I've never seen or heard of a front discharge 3PH bush hog. What an idiotic idea on an open station tractor. I get enough crap discharged out the front of my rear discharge. I can't imagine doing it on purpose.

I just spent a couple of hours on mine. Man is it killer dry and hot here. That's the first time I've cut grass in a month.

My only experience with torsion was a boat trailer I had at one point. Obviously not the application you are referring to but I really liked the torsion over springs. A bit more bouncy or just active but a much smoother suspension.

Is that a new purchase or used? It looks new.

Kenny can hook you up. He knows hydro fittings.

Bad grounds are hard to get your head around when you are troubleshooting. Partial voltage is a good sign of that being the issue.

I'd own one now if there was a dealer anywhere near me.

You need to put a set of gauges on the system and see what the suction pressure is doing at the time the clutch disengages.

It would have a low pressure cutoff switch that takes out the compressor clutch when refrigerant charge is low. That's why it is cycling. It is low in freon.

Interesting that you can track the plane that you are flying on while you are flying on it. It's quite handy in identifying the towns and cities you are flying over and see out the window.

I would never attach solar panels to my roof. I've heard so many horror stories about roof damage and leakage from those panels.

Being on someone's ignore list is like a tree falling in the woods when no one is around.

Yep. What I told you was just information from a lesson learned. The thermistor is in the FSO circuit and that thermistor is bad about going to ground. At least on the 5310 and 5320. I think it's the same on all of them. When that thermistor goes to ground the fuse will blow and you have a no...

Get yourself a cheap wick bar.

I have no idea how to ignore someone. Not interested in doing it.

I'd buy a Fendt.

They do exist!!

The fuel shutoff has nothing to do with the starter turning the engine over. Two separate issues. The fuel shutoff will stop working when the cold start thermistor shorts to ground but that typically will blow the fuse for the FSO. This sounds more like a grounding issue.

@browndog has them on his 1511

I bet he pooped his draws.

I've been reading about Maschio's made in China. I've never seen this unicorn. My Tigre 300 was made in Italy.

What you are calling big square fuses are relays if it is similar to my 5310. I think my tractor had 3 of them. Just because you have 14 volts at the starter doesn't mean much. The real test is what the voltage drops to when you try to start the tractor. Put battery voltage straight to the...

The spring is a bi-metallic element that lights up the inside cavity of the spark plug when it is energized so the current knows where to go and doesn't bump into things. I win! But some of the answers were really close competition. Obviously, very few people know anything about spark plugs..

I think if the fuse link that he is referring to goes out you don't get power to anything. It sounds like you are saying that you get a clicking noise like either a relay is energizing or the solenoid is attempting to engage.

You can live like an NBA basketball player with that kind of change coming in around my neck of the woods. Most of my county doesn't even come close to that kind of income.

So one of the armature brushed bound up? The owners manual should have the fuse and relay layout. My money is on the starter solenoid. As I said previously......

I had a 5310. Starter problems were common on those tractors.

Talastar is just Bifenthrin. You can get it at Ag South or TSC and spray it yourself for a few bucks. I use it on off years when I don't spray Regent for fire ants.

So what'd they give away?

Eddie, you can try a section using Pramitol. Not sure what the chemical name is but I know there is a generic for it that I get at Ag South/Supply. It doesn't last forever but being a ground sterilization product it does last quite a bit longer than Roundup. I mix it with Roundup and 2,4D.

I don't see the hydro 3 PH mowers. Muthing is available in the US.

Damn the irony!

LNF, that might just be the best 600 bucks you've ever spent. The deal that I got on mine was the best deal on one until you bought that one. That's a flail of a deal.

I saw one at my dealer that just looked like a mower deck but it was an automated RC mower. Program it via GPS to do the job or run it like an RC toy. Made by a popular mower and implement manufacturer. Only difference is it was diesel. I was going to price it but I figured if I did I would...

If it was in SC it would be dead without the herbicide. No rain all month.

My 5310 wasn't an E. I know it didn't have one and it would scald your butt if you were on it long enough.

Never knew there was such a thing. That would be a big help.

One thing I did find out is that until you actually put up an 8' fence you don't realize the hurdles. The first day was pretty slow and painful. I was working alone so that com[pounded things. I think the third day a couple of my buddies came to help and we got most of it put up that day.

Allman Bros - At Fillmore East and One More From The Road - Skynyrd

We call it hog snot.

Yea, if you had corn planted on 36 or 38 inch rows that applicator would run in the rows perfectly and spray overlap was perfect. It was dead on the rate number.

Those spreaders and the tag along applicators with the John Blue pumps on them are deftly accurate. You can measure land with them when you have the correct overlaps. Of course they aren't as good as the new fangled Hi-Boys and spreader trucks they use now with all the GPS technology but they...

(y) (y)

Or, regen could have been canceled enough it won't try to regen again. I know you are trying to fix this yourself but I think you're out of luck. It probably needs to have a parked regen done by the dealer.

I was assuming he was referring to something like this.

I assume that means "power down". Either voluntarily or it will handle it for you. You should have codes somewhere.

When did we stop being able to get Landcruisers?

Dude, this is a tractor forum, chill out. There have been multiple posts about the writer's first Toyota or Ford or Datsun in this thread, including yours. No idea what your ass rub is over me but get over it.

This has turned into a math thread.

Just stop.. I added the same thing everyone else added. Context. When we talk about our favorite or not so favorite, whatever, the logical thing to do is compare it to it's competitors. I bought my first Toyo in 1976, my first Datsun in 1979. There have been few years that I haven't owned at...

Did I do something wrong? Just saying. Toyo's no different than anyone else. No better, no worse.

That sounds almost exactly like all other car manufacturers.

I pulled my torque wrench out to torque something down and it didn't work. I put it back where I found it. I spent years of torqueing bolts for work and always felt like they were too tight or too loose. I don't do it anymore.

LOL

For loader work on a non emissions tractor it really doesn't matter as long as you get enough to get ample fluid flow. It's really operator dependent and once you run it for a while you'll figure out your sweet spot. What fits everyone else may not fit you.

Plant some sweet potatoes on it.

Medical insurance plans that cover hearing aids is a unicorn. VA and vet insurance does a really good job with it and I think some of the Advantage plans cover them but besides that health insurance doesn't do a very good job covering.

So you're the one.

It went pretty well. That fence is heavy and cumbersome and is a real pain to put up but I think my project went as well as it could have. The one thing I would do differently if I did it over is just buy all 6x6 posts. I used some 4x4 to save money and though they are working fine they just...

The L&L I bought is sitting on my work bench. It's either to large to fit recessed fittings or it choses to not stay connected. I'm guessing my equipment is bigger than yours.

I would like to see if anyone has any experience with this subject. I am about to put down a well for irrigation. I want to install a balanced flow, constant pressure pump and system. I'm looking at the Gould 3 phase pump with the VFD setup. Does anyone have any experience with these or any...

We had one that did that and I would engage the PTO as the tractor started up. Apparently there was something wrong with the clutch. It would go right into ground but I only used that for spraying applications.

Power plant is where I discovered it. I keep it all the time now. It's expensive but well worth the money.

I looked at that PTO Link. For me I would have to have a setup for 7 or 8 PTO shafts. Doesn't make sense to spend that insane amount of money. And besides you still have to hook it up. It doesn't do it for you. Plus what ptsg said.

I spray mine down with Kearney Rust Cutter. Some of the best stuff I've ever used.

Same thing here. They pulled the plants and laid them on the ground. They also pulled up some late peas but not too much of those.

Yea, I have about 3 acres or so fenced with 8' field fence for the deer.

I don't either but I'm thinking an encounter or two might run them away. I certainly don't have time to cover everything with mesh. My half rows are 272 feet long.

The crows decided they didn't want me to have most of my sweet potatoes so they pulled the plants up. I have the 12 Ga. loaded now. I picked the shell beans(Bountiful), shelled them, vac sealed and froze. I got 10 quarts. Planning on planting a late crop as soon as we get some rain. Corn and...

Before you attach two wires together and power up you should figure out what they go to FIRST. You could have shorted something to ground and created another issue. It's difficult to diagnose a problem when the only clues are a red and white wire. Pics?

Point is...Toyota is no different than Kubota or almost any other manufacturer. I know that my truck was made in Indiana by Indianans. It's your prerogative to pick and chose what foreign badges you have parked in your barn or garage but owning a Kubota is no different than owning a Toyota.

I had no idea Kubotas were US tractors. Knock me over with a feather. Irony much.

My Maschio is designed to float on the lift arms and toplink.

Are you using that 53 as a commuter? :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: I had a 5310 and it DID have brake lights and turn signals.

What do you run in all your other gear boxes? Use that.

Dump it wherever you need it on a blue tarp. It's not perfect but you can get most of it up.

That would drive me nuts. That thing would have to come out. :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

We get them locally. I've seen them from Southern Exposure Seed Exchange. I'm sure Hoss and Victor have them as well. No one had any Red Jewels this year though. Those are the best Sweet Potatoes in my book..

We get the sets if that's what you mean. Plants. Whatever you call them. We got 1500.

I'm pretty late planting them. We couldn't find any sets this year. I hope these are good.

Probably 110 to 120 days here.

Corn will probably be ready next week. Shell beans will be ready before then. Butter beans will be a bit later.

Just picked up 100 Hernandez sweet potato sets. Never tried them but the red jewels couldn't be had this year.

Zoom in on the left side of this 140 and you'll see a silver serial number plate. Does yours have one of these?

Spatchcocking? I've been doing that my whole life and never heard a name attached to it. That's a split chicken to me. I've been deboning most of my chickens for quite a while now. We like that much better. Nothing like a whole deboned chicken. I still would never cook a chicken 8 hours. I'm...

The only time ag tires even remotely cause an issue is when it's wet. I never tear up turf with them turning. And they don't mash grass down as bad as turf tires do. Less surface area. Now if you are maintaining a golf course I might understand the issue.

If you can get a new 5M that size with a loader for $115K you better jump on it.

Why don't you want to drive on it? You have a tractor, use it. Get something that you can use to cut it in a fraction of the time. I've been cutting about 5 acres with my 21' FM for 10 years. I run ag tires. Never seen the issue with that setup. I would never try to cut all that grass with one...

I have Frontier 21' batwing finish mower. Probably the best implement that I ever bought.

A pyrethrin product would be good but even Malathion would probably help. I spray my entire place every year for fire ants and that pretty much takes care of most of the ground insects. Gnats and mosquitos are our nuisance. Lime in the ditches helps with the mosquitos. Not much you can do for...

That one place is definitely steep. I'm always thankful my place is dead flat.

I have one that's probably older than me that is a fast hitch for the 140s. It opens the middles to plant potatoes and digs potatoes. My wide wing plow only ever takes one pass to get all the potatoes.

What he said. When you took the cylinder off did it stroke in both directions? I suspect it is a coupling issue.

I guess I've never seen a 994 or a 997 that wasn't an R. I'll have to disagree on the quality of cut. My Kubota 1211 cuts just as good as my 9 series or 7 series maybe better.

So it does have a sump. You don't see that every day. If I had that and ran synthetic oil I may not change it but every couple of years.

6 quarts of motor oil? In a Vanguard engine? And you can change that for 15 bucks? Does it have an oil sump? Never heard of a small engine holding 6 quarts of oil.

Couple of pics of what's going on here.

It's interesting how we all do things so differently. Here in the south, we eat stewed tomatoes on rice. It's great with pork chops and fried round steak. I freeze tomatoes whole. Scald them and get the skins off and cook them just a bit before bagging and freezing. Then they can be unthawed and...

Kauai. Best vacation we ever took. Stayed in Princeville. Of course that was after visiting Maui a couple of times. If I were going just one time it would probably be Maui but I'm not sure how the fire affected everything there. If you want laid back and relaxing, Kauai hands down.

That deck pedal is a knee killer. Much longer running my 920 around my oak trees and I would have been having a knee replacement. Thank goodness for Kubota and their deck lift. Around my trees was the only place I had to get on that pedal. just cutting grass I never touched it. And I cut grass...

I have a 20 5090E. So far, so good. I love the cab and wouldn't be without it but I do miss the old open station at times. I should have just kept my 5310.

LMAO

That's a cool potato planter. Reminds me of our old tobacco transplanters.

I'm going out on a limb and say that it sounds like the OP is not AC savvy. It may be time to have someone look at it for you and at least verify things are put together as they should be.

I've been down that same road. 50 years of accumulated "stuff" that nobody really wanted with a few obvious exceptions. I completely filled a 40 cu yd dumpster and hauled scrap metal and crap from daddy's shop by the truck loads. My mom would have beat us for throwing away some of the things we...

I've never seen one go to ambient with that much pressure difference. Even if you had a blockage it should equalize in the other direction. Almost sounds like a check valve is in backwards but I don't know what that would be unless the TXV is backwards. It's really strange that the suction...

The compressor needs to run long enough to get freon into the system. You were talking about the pressures equalizing, in order to get gas into the system you don't want the pressures equalized you need the low side to be much lower so the gas will enter the low side.

8 hours? For a chicken? I guess the skin holds it together. Wornder what temp that cooks at?

At the club I belong to we do an annual scholarship tournament and give $1000 each to the selected senior at the local public and private schools. My daughter got it the year she graduated. I guess what I will say about it is that $1K is not very much money unless they are going to a tech...

What freon is the system? It sounds like you aren't making up a low pressure cutoff switch but if you replaced the entire system then it could be anything. If you jump out the clutch will it come on so that you can get some additional freon in the system?

I've read and experienced quite a bit about those models of tractors. The gauge cluster is a failure item along with starters and the cold temp thermistor.

On my 5310 it was the fuel gauge that quit. I replaced the fuel sender but that didn't do it. After I traded it the guy that bought it made the dealer fix the problem, it was the gauge cluster.

Interesting. That's my exact situation. I did consult with an insurance agent friend of mine that guided me through selecting the plans I will be signing up for and this subject never came up. I will have to ask him about this next time we talk. Thanks for that info.

I've had my Polaris Ranger since 2007 when I bought it new. I've had the usual suspension bushing replacement, CV axle, fuel pump issues that I finally resolved and of course several batteries. It's easy to work on and parts are readily available. I guess there's a tradeoff for everything.

Batteries. Yuk. I'm happy you guys like those EVs. I detest messing with batteries. That reminds me of the golf cart days and fooling with degrading batteries, acid and corrosion, distilled water and battery cables.

Kenny, I've done my due diligence on educating myself on the Medicare and SS front and already have everything picked out and arranged for January of next year. But I've never heard of the issue you bring up about Part D. I had no idea your employer coverage had anything to do with what you were...

You're gonna have to change your handle now. :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:

It looks like the handle may not be disengaging the locking mechanism. Should be easy enough to figure out.

Ah. That's not a plow to me, that's a trencher or some form of a trencher. I see those machines sell really cheap at equipment auctions around me. I saw two big diesels sell for 9K each about a year ago. One was a DW and the other a Vermeer I think. I almost bought one just because they were so...

What are you calling a plow?

You need a track machine.

The wild game won't be any different in Jambalaya than anything else. If it were me I would get sausage made from one or both of the meats so I would have that for the recipe as well. We have places here that make some really good smoked sausage from wild game. Almost every processor around here...

It's called Better Than Bouillon and comes in several flavors including beef and chicken. Comes in a small jar and is a liquid product.

Your handle is not releasing. If you release the handle and lower the blade the tines should roll around and hit the ground. Then you can dig them in and back up until they lock in place. You have to pull that handle while you lower the box. If you're doing that then something is wrong with the...

Eddie, charging those things isn't magic. For the fast chargers it probably takes at least a 70 amp circuit if not more. I think the slow chargers can be run from a 120 V outlet.

Thankfully we don't have any ground creatures here in SC. Other than moles. And they are bad this year. My ground mole dog passed away and the moles know it.

I fenced my garden in with 8' field fence to keep the deer out. Now I see little coon tracks all over. Picked up a coon trap and some sardines yesterday. I guess I'm going in the trapping business.

I do 2,5 lbs of each meat when I do it. That fills my 20 Qt black iron pot. Yea the guy that came up with this lives in Baton Rouge and cooks for large gatherings. He makes this in a big 10 gallon or so black iron wash pot.

Yea, we have been inundated with rain here. Stuff has drowned in the garden and I can't get in it to work anything. It's raining right now.

Plan G basically replaced the plan F. There's very little difference in the two.

To us in the Pee Dee and Lowcountry of SC, BBQ happens around Christmas or Thanksgiving timeframes and involves a whole hog cooked on my hog cooker with the coals of oak wood burned in a barrel. Usually takes at least 12 hours. Our sauce is a vinegar based but over the years it has evolved to...

Mathews Lawn Genie. That's a new one on me. Never seen nor heard of one of those before. Looks like a knife flail with some sort of bagging attachment. I have a Maschio Tigre 300, 10' flail that is running hammers. Pretty amazing cut. It's just not wide enough for me to use all the time so I...

Best Jambalaya I've ever eaten. Straight from a Cajun. JAMBALAYA 6 lbs onions 2 lb bell pepper 1 large jar chopped garlic 1 lb celery 10 lbs boneless skinless chicken thighs cut in half across the grain 10 lbs smoked sausage cut in ½ to ¾ inch pieces 10 lbs Boston butt to cut into...

I don't think I said what brand they are using. I have no idea what brand. I was just making an observation about those outdoor LEDs in general. I've seen those strobing LEDs multiple times in gas station canopies.

I'm going BCBS. We have an agent in town that is really good at assisting on these decisions. We looked at all of the above players as well as United and I checked into USAA. He told me basically the same as Tinhack said about Humana. We settled on BCBS because of some of the extra services they...

I notice around here a lot of the gas stations that use them have been experiencing failures. I've been to quite a few stations where the lights were strobing like an 80s dance floor. My experience has been like Eddie's. Dim, dimmer and dark.

My work isn't out my back door either. It's why I have a tank on it's own TRAILER. So it can roll down the road to where I am going to be. The "skid" tank is to keep the "trailer" tank full. But, you have to have help to get all those components to the farms you are working. I'm guessing you...

I'm in the no yard light camp. I have them in spades but I have all of them on a contactor with a switch in my kitchen so I can turn them on when I need them and also have them tied to my camera system. I don't want to light things up for any would be thieves that may happen along. You'd be...

The one he has is a lot like the Gannon Box. The one he has would be super easy to convert to hydraulic.

I have a 21 foot batwing FM with 3 of those 7' Befco mowers you mentioned. I really like them. Never had an issue. I do have all of my 12 wheels foam filled. Mine is a Frontier branded Befco.

I couldn't imagine hauling fuel 80 gallons at a time. I have a 600 gallon stationary tank and a 200 gallon trailer tank. When I empty the trailer tank I just refill it from the big tank unless fuel prices are down and I'll have my supplier come fill it.

I'm far from having it all figured out but I'm certain we will be okay. I may do a bit of side work for the company I work for now. One job each outage season would be good with me.

Just curious. I'm on the generation side and have done quite a bit of work in Fla. I was in Gainesville not too long ago installing a voltage regulator in one of the GRU plants. If my plans work out I'm going to retire in January.

If I remember correctly, you hold the handle and drop the 3 PT. The tines will come partially down and into the ground slightly and back up until they lock into place. To roll them back up you just pull the handle with them raised and they will roll over. I had one of those that got caught up in...

Did you work for FPL?

Whoa! Gravel? Having been an HVAC contractor I would have walked the second I saw that. I ain't crawling on gravel. I put sand under my house and totally encapsulated the entire crawl space and have a de-humidifier under there. Keeps the humidity at 60% year round.

I have a 3 tractor fleet of Farmall 140s. Cole planters, fertilizer distributors for each tractor and all the sweeps, hillers and rolling cultivators. I plant on 4 foot rows and can easily control weeds and grass/weeds with Treflan and Atrazine. I've looked at the bedding/rolling implements but...

Plug weld it. I've done it many times on car panels and many other things including drums.

If you think it's rust the first thing you should do is throw that WD40 away and get something that will work through that rust. Kerners is good as is PB Blaster but there are others too.

Those property taxes are ridiculous. I sure am glad I live where I do.

You can buy the 7 round pin to 4 flat as well.

I just bought a Ram. Went to buy a new one and they had a 22 model on the lot with 30,000 miles and $37,000 cheaper. I can be hard headed but I'm not stupid.

That would be one rough pulling and riding trailer. It surprises me that it does appear to have a man tag on it because I would swear it looks homemade. If you're just puttering around with it it may be okay but for every day utility use I wouldn't want that heavy thing.

All of my mulching kits have been permanent. I guess you could take them off but you wouldn't want to. I love mulching everything.

I just mulch all of mine. Pretty amazing how they disappear.

I looked at the 994 when I bought my 1211. Never got the chance to run one. My 1211 has plenty of power. The main reason at the time I didn't get the 994 was because of the way JD does the deck lift. All the way up or all the way down to the stop. The 1211 can be bumped up and down without going...

He won't be shooting any clippings with a mulch kit on his. I wouldn't own another mower without it.

You can buy those all day for under 20 bucks. https://www.etrailer.com/Trailer-Wiring/Buyers-Products/337TC2074P.html?feed=npn&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQjwxeyxBhC7ARIsAC7dS3__ZVtKjZ19ZziopIvSqHNdIh6UEQ4_7YwFRUULaFMcDLVbHOSwE-kaArBbEALw_wcB

I enjoyed the trees up until I didn't. Most of the oaks around here are just old water oaks which is what most of these were. There were some white oaks sprinkled in. I just think I was short sighted by not removing the ones that needed to be when I had the chance to cut them down. Heck, I have...

Yes. I made a valiant attempt to save all of the oak trees around my house. Oaks shed tons of leaves which aren't very good on the roofing. They also drop tons of limbs which aren't very good on the roof. But the roots are the worse. They will tear up foundations. The limbs on my trees also...

I've learned my lesson about building permanent structures under "beautiful" oak trees. What a mistake.

I just made flat face to Pioneer changeover hoses about a foot long. I needed the extra length anyway. Since I did that I've bough two other implements that are FF.

Should be a wire on it. Pull the wire off and see if it blows the fuse. JDs are bad about the cold start thermistor going bad and it is wired into the FSO circuit.

Yea, typically they are part of the injector pump.

Sounds like maybe a shorted coil on the fuel shutoff but it could be a number of things. Not much info to go on.

I use one of these. I have one in my shop by the sink, one by the well pump and several in the house. They have large top openings that make drinking easy and I refill them from the sink or hose.

I really like my 1211. I looked at the Ferris diesel but the 1211 was a good bit less than half the Ferris price. That's as easy as picking Charles Barkley for your pickup basketball team.

On mine the brake disengages when the tractor is off. It's engaged when the PTO is off and the tractor is running.

Does it do it loaded and unloaded?

I'm guessing you bent those pushing material backward. The ones on my Hardee are bent like that and it had nothing to do with the sway bars. I adjust my sway bars so there's just a bit of side to side so I don't bind things up. One thing you could do after you get things straight is get some...

I have 3. Couldn't agree more. The 1066, 656 and 454 were the ones that were dominant in our area. A few farmers had 1466s. I have 3 140s.

Interesting voltage. I've never heard of 408 3 phase. My thoughts on the tractor driven gen is that if I'm outside cleaning up hurricane damage, I don't need to be running the gen. That's why I have a 25kW to run my whole house. Very cheap and no additional fuel. As far as the transfer switch...

Yea, when I saw that it was the first thing that popped in my head and then I read the thread.

When I shoot game birds or even deer with a shotgun I don't close an eye. My grand dad and dad taught me to shoot with both eyes open and just cover the target. Always seems to work.

You shoot depending on your eye dominance. I'm left eye dominant so I shoot left handed. I'm ambidextrous with pistols and many other things. I can write with either hand. But shooting is lefty. All of my guns that I use are left handed. Ordered or bought that way. Buy I can shoot any right...

I never knew Dickey and Cher were a thing. I know Greg married Cher but never knew about Dick.

Ah man. I hate that.

Texas is not a good place to be a rabbit I guess.

Is it rabbit season in Texas? I've never heard of rabbit hunting this time of year.

I put nitrogen to my corn yesterday. Still have one corn variety I want to plant. All the beans and peas are in the ground and coming up. Potatoes are up. Tomatoes, cabbage and broccoli are set. Turnips are planted but don't look like they are coming up. Pouring rain this morning.

How in the world do you find the time to do all the things you are involved in on a daily basis? I had no idea you fabbed custom parts for motorcycles and now I find out you drive trucks too. I had a class 3 CDL which is the same thing as that class 8 I think. I had all 8 endorsements. That...

So that makes it right? People that can't afford to pay their CC bill end up paying for Joe Shmoo's grapple from EA. That's my point.

I guess I'm lucky I'm not dead. I've been filling gas cans in the bed of my truck for over 50 years. I have NEVER heard of a static explosion with diesel nor have I ever seen the delivery guy run a static ground strap when he delivers my diesel. I've seen them run the ground strap on gas...

It was a sketchy purchase. Just because you didn't get bagged doesn't change the fact that you got taken advantage of by loaning Ted money and could have just as easily been a victim. You make a stupid purchase based on the premise that the CC company will refund your money if you get screwed...

Most people use a CC because they don't have the money to buy what they are purchasing. Otherwise CC companies wouldn't be in business. I'm pretty sure I haven't made an ignorant statement about EA or Ted. You on the other hand totally miss the point of the conversation. When you bought...

LOL. Your reasoning and mine are polar opposite. So you believe that it's okay for someone to make a sketchy purchase for the sole reason that the CC company will take the hit for them? 🫣 Oh, and your reasoning is simply because they can afford it. SMH

The end game for me was to limit or eliminate the times I mount and dismount the tractor. I had to modify any of my stuff that didn't fit and make a hydraulic setup to operate the release levers on the QH. Now unless I'm attaching something with a PTO I never have to get out of the cab. That's...

So are you saying you can't get a better tire that fits those rims? Are the tires on my 1211 the same size as yours? You answered this in your last post. LOL

Any company that works on the premise of you pay us for it and then we will order the materials to build it and build it is obviously robbing Peter to pay Paul. When I was an HVAC contractor I was victim of that on several occasions. Anyone buying something from EA should have recognized that...

I'm sure you are correct.

I can't dispute anything about EA's attachments, I don't own any. But what I will say is that I bet my attachments are as good or better than EA. EA wasn't the end all, do all in tractor implements. We'll all get along just fine without them. I do hate so many people got snookered by a crook but...

What do you need another set for?

If it's not that then the clutch apparently went out.

I had a 283 years ago. I'm assuming it's the same tractor. You didn't happen to knock the range lever in neutral? That geared tractor should go. Have you tried all the gears in both ranges?

Oh! Gotcha. Yea. It's funny how something you say will trigger them.

Why does that sound so familiar? Meaning?

It must be an older machine. I don't know of anyone that still makes a four stick machine. Imagine being used to using a four stick machine and getting a two stick. That was a happy day.

You are obviously not aware of some of the things that were going on on other media sites. There were loyalists that were downright nasty to anyone that didn't agree EA was the best thing to arrive on the implement scene. They would have and probably would still follow Ted into quicksand and...

Yea, I've never seen a place with such a cult following as that place had. If Ted flew in without getting his cape wrapped around his neck I do believe most of these drones would fall right back in his wake without any reservations.
