some of the known problems are Electric landing gear not working, transfer switch not transferring, it's got a weak spot in the floor of the garage area and the...

Okay I installed a gas fire place last year and about half way through the tank of fuel my gas logs went out and would not lite back up. since the fire logs where new to us we did use them a lot so I thought we had used up the gas but after checking the gauge it showed half a tank but still no...

This has probably been talked about before, we are getting ready for a trip so I had my truck serviced which included tire rotation after driving back and forth to work for a week I decided to torque the lugs on the truck and found each wheel had at least one and one wheel had two lugs that were...

I needed that sign a few days ago, but now I have more room for some new to me junk.

These are the best pictures I have with me, but I did use some self tapping screws to mount them to the ROPs

I broke the lift arm on my Skid Steer Sickle mower that I use on my Kubota L45. I bought this attachment used and am not sure the lift arm was assembled correctly does anyone have this mower that can post a picture of the way it is supposed to be?

I have a chance of getting a swing arm brush mower, do you TBN experts think my L45 can handle the side weight of the mower?

the wife suggested I use my fancy trailer as she calls it so I tried it but the stump was just to big. at one point the trailer had the tractor completely off the ground.

Wife asked me did I have to dig such a big hole! Had this tree cut down a few months ago and decided to dig it up this past Friday and Saturday it was a monster to get out of that hole. I knew before hand that the L45 was not going to pick it up but I thought I could roll it out of the hole with...

well some people might call it a red neck gathering but had fun. So it started off with my loving wife decided since I was turning the big 60 years old that I needed a special get together with all the kids, grandkids and great grandkids. her plans were for my oldest grand boy to cook steaks on...

Seen this today and thought it was interesting

Sorry it took so long but here are the pictures you asked for.

My new truck going to do some work about 20 miles away, this is it's third pull since purchasing it on the 11 of Jan. yesterday we made two trips with my 7 ton dump trailer loaded with firewood gave it to a family about 7 miles away. Truck did fine

On Saturday the 28th I loaded up the B26 and box blade to go straighten up a road that has not been touched in 20 plus years and just a little while into it I noticed oil blowing out the vent tube so I cut the tractor off and when I started again it didn't blow out for a while but eventually did...

on Friday the 13 I was cutting my grass and the mower deck rolled up a rock that the blades would not have normally hit, but the deck hit it and rolled the rock out of the ground the blades tried their best to chop it up but it was the rear window on my truck that caught a piece of the rock...

I have been using a Sabre for the past several years and has worked pretty good, saved me lots of time.

this is my new to me sickle bar that I will use in place of my Sabre to trim the driveway and perimeter of a two acre field.

Been playing around in the shop again, welded some channel iron on the bottom of an extra pair of ramps for my forks to fit in. my thinking is I can use this to raise a mower up to load or unload a mower, maybe raise one to look at and see what's wrong but not work under it unless I put a safety...

I came up on this Sunday at a local station.

Not sure this is hauling something wrong but I did find it very interesting, we were at a local boat dock and this guy would pull this sail boat up the ramp so far that the extension on the trailer would try to raise the rear end of the truck off the pavement. so they connected another vehicle...

When my grandson and I come upon this guy he was already 10 miles from the nearest place to buy concrete, but at least the landscaping timber is not going any where.

I have a 10000 LB jack on my 24 foot trailer and I want to use my 19.2 volt drill to work it, I tried it with my 19.2 impact and broke the adapter I was using. Has anyone done this or converted a standard jack into an electric one?

Okay I turned the wheels to the left, removed the line on the left, turned the steering wheel to the left oil under pressure came from the hose and when I turned the steering wheel to the right very little oil came from the hose but no oil came from the cylinder at any time. :confused2:

went out today to get rid of a recent dead tree.

was bush hogging yesterday and the steering kept getting harder. the wheels would turn but I had to put out to get them to turn. the front loader bucket still raises like it should and the three point hitch raises fine. checked the fluid and it was fine, I raised and lowered the bucket and...

Here is a few more items I added to the deal, I think now I need some time use some of it.

I finally got some to upload.

New to me and almost new anyway with only 75 hours on the clock. I ran across this L45 and decided I just had to have it. I already told on myself when I posted about the grapple that I got in the deal but I figured I would post a few pictures here. I ordered the forward hydraulics and when they...
