I use them for shop rags. Then I use for grease rags. After that, I use wire to keep them wrapped around a stick and use them for arson. Really, setting brush piles on fire. Greasy rags make a good torch. My brother had an old heavy duty jacket that was past it's usefulness. Finally ended...

Why do you want to add electronics when a manual shut off is the bomb?

The conversion really helped gas mileage. I could get 20 with mine on a highway trip. Hard to get 10 with full time.

Doesn't mean it's holding. Normally closed is how they work. So it's held open while running. So as it gets weak, more shut offs....

Them absolute auctions burn folks sometimes.

No TV since 2000. Late night AM talk radio is where it's at.

AM late night for me.

I was at a shop. They do cars. Had a 68 firebird, Corvette modern engine, computer. No glass in it. Sanded primer outside. Milk crate for a seat. No interior at all. Said he had 64,000 in it right then.

I've found the problem on those. I put a new ring and pinion, didn't bust the case. You didn't do anything to cause this. What I have found is some extra pieces in there from the factory. There is a little pocket in the diff that stays full of oil, thrown off the top of ring gear. Pinion...

White meat here.

I worked at a dealer. Tractors came in crates. Guy put 5 or 6 together a day. Sometimes more. 4wd came with front ends apart. Loaders on all. Kubota and new Holland.

Don't put coolant yet. Put a cup of dishwasher soap and clear water and run that a while. That will clean it out. Cascade type powder for a dishwasher does not foam. Drain and flush. Then, after thermostat is in correctly, add your coolant mix. Put your battery in a plastic battery box...

Those gold colored ones won't hold up. 8N needs an orc to make it function close to a modern tractor, which have them inside. Or hydraulic.

I don't know what that is.

No, it would make the tractor shaft more longer, so the short pto shaft would be more likely to work.

We had electric around a 40 acre garden and a butane gun blasting away at night. Plus we had a two story barn with windows and army cots up stairs. Spotlight shined real good out them windows.

Deer can jump a 12' fence easily. Seen it many times.

Tecumseh engines, the problem with them was the governor. That's why they were always go cart and tiller engines. I do have a rider here with a Tecumseh on it, given to me, and I plan on getting the dying quivers out of. Once it swarms, it's done. Go to harbor freight and get a new engine...

Normal behavior is to act like a normal backhoe. I use a three point type, a caterpillar and a John Deere, they all perform the same. In fact, three tractor type I use on occasion, all work like big machines do. The only one I kinda dislike is a three stick cat with foot pedal swing. They...

8N and tiller should never be on the same property. PERIOD. Needs an overrun clutch on the pto in order for the pto to be useful. The old small pto was fine, I wouldn't have wasted the time, money, effort to change that out. I don't care if it was free, I don't care if they paid him to take...

About the worst we ever did....we had an old Willy's pickup around the house. It was 4x4. Me and my younger brother would slip off in it sometimes, go fishing. Made sure we parked in exactly the same place when returned. Dad never said anything, maybe he knew. But, he never took the keys...

Could be a bad crimp on a main bat cable somewhere. It will carry a little voltage but give out when demands a lot of voltage. Seen folks spend a lot of money, and that was the problem the whole time. Seen it numerous times. It's the first thing I check.

Just chain the bucket up to hold it up. Put some tape on the valve handle and don't use that handle. All should do just fine. Or, you can take the loader off, it's useless anyway.

I'd do a compression check next. Good, continue onward. Bad, look into why it is bad.

A good pair of big vise grips, clamped on there for you to use for a handle, makes that sharpening go a lots better. Work that magic.

Really, the blade has so much leverage on the bolt, that's what makes it take and keep all you loosen. It was quicker to treat them all as bad. Them folks was paying me.

Better situation than that. I have a retired fella that has a fish camp and fishes all the time. He has old chest freezers that are full of water and have aerators in them to keep fish alive. Several 55 gal drums with holes in them, on swing booms alongside his fish pier. He can provide a...

I always took a high lift jack and jacked hog up. Put jack stands under it. Then put a bottle jack under the bolt head, to keep it in position. Then went down from top and took nuts off blade bolts. I'd jack it up the same way and sharpen blades with them on. I'd use vise grips to give me a...

Also folks, I have run across left hand threads on some blade bolts. Something to watch for. I worked at a tractor place so old they still had new bows for covered wagons. Wooden coils for model T's, spark arrestor. But I hardly ever removed blades. If I had a pair of vise grips and a small...

Put a jack under head of bolt and push it up. You loosened it and the shoulder that keeps it from turning has dropped down out of its position.

As many as I could. I didn't keep a one of them. They went to another guy putting on a fish fry for his church.

Just finished cleaning 300 lbs of fish. I'm taking a break.

I wouldn't get hung up on what the brand is. You'll find out one day ordering parts. I had an old one like that and it worked just fine. Looked just as fine as that one.

I don't use my fireplace in winter because I'm out a lot, and I have a good dog.

I don't think it ever brèaks down, it just gets contaminated. So keep it clean with filters. Keep the water out. I give this opinion based on experience and schooling.

I have never changed it. Reason is, every time I check it, it looks clean. It must have an air filter that works good. I'm talking 15':acres around here.

We had two 317 ? 318 ? John Deere mowers around here. Used them like little tractors. Run all around here. On a real working for profit farm. Handy as a bag of chips. We put a new engine on one. They were both horizontal shaft.

I was given one in 1999 and have used the coon dog crap out of it. Bush hogged and cleared land with it. Hacked briar thickets down, backing up and making full speed runs at 7' tall brush, clearing acres. Mowing trees down that raise front wheels off the ground. Never even changed oil in it...

No, I don't jump to conclusions. As long as we straightened things out, I'm good.

I had a light stroke and heart attack a few years ago. Don't knock it till ya try it. Memory affected the most. For a couple years I couldn't remember names of people I'd known all my life. With them standing there beside me.

Dollar Tree bought Family Dollar in July 2014.

The unicorn is finding one the man bought new and kept parked in a building. I found one of those. It was a front distributor, all original, ran good. Even had the glass on the bottom of air filter. I had a 33 HP diesel, Ford 1900. That 8N would overflow a 6' box blade. The diesel tractor...

We have Dollar General on one half of an open store and the other half is Dollar Tree. So someone owns something for them to coexist simultaneously altogether at once

Just get a sleeve if you just have to. Ours never had one, ain't one on it now.

These two hardly ever get put in 4x4. Only in a very wet condition going straight. Then directly back into 2wd. And yes, they are worked a lot. Never any trouble.

I've had up to 5 of them 8N tractors at once. Never had a problem.

Who owns Dollar Tree? Dollar General owns them.

We kept two of them around here for years. Couldn't have enough tractors and trailers when we cleaned out chicken houses. They would pull a good sized trailer too. We checked dealerships and found a new deck for one. The other worked fine, so we had a parts deck. Tough little machines.

I just looked it up using the same information I gave you. Rubber Tracks Wholesale 346 438 6252 There's a couple more places around Jacksonville.

Not ones that sell tracks. He is the importer.

The Spanish guy down in Florida is the best. If you get any from somewhere else, they got them from him. Emilio, Eliano starts with an E.

You can repair it with a kit. Pay attention to what you're doing and swap the internals out. Should work like new.

I'd probably come over and weld it for free. One person out spreading good about you is worth more than multiplied thousands spent on advertising. Them people that have to get paid for every move they make, tend to not move that much. I see them, waiting on that next big job, five states...

And if you cut the new one off, those pieces can be welded onto the short one too. I don't want to hear any naysayers. I've extended several shafts.

Post cards, index cards, paper that thickness works good.

I worked on an old lady's house. She had a 1977 Chevy Luv 4x4 sitting in the driveway. Hadn't run in years. My brothers FIL had two early 80's Ford Rangers, both were diesel. I would be surprised if they would pull the hat off your head. I rode in them.

I always wanted to try some of them JC Whitney engine rebuild pellets in a can.

I'm thinking he is talking about the bar that goes in between his two lift arms. With a pin on each end and holes down the length of it.

I run old gas too. Runs fine.

Looks more like you look stupid to pass on it.

Get a ball with 5/8" to be safe. Holes in a cat 1 bar are not too big. I know 5/8" works because I've used one.

Yep the can fuel is good. You won't have carb troubles with it. Even if you just use can fuel once in a while, it's good for your machine. I sent six crews out a day. They burned 5 gal of two stroke each day, per crew. I'd try to mix them one 5 gal can of tru fuel a week. Cut my two stroke...

Let him continue to enjoy that tractor. Maybe 4500 in excellent condition. I don't care if it has air conditioning.

Main alarm bell I see is the tractors location. It isn't close to me.

I've seen them before. Used to be an old water pump around here that had one on it. You could run it either way by turning gearbox around. I have seen them in other places. I would check Surplus Center for gear boxes first. I have also seen 3 speed truck transmissions run backwards to...

Check your trash,bit stays there a while. Check your sent messages.

Or put a couple of buckets of water in the front. Need a place for my fish anyway.

I never run out tractors over 1600. Cuts hay just fine if you have the horsepower. Just because someone says 540 don't really mean anything to me. They do have gearboxes like you want. But they mount on the equipment, not the tractor.

Make sure it doesn't say 40 psi when seating beads. My brother exploded one airing it up that much. I was there. Sounded like a bomb went off. Blew tire up like a balloon, was not fixable. He left the shop, wasn't in sun three minutes, boom !!!

I bought a brand new Big Tex dump trailer, biggest they had. Extended the sides so it measured 40 cubic yards. Took off to Florida after a hurricane. I had all that door latch mess tore off on the second day. Used a ratchet strap ever since. I never ever would expect warranty to cover that.

Agree with no more than half full. If you put too much it will push it out. A third to half should be fine. I deal with lots of gear boxes. I checked 50 boxes a month ago. Make sure your vent is clear.

I don't have a book with mine either. Tag faded off. I just go to the lawnmower place, which it's bigger than a parts store. Lay my spindle on the counter, they hand me a new one. Of course, it's over an hour away in Texarkana, but, they got the goods.

Somebody else got this dog. It was too much responsibility, so they gave her to me. We have the same birthday even. This is the only small dog I have ever had.

I don't know how you people can like dang animals so much. Meanwhile I'm in the bed, it's 4 am, a 5 lb teacup Yorkie snuggled up with me... I wish you the best with your pup

I have a racing flag on mine. Makes it go faster.

Is the tractor an R or a Series II ? And it has the aux pump that is driven by rear of camshaft ? First guess is your relief. It either blew or more likely got trash iñ it. Probably happened on let down of trailer. I love them tractors. Only complaint is the reverse. Low reverse too slow...

1"-2" ? Sounds like a bush hogging job. Will be easier than cutting thick grass.

My mother just broadcast some seeds in the back yard by hand. Grass came up just as good as with all that tractor work. Run a 14' disc over it lightly, seed roller. So now we just spread seeds. Comes up just fine.

Could be something broke and 4wd isn't really working. Lock it in, raise it up, turn wheels by hand, rotate them.

We plant winter grass each year.

We have one on a Suzuki samurai, 87 model deer hunting rig. Stock tires and all. Winch does fine.

KISS method. Learned in military.

Looks like tuffline, or Monroe Tuffline. Disc is an offset disc. Tuffline box blades had that type of hitch. Their stuff was yellow also. But, just a guess.

1 - 2 inch trees? I've done that with a riding lawn mower. I've done a lot with it. "Oh it's bad for your mower", save your comments, the mower is 24 years old. Still runs and cuts fine.

Yep, I used to build houses, had three going at a time. Had three five man crews. So glad to be out of that. One or even two man jobs are good.

I honesty think it was a bad idea back then. And, you probably didn't see any that were not already converted over to selectable hubs. I had a nice 75 swb Chevy pickup that was full time. I got better gas mileage with it on a tow bar behind my 75 ford hiboy. I made a few 300 mile trips with...

Held it from the top. You can grab a beam in your shop or I had an A frame. Put a jack under rear of front half. I had an engine crane that folded up. I took it apart and used the square base, with four casters, put a jack on it and put it under front of rear half. Rolled the back half to...

The 203 came with full time hubs, so engaged all the time, like a tractor. 203 had differentials in them. I have maybe 20 of them laying around here right now. Direct coupled and independent configurations. My brothers tractor has high and low range. Rabbit and turtle switch on dash, in...

Tractor will be fine. Cut all them little trees down. Never had a cut off tree hurt a tire. I would go to town on it. I've cleared a lot of land, contracting the jobs. A good bush hog and some of them mud grippy tires, you'll be unstoppable. If in any way I think I can do with a tractor, I...

203 had a differential, you had to buy an eliminator kit to run 2wd. I have a brand new kit. 205 was a gear drive.

Really most people bought a smaller tractor and got 4x4 so it would push and pull like a big one. We have 100+ horse tractors, 4x4, and hardly ever use 4x4 unless it is a straight line pull. Like pulling something out that's stuck. Dozers, dump trucks, log skidders. I mean hardly ever.

The New Process 203

This is for everyone. Check your hoses, all hoses, for tightness. I've worked on a lot of Kubota engines that were not near that hot, cracked head every time. I have put on several. From owners that the temp showed hot, shut it down, still ran good, but would not start up again. I have also...

Main thing chain link is hard to pull up and get it in the concrete. I'm talking when concrete is wet. I've poured thousands of yards. Re Mat in the mid area and re bar around the perimeter. I say a big fat NO to cyclone fence. If he has chain link to burn, it won't last but a few minutes...

Just take the solenoid out, take the plunger off and install back in the pump. Back your idle down low enough so you can kill it. If you don't back the idle off, you'll have to snuff the air to kill it. Or check if there is a killer on the side of the pump for the old style red knob pull...

Lot of auto parts stores do hydraulic and AC lines now. If they do in my po dunk area, they probably do in yours.

Buy a new muffler. Use the bottom pipe off old muffler on the new muffler. Do it all the time. I just buy one that looks sorta close at a farm supply. Send it through the adaptation committee to get ratified. Bolt it on.

I have never tig welded. Had people tell me I'd be good at it. Never had the opportunity.

I've worked on and used some graders. Aggravating when the blade don't hold and the steering don't work. Does it have a gerotor valve on the hydraulic steering or a regular steering box with a directional switch like a ram assist steering? Do you know whether or not piston seals are leaking...

Get the book out and make sure all belts are correct length. Sometimes two are different. Roll them out on the ground and measure each one. Make sure you have been sold what you need.

Is it missing?

Yep, start in neutral and make sure it runs good. Kill it and put in gear and start again, holding pedal down. Drive it around varying throttle and keep clutch pedal down until it breaks free. I deal with that often.

I use a bottle of implement lube.

I put a 1 ton rear and a lot of springs in my truck. I already knew about cracking and bending. I used four pieces of grade 10 all thread, gold, 5/8", on each side. Never had a problem after humpteen jillion miles. Had me self a one ton 4x4 after that, dually.

I have brazed many things with a brown clothes hanger. We wrecked a truck once. Bent the frame pretty bad. Got another truck. Cut old one off. Cut other frame in same place. Welded the frames together in a pasture outside Choctaw Oklahoma. With a torch and brown coat hangers. Never...

Nice when you're stuck. I've been around one. Blocks under the lift, push down, wheels come up, block under tires, sit it down and drive out. That was the first one I had ever seen.

Sounds like you had "one of them days". I use a hi lift jack. I'd like one of them aluminum floor jacks. I have big floor jacks, but no shoulders around here. I like dirt free wheels. Texas has nice shoulders. Some times I go there just to have a flat because it can be such a wholesome...

If it has a plug, it was cast for it. But if you drill a thin area and try to thread it, not so good. Really, them castings are thin, maybe 1/8" or 3/16" and that will not hold threads. He might be lucky and find an area cast for a plug that wasn't used.

Yeah, but you live up there in the harsh winter areas. I was going to mention those type chains, look like a chain net you put around your tires. I can see that those are better. I've only seen them on Russian and German videos. Didn't know the ouch price. But, on hills combined with ice...

I don't think that case will handle using a bolt. I'm sure you can tap it very easy. But I've seen problems arise when removing and installing the plug. It may work a few times. I like more long term fixes myself. I've worked around them a lot. Like I said, drill the top and add a...

Okay, thanks. I use the other you mentioned on radiators.

Splines is what kills you on getting one made. Big Dutchman makes axles. Machine shop in Crossett Arkansas can make them. Not much to Crossett but a very large paper mill is there, so good machine shop is there. You can call Fallin Tractor and they will find if any dealer has an axle on the...

What about the silver solder that comes in little flat bars ?

A smooth chain is better than no chain. V Bar chains really do good on ice. On vehicle tires they usually have cross chains every fourth link of side chains. You can get more cross links and put a cross every two side chain links. You may can buy them that way. I have several sets but have...

Every body is liars or just the people that have hay? People that don't have scales can only say what the book says a bale weighs. Plus, in your own statement you told us what the YouTubers bale weighed but no mention of what it should weigh. No different than he was driving 37 miles an hour...

Usually a short or an overload.

There is a shop here that makes steel lines. Just had a bunch made for a log skidder. You can imagine the lines on it. Had one made for a manure spreader too, lately. They all fit just like they should.

Whichever end is easiest.

That's too simple.

Put valve stem on bottom and take core out. When it gets flat, air it up and let it go down again, till it's might near empty. That's how the tire store does it.

The only problem with that is the aluminum case. Now, if you had a threaded boss made of steel, with threads on inside for your drain plug, and threads on outside for your case, that would work. Or, you can just put a hole in the top, get a barb fitting, and get a plastic reservoir off another...

Around here a two bottom break plow, the most is 250. A double disc break plow is 350. But, if you go walking speed when plowing, a flat breaker should do fine. Speed is your enemy. My dad and brother both have the speed gene. Ive seen them snap plows in two, so quick they didn't even bend...

I deal in them old implements. I have never had one they can't sell me parts for. Just measure the bearings, axle, disc, hubs, whatever you want. Make that call to a parts place. There's a 14' disc I'm pondering now. I bought a baler from him already.

Why don't you just gamble on charging what you have and seeing if it t works ? You can hit a few pawn shops and get a manifold and a vacuum pump. Buy some refrigerant and get after it. Just me in this po dunk hick area, i have five vacuum pumps and two guage sets. Everything is either yard...

I love two bottom plows. One saved my life one time. I had this old junkified 8N that you couldn't even look at without a pair of pliers and a screwdriver in your pocket. I walked by it one day and thought to just bump the starter to see if battery was hot enough to even try to use it...

I thought it was Can't Remember Pooh, thought he was being nice about it.

My brother was on the road one day. Has a diesel tank in the bed. Nozzle handle come unaloosened and when it fell over side of truck, hit the valve stem and broke stem off. Insta flat. He couldn't get his spare out either. Finally cut the cable. I saw it had a thing like goes on lug nuts...

I figure if I buy a battery with the 3 year free replacement, I'm good if it lasts 3 years. If it lasts longer, it's just a free charge. I found an old optima in a junk pile of batteries at a shop I attended. It went out of date Sep 2008, charged it, been using it since 2015. I have another...

Take the bearing and the race. You should be able to get numbers off of something.

A class 3 hitch? I can't count how many trees I have pulled out of the ground with mine. 8" tree might take two yanks, but they all come out. And that's with my vehicle. Don't get me started about the tractor. I'll jerk a 12" tree with it. Just tie on as high as I can reach. First pull...

You sure you didn't mislocate them hoses you had off?

I just put an engine in a Supra. Man's niece bought it in 86, I think. I remember her getting it. I was in high school then, she was a year older. But they drove it 60k, never raised the hood. Rod popped out the block. Bought one of them engines from Japan. Inline six. Car had been...

Driving a Kubota down the road is like watching paint dry. Or watching the grass grow. Like going to town on a riding mower.

Seen too many need that three wheeler clutch replaced on them there Hondas.

No, the downside is Honda is at dealer getting a new clutch pack.

Painted letters with a brush. I had old tractors with brush marks. You could tell as it was fading away. Just paint hood or whatever, paint raised area with a brush. Easy.

My uncle was was digging near Shreveport of all places. Found a 15' rock. They put it beside the pond, it had a flat side on it. Rocks can show up anywhere.

Not beefy enough then. Weak components. That should not happen. Maybe an upgrade will be offered soon. Kubota parts may work but they aren't cross listed on the parts.

Are they plastic? Or just not beefy enough?

Ive known three people trying to save an arm for over a year. Because oil or grease injected in finger or hand. It's a bad deal.

Gears shouldn't break. Never seen or heard of that.

You have to put a piece of pipe over the post because they collapse pretty easy. Now if you get a piece of pipe, cap one end, put a piece of chain on it, so you can pull it off pipe, saving getting off tractor. You, sir, will be cooking with grease. With that pipe, you also can kinda bang it...

We always take ours off beside a pole on the barn. Come along hanging down from top. That way it's standing up and very easy to hook up. I thought everyone did it that way. A tree works. Set a cross tie and that works. Probably the fastest thing I can hook up.

What's your battery voltage? Have you checked it while running? Does it hold after you kill it? Sounds like you found your problem.

Ourn has an air charged water extinguisher on it. It's a big extinguisher, we top it off each time and air it up. Our first baler had burned up and was re done in the past. Our neighbor bought it that way. It had rolled off a levy on the red river while on fire. I'll say right now, that was...

Also on a deutz one of them plugs could blow out in a head and cause smoke and runs fine.

Sounds good. We just run old John Deere balers around here. Mainly because a dealer is handy. Not very many grease fittings. There was an attempt at an automatic oiler, but it's just in the way now. We oil it ourselves. Did put new belts, that always helps. We still use string.

We have a Kubota dealer in town. Been there since 1944. Same people own it. They won't sell or touch a baler. They were Ford, then New Holland/Kubota.

I think you can get your money back on any skid steer.

Stay away from def first year. Had bad experience.

On baler rollers pop the seal out and put mostly grease, little air space. You'll find when you first open them that it's mostly air with a little grease space. Or you can make a vacuum chamber out of a gallon pickle jar and lube them that way. It also helps to keep a digital laser...

They'll also sputter if the seat is dirty or if that little spring is not right on the float.

I have lived my life with junk. Never have I had to take an injector pump off. I have one that is a 1958 model, and diesel. It has never been off. You have a glow plug problem or a starvation problem. I don't think it's the shut off. But you can pull it and take the plunger off and install...

I've taken new ones apart and saw little grease.

We have one just like it. You can save money and do that service yourself. Be careful raising the back to get to radiator. Look at how the hydraulic cooler sets in there. Very good machine. You'll like it. Grease the tension pulley on the belt drive. Drive chains on each side run in oil.

Check the fuse.

There could be something to it.

I don't know how many days I was fishing and chomping on a lead weight like it was bubble gum.

I welded a piece of pipe across under them and put the bolt through. That was over 20 years ago. Tractor still runs great.

Yep, but you have to have something to bend it with. Or you could just replace the axle tube. Or look around for some used heavier axles and replace them. You can sell your original axles too. I plan on using this red axle.

But knowing me, I'd fill them tubes and use weights too. Plus something heavy on the rear. Dare anybody to mess with me. I'd probably be crying when I got stuck, though.

I don't want to know some things in life.

I never had a bathroom problem until I had my first colon scope. Things got dicey for a while after that. The warning was not there. You gotta go right there and then. It's been about a year, pretty much back to normal.

No voluntary off roading. I try not to ever. Mud holes and come alongs don't have the same appeal that they used to. I could get by with chap stick, aspirin, and antacid tablets.

Tubes solve so many problems.

My uncle built them for years. Just used a cable to pull weight up, free wheel down. Simple and worked flawlessly. Made wood splitters out of the same rig. Worked like a pulpwood truck cable loader. I don't see how you can fast drop with hydraulics. Why cross ties? I work thousands of...

Easier to list what I don't carry. I keep a suitcase, cold weather gear. Coveralls, gloves, watch cap, thick socks, change of clothes, blankets, in case I find a stranded parent with kids, which I have. Take it out in hot weather. Another case, change of clothes, all PPE gear, welding caps...

I live in Arkansas, I know just what you mean. I knew them all too. It is a blessing. It really took me about three years to get over that sickness. I feel 100% now. Hang in there and push it every day.

A good GN trailer weighs about 6k easily.

There are still a few around here.

It depends on what you're towing with. It could be a Subaru Brat for all I know. If it's a half ton, spring over shocks help. Air bags help. Helper springs help. Overload springs help. 3/4 ton should handle all you mentioned.

Man, if you have one for just a few days, it is tremendous. Turn off your power for a few days when you get a chance.

We fence creek bottoms with t posts and have cattle in there no problem. Continue on as normal. We run over 3,000 head. No fence problems from a creek bottom.

Drum roll up door is what it's called. They also have some that roll up, but they hinge once halfway up, and the door folds out as it raises. Whole thing mounts on outside surface of wall. Poultry supply for those.

They don't suck in on me. I always take Schrader valve out. Use a rubber tip blower. I use starting fluid on tubeless tires with reckless abandon.

Put some liquid soap around bead area. Makes it work better. Do not use hand cleaner.

Or like a brick delivery trailer.

It was 55 miles one way to work. Drove my 76 there and back, seven years straight. Six days a week. Only changed a battery and didn't need a wrench for that. I finally had to put a wrench on it, because I hit a place where they replaced a culvert. Blew a tire.

It's all fine and dandy until an EMP or solar flare happens.

There were spots that it was 1,000 miles to town either way.

Yes the long tiller is actually a Balkan tiller. Parts are available. We've had one since 79 or 80, still going strong. If you can't find it, let me know and I'll look through my avenues. I've looked before. It is not instantly available, but it is available. Them are heckuva tillers.

Anything not clear, not white, will hold up.

So it's 2 5/16" not 2 7/8". Glad there's not a new size out there.

I always had a fuel pump, and other gadgets with me. Drove a 75 model all the way up in the Arctic circle in Alaska. Left out of north Louisiana.

Not 2 5/16".

He may have a flip flop winch.

Don't the Honda use the same clutch as an old three wheeler? I've heard of problems. Like it ain't enough clutch for real use. My dad bought a belt drive in 07 or 09, thousands of miles per year on the farm. Pulls 16' trailer you can haul a truck on. Still the same belt. I know "if the...

I got tired of putting it back in every morning.

You need that. It holds the water in.

My old co worker neighbor friend, my dad's age, drives a 97 f250 super cab, 4x4, 7.3, and had 500,000 on it a decade ago. Dallas TX is probably 5 hours away. If he goes to see his daughter in Dallas, they go in that truck. Only thing ever happened, he had to put a vacuum pump on it. Besides...

I have an 01 7.3 F350 4x4 dually with 97 k that I'm gonna sell. It's running behind me, I just cranked it to let it run. It's reg cab, auto, flat bed. Haven't been on the road in years. It needs to go, I don't need it.

69, tank in the cab? I love them 67-72 trucks. Really up to 79. I don't know if anyone sells an in cab tank. I have a few good ones. 19 gal tank? I still drive them things too. I have a 1976 F250 licensed. I t needs a set of springs, many leaves broke on rear. Next up I have a 1970 F250...

Really depends if it has spray can foam or true tire fill. Anyway I'd put several screws in that rim. Because if you just put a few, and it slips, fixing that will be bad.

It is foam filled. There is no air, just foam.

His problem is that it keeps grabbing. Goes with clutch pedal depressed.

Crunchy are best. We can agree on that one.

Wow, I will say right now, I appreciate each and every one of you contributing to this wonderful discussion. Finally, after all this time, this website is becoming the place for the exchange of ideas. It don't get any more American than that. Keep them coming. This is so valuable. Anyone...

Known some smart alky haul it's too. A real fart smeller he was.

So when I'm on a job with a crane swinging a load of pipe over me and the crane operator is a dope head. I have had many log trucks full of logs picked up by crane. Whole load at once.
