I did a search and looked through what manuals I have and still couldn't find what size shear bolt I need for my LX5. I know they're low grade, but I don't know the actual size. Anyone here happen to know?

We finally got fed up with the battery in our 790 leaking and tearing apart the battery housing. I've done quite a bit of reading here and just recently did a search on this topic but I've still got a question. If I'm correct the Optima Redtop 75-25 would be a good choice for replacement. Am...

Anyone know what size sockets I'd need to tighten the blades/hardware on a LX5 rotary cutter? I did a search and didn't come up with the answer. Thanks, guys.

We put about 30 hours on our new 790 this summer preparing and planting the wildlife food plots. I know the suggested time for servicing the tractor is at 50 hours, and I've been told doing it around the 40 hours range is a good thing. However this tractor is going to get seasonal work. It...

Can anyone tell me the wheel bolt size of the front and rear tires on the 790? Just so I can avoid buying a bunch of sockets that I don't need. I'd appreciate it.

My new JD 790 has just a tick over 1 hour on it now and the book says to check wheel bolt torque. Here's the problem: the only torque wrench I could find is about 18 inches long and it will not fit correctly where I can get the socket over the bolt. The end of the handle hits the tire and the...

Got it this morning. Very nice service by the dealer. Within a week or so I shall return for the LX5 cutter and a rear blade. Also to be purchased are the seed spreader and 5.5 foot disk. Towing this new toy was the mighty 1994 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 V-8. She performed perfectly and never...

I just got back from test driving a 790. Good Lord...that baby is coming home with me this weekend!!

Yes I realize I could call the dealer tomorrow, but I'm impatient and trying to get my post numbers up. Do the 790 tractors have live PTO? I know a few who own them and they tell me they do, but only on the 4x4 tractors. I know a few changes were made for 2004 so I'm not sure if they still...

We're nearing the end of our tractor search. The 790 looks to be the one. As much as I'd love to have a front end loader put on it I'm not sure that will be able to happen (yet). If we don't get the loader at first I want some weights on the front for when/if we end up pulling a disk or...

We're looking into a JD 790 4x4 to use to prepare some wildlife food plots on our property. We've got about 4 acres to plant with the biggest field being just over 1 acre and all others coming in at under 1/3 of an acre. I'm wondering, what size disks would the 790 be able to handle? I've...

Hey guys. We're getting ready to buy our first (probably used) tractor and I've got a question. I tried to search the forums as best I could for an answer before posting but I didn't come up with what I needed, so please forgive me if this topic has been beaten to death before. The tractor...
