lol! Looks good! very subtle

Real trucks don’t have spark plugs And the best diesels don’t have glow plugs

You know everything so I’m sure you’ll be able to figure it out

Not surprised. With all the pushovers we have, it won’t be long until we start implementing rules like this in the US

Marketing? maybe... but Mac doesn’t even allow their Operating system to be sold on other manufacturers desktops/laptops. I think all the manufacturers really are left with no choice other than Windows. I know Windows is preferred for business type settings, due to the significantly lower cost...

It could be a 3/4 ton truck, but Chevy did in fact make 1500HD trucks and they are 100% 8 lug trucks All of the 1500HD models are 8x6.5" bolt pattern. The 1500 non HD is 6x5.5" pattern

Wow! Bad day for sure, glad to hear he’s ok!

Also you don’t need to boot the pc in order to try the software recovery tools... you just need a 2nd pc you can connect the bad hard drive to. Then you run the software from the good pc and point it to the bad hard drive to recover data from

Yeah the kneeling thing killed it for me. I hope the NFL goes bankrupt

Anyone have any recommendations on a good double conversion UPS?

I’m pretty sure you can sign up for the monthly membership fee, download all your pics and cancel it the next month... I was looking into this, I have a lot of old pics on photo bucket.

There are a few good data restoration companies out there ... not recommended but the last hdd I thought I lost everything on, I stuck it in the freezer overnight, the next morning I was able to copy over about 95% of all my “lost” files. The hard drive was sweating like crazy when I hooked...

Yeah boom stick = rifle/shotgun

I was wondering why people were mentioning a rounded off drain plug in the field pallet thread :LOL:

What’s so special about it? What does it do that the others don’t?

👌🏼 mint!

That’s quite the battle cry... 😂 Hopefully it’s a simple fix the dealership can remedy quickly!

Nice! I work for a place that prints banners, I can only imagine how most of them are put up for display... :LOL: I spy a baby cummins as well...

Sounds like there is either a high spot on the rotary cutter shaft itself, or the pto shaft has a burr or something in it that is preventing it from sliding all the way back to let the hole line up. I had the same issue when installing a new pto shaft on my old bush hog. I had to get out a file...

Ridiculous And EPA has guns now? What’s next....

I was just about to start this topic a day or 2 ago... we are in desperate need of a new bed I also have a bad back, and sleep on my side. Good call Pixguy

Yeah, all the 5.9 and 6.7 Cummins used by Dodge / Ram are 3 gallons oil capacity

Take a verification marker with if you’re worried about it, or look for the strips in the 100 dollar bills... but I highly doubt, someone with counterfeit bills is going to willingly bring them to a police station and go on camera handing them over to you... not to mention their name/address...

Yup, ya snooze ya loose. I’ve been beaten to lots of good deals on Craigslist... that’s just how it goes sometimes. People getting upset over missing out on a deal need a therapist, not the item you’re selling.

I’ve done a few water pumps on my old 5.9’s and my current 6.7.... I’ve heard horror stories about aftermarket units so I’ve always bit the bullet and bought oem genuine Cummins water pumps. ($200)

I’ve never bought with a check or sold with a check... bought my truck in cash from a local seller, that was the biggest cash deal I’ve ever done. I sold a Camaro to a guy who obviously didn’t trust me (I don’t blame him, everyone should be cautious). I sold it to him for around $6500 but he...

Try it on a PC or try it on Safari on your iPhone.

I haven’t had any issues with the new format. Sounds like an issue specific to your setup, try a different pc if you have one

https://detroit.craigslist.org/okl/hvo/d/rochester-exmark-lazer-series/7347992150.html Really good deal here (IMO) for this mower... they are almost $10k new. Located in Michigan (this isn’t my mower but I own the same make/model)

I took my time cutting and measuring that’s for sure. Made a cardboard template first, sealed the wood afterwards, the whole 9 yards, lol.

I just bought a 4x8 sheet of 1/2” A/B marine grade plywood for a boat project I needed to finish. $104.89 :sick:

Ahahaha :LOL:

I found the buddy seat on eBay... https://www.ebay.com/itm/143530856252 The price seems steep. For $500 I’d be rigging up some type of similar small padded platform

None, but none of my stuff sits for more than 6 months at a time nor do I buy fuel in bulk. The generator is drained and run out of fuel when not in use since that isn’t always used seasonally. In the past, I’ve used a splash of anti-gelling stuff in the tank if the temps are extremely low and...

This video is about Ram but it tells the story as to why full size pickups are so popular.

Chain it up and drag it back in the woods somewhere. If you have a large hole to fill in you could use the stump as filler

I work in the IT field and the laptop in my garage I'm using to post this is running Win XP Pro Decent! 👌 Anyone running still running Win 98 SE? 😂

I would just order it online from TSC if your local store doesn’t have it. https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/super-s-cotton-picker-spindle-grease-00?cm_vc=-10005

Awesome, never knew that! Thanks!

It would be nice to have a search option at the top once you enter a specific forum. So if I’m browsing the “New Holland owing/operating” forum I can type a few words and search that specific sub forum I’m currently looking at quickly. (Rather then visiting the search page and selecting the...

If the EPA really wanted to cut down on pollution in the air, they would be looking elsewhere at the major polluters. But the major polluters all pay so much in taxes, they won’t.

Yeah with all the terrible drivers on the road, I’m not taking any chances. Plus I use the mega cab for my dogs / snowmobiling trips. Ive been daily driving long wheel base Cummins trucks for 15+ years now, it’s not hard.

Every time someone makes a tractor purchase thread, everyone always says buy the biggest one you can afford but still fits your application. This way of thinking also applies to the trailers people use to haul their tractors around. Everyone always says buy one at least 2-4ft longer than you...

My Skidoo snowmobiles (2009 and 2014) automatically stop and restart the engine in reverse when you press the reverse button.. ingenious idea really, works great.

I always had a sports car too, in addition to my trucks. (4 Camaros and 1 Corvette - all LS1) That got expensive, specially for insurance. I decided a truck that was fast should fit the bill, and it did. Sure it doesn’t handle great, but it’s left a few sports cars in the dust. Nothing like...

I’ve always had a full size truck since I got my drivers license... it’s all I’ve ever known. I’ve gotten to be the point where I’ve found the truck that suits me best, and it was under $19k Everyone likes different stuff. I like 1000ft lbs TQ with a heated steering wheel and heated/cooled...

My exmark has a Kohler on it, no issues so far, almost 400 hours on it. I wouldn’t sweat it

Nice! I’m sort of surprised it doesn’t have a ROPS in it...

Thanks for the info on the (-) trick! Learn something new everyday...

I still browse Craigslist daily looking for stuff I don’t need... hoping to score a 2wd single cab 12 valve for cheap... maybe a tri-toon I can modify to haul stand up jet skis on... 10k tandem axle car hauler... I browse the FB marketplace too, but not quite as much as CL

I once used the Find My app to locate one of my snowmobiling friends that was stuck in the woods really late at night in the UP of MI. He missed a turn, went over a snow bank and got stuck. We didn’t notice till the next stop sign so we waited and waited but nothing. We would have found him...

Happiness to me is tons of white gold in the woods and a trailer full of Skidoo snowmobiles heading up to ride for a week in the upper peninsula of MI. Also it’s flying out to the Rocky Mountains and riding long track skidoo summits for a week in the back country.

I had a 99 Vette with a six speed that I daily drove for spring, summer and fall. 22-24 mpg was normal, I think I seen as high as 26 mpg. Loved that car, I could set off car alarms downshifting thru any parking lot. 🇺🇸

Originally I was going to just buy half of the drive shaft ($100) and the coupler for the tractor side ($65) since I already had the ujoints ($60 for both) TSC didn’t have what I needed in stock so I returned the ujoints and it was a better deal to just replace the entire assembly as a whole...

Yeah if you have iPhones you can share location using default apps installed on the phone. https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT210514 There is a similar setup for android users as well

Yeah me neither. But not with reckless, wasteful spending. The funds need to be managed properly. You know, like how you and I manage our bank accounts... but if you really want to help pay for civilization with higher taxes, you can start by not cashing your tax return check this year. That...

I'd dump that in a clear cup or bottle to get a better look from the side, It could have a big layer of water on the bottom. The color looks off to me too, could just be the picture or container I just noticed that's a 5 gallon bucket, lol. If you had some kind of clear container to put all of...

After you changed the fuel filter, have you been able to rev the tractor up all the way to max RPM at all? Or does it just stumble and want to die out? Also, how did the old filter look when it came out? And was there any water or sludge in the filter housing?

The last thing we need is higher taxes, The government needs spending reform. We need 100% transparency for all government spending.

I just upgraded my 50” cub cadet zero turn to a 60” exmark lazer z. The old cub cadet served me right and for the $3000 it cost originally, I think it was a good deal. For a zero turn on a budget, I’d get their new 50” cut model with the fab deck and 23hp Kawasaki. (My old one had a Briggs and...

You mean Yolks right? Or should we go into how to use an apostrophe correctly? 😂

Now that I read this, you’re right, I definitely don’t want to take any chances. I’m just going to buy the new pieces I need or it might be cheaper to buy the whole assembly... Thanks everyone for the responses and ideas.

Now that’s thinking out of the box ... I got plenty of feeler gauges laying around. Not sure if I’ll be able to pull it off but might be worth a shot.

Yeah I don’t have a welder myself so I’ve been trying to get a friend to help me with this but he’s been really busy with work so I’m trying to find other solutions. I definitely know the right way to fix this is to replace the warn drive shaft and or yolk, which isn’t overly expensive, but I’m...

In the process of replacing a bad u-joint / cross bearing on the PTO shaft from my bush hog. I have the correct u-joint but the caps fit just a little too loose in the bore of the driveshaft. They almost go in by hand and will spin and move around once installed. (This u-joint has external...

Unfortunately... I don’t think the government really respects the Constitution very much anymore. They’ll make a new law and deem it necessary for public health and safety. Anyone putting public health and safety at risk will be dealt with accordingly. All the sheep will flock to this new law...

Yeah I agree, however there are a lot of people that live off of handouts from the government every month... I’m sure they’d like to continue to be ‘stimulated’

Pretty soon you’ll have to show your proof of vaccination card before entering a business, getting on a flight, getting a hotel room, rental car, etc. Eventually everyone will be forced to be vaccinated or else they won’t be able to accomplish their necessary day to day tasks. And those...

What was the fix?

Sorry I don’t have the schematic but can you give us more info on the tractor? When is the last time it ran? What was the sequence of events that left it in this no spin over/ no start condition?

Nice setup! Nice Jeep too!

I won $410 two times playing 5 spot Keno at restaurants. First time was a $1 per round, for 5 rounds. Playing 5 spot, which I hit all 5 numbers one round Second time was the same scenario but but I matched 3 of 5 numbers a few times in other rounds so the payout was $420. Each time I spent a...

This is awesome, very cool! If you want to invite me over to ride sometime I wouldn’t be offended. :cool: We are just on the other side of Lapeer, in Almont.

Yeah I leave mine in as a Prius catcher. I don’t want any small cars getting lodged under my rear bumper or hitting my rear axle.

Interesting, thanks for the info about the Woods Cadet. Bush Hog never responded so I just sent them another email thru the contact us part of their website, hopefully they respond this time.

Old iPhone or iPad with no cell service (put it on the wifi and install pandora) Connect to old stereo with 3.5mm aux headphone jack This is how I use the old stereo in my garage with pandora. Works great

“Multiple studies have presented that Roundup formulation is far more dangerous than glyphosate alone...” “The chemicals added as inert ingredients are oftentimes more toxic than the active ingredients...” https://www.atraxialaw.com/news/unlisted-ingredients-roundup/amp/ I guess there are a...

Good point, but I’m pretty sure the tobacco users know the risks... roundup users, not so much

That’s a good point Richard, I never thought of that... I just checked and it looks like both models use a 21 tooth straight bevel gear connected to a 15 tooth pinion gear so I’m guessing they are meant to be spun at identical RPMs

Yeah I agree, I looked over the part list schematics on Messicks and I could not find a difference. I was hoping it would be obvious but here I am, lol. Thanks Darryle

Roundup has been directly linked to cancer. We got rid of all of all our roundup years ago. Google roundup and cancer, you can read for days on this subject.

Welcome to the site, looks like your fab skills are light years ahead of mine, lol! Just like everyone else commented, nice cab!!

I sent an email to a major online tractor parts store and this was their response "Typically R means Rear Discharge and S means Side Discharge in the equipment world" I don't think I've ever seen a side discharge bush hog... anyone have any thoughts on this?

Well, I turned my phone horizontally and all the options I wanted to see (users location, post count, tractor, signature, etc.) popped right up! Looks like by default I am getting the desktop view, just needed to rotate my phone for this extra info to be displayed. Also I have more options...

69 Camaro RS Pro touring mod with a roll cage and 2 hair dryers.

Does anyone know the difference difference between a Bush Hog RB60R and RB60S? I’ve searched all over the internet and emailed Bush Hog but no response.

They may not go all the way back down to pre-covid prices, but I’m guessing these inflated prices can only hold up as long as the building / remodeling boom is going on.

Does anyone have any predictions on when lumber prices will return to normal?

My snowmobiling setup (2012 Cummins - 23’ lightning 3 place) Need to find an equipment trailer so I can take the tractor up north...

There are legit sources... Also new research is being done everyday that is backing up the benefits of CBD. I would say if your looking to try it, definitely don’t take it for 2 days and quit, take it for 30/60 days and give it a chance.

Thanks DieselBound, if I had to guess, I’d say mine is an RB60R by comparing those link you posted and pictures/info graywarrant posted. I looked thru the parts microfiche on Messicks and I can’t find a difference between the RB60R and RB60S.

I just emailed Bush Hog about this, hopefully they will be able to tell me the difference between a RB60R and RB60S

Would the “S” in RB60S stand for slip clutch?

I got a bush hog that came with my TC45D. After a little research I narrowed it down to a bush hog rebel RB60... but I’m not sure if it’s an RB60R or RB60S? Mine has the bush hog rebel stickers on the sides, I’m not sure if rebel means it’s the RB60”R” ? I’m trying to order some parts for it...

Battery powered equipment? That’s cute! Maybe in 10-20 years the batteries will be good enough, but we ain’t there yet.

Yeah we buy all of our stuff from Medterra.com Mostly it’s stuff for our older German Shepard. It has helped his hips and back a ton (no whining anymore when he stands up or jumps on the couch) He hasn’t whined in months so I’m guessing its helping

Holyyyyy! Super lucky... I was in the woods yesterday removing trees and stumps close to the edge of the trails. I was thinking of this situation constantly and I’m starting to consider adding some type of frame and roof to my ROPS

Anytime I need a new gas can I buy one of the VP racing “utility jugs” I bought one of the Mr Gasket utility jugs and the handle is too small to easily get my paws into. https://www.summitracing.com/search/part-type/utility-jugs

My tractor didn’t have a petcock attached to the block, just a standard fitting. The hose that comes out of the new fitting I installed goes towards the radiator along the frame rail and there is a plastic drain valve spliced in from the factory. I used this drain to remove most of the...

Maybe Kymco is a decent brand, as for the rest of the knock off atv brands, not so much. As with everything in life, you get what you pay for

Whatever you do, do not buy a Kymco or any other cheap Knock off brand atv. Polaris, Can-am, Honda, Yamaha, Kawasaki or Suzuki only. CVT transmissions are fine, they’ve been using them in snowmobiles since they’ve been invented. I have one in my rzr which weighs a lot more than an atv and it’s...

Previously on the old site I used to view the site using the “desktop view” from safari on my iPhone, but since the site updated I’m only offered the “mobile view” when using safari on my iPhone. I know some sites have a link at the very bottom of the forums that say “desktop view” or “view in...

I get poison ivy and poison sumac all too often, I try to be careful but my property is loaded with PI. The PS is a little easier to avoid since it almost looks like a small tree with red flowers. This is what I use to dry it out. Spray it on the infected area over and over all day, let it air...

The setup I mentioned in the post above yours is working great, no problems and no more leaks. It was a little awkward getting the barb fitting pointing in the correct direction and getting it tightened properly. At first I didn't have much faith in it but I've worked the tractor for 5-10 hours...

Yeah I’d guess the same Helps create a suction or vacuum to lift the grass or brush up into the blades for a better cut?

Welcome!!

What part of the country are you in? Does the lake freeze up good in the winter?

Yeah 400ft lbs coming in at 2000rpm for a gas powered engine is definitely impressive. I’m guessing this is the first gas engine produced with those kind of TQ numbers. But a few small changes to a 12v would net some huge gains, probably cost $300 in parts and you could be at 800ft lbs. As for...

Ford’s new gas 7.3 is 475ft lbs torque at 4000 RPM. I wouldn’t consider 4000 ‘low revs’ A 2012 Stock 6.7L Cummins is 800ft lbs at 1600 RPM Everyone can go back and forth on this forever but until a gas engine isn’t running on gasoline, it will never be comparable to a diesel. Gasoline doesn’t...

I daily drove my 99 vette 6spd (not in the winter) What a blast, my drive to and from work was always a hoot plus 22-24mpg. I miss that car but I sold it to buy my old 2004 Cummins. As for a diesel being a bigger chore and more expensive to maintain, I have to disagree (but I’ve only owned...

I’ve been using sling straps (flat yellow 3” wide or 6” wide for semis) since I got my license. We were always off-roading and mud bogging. Too many stories about people dying when the chain breaks and goes flying thru the back window of the truck. I’ve seen a few sling straps break, normally...

Buying a “huge truck you don’t need” ... is that same thing people say when other people own a corvette? Buying a “real fast car you don’t need”? Nobody needs a corvette right? Nobody “needs” all that power but a lot of people sure do want it. Let’s face it, this is still America, we buy tons...

Yeah they stopped in 2015 Terrible mistake

Yeah I’ve towed with an LS (5.3L), towing a 2 place snowmobile clam style trailer I don’t mind them revving to the moon but when they downshift, rev to the moon and loose speed while doing it, that’s all it took me to go back to a diesel. Don’t get me wrong, I’ve had 4 LS1 powered Camaros and...

Everyone’s got their own opinions I definitely don’t tow everyday, but when I do I’m not messing around with downshifting, screaming RPM’s and being passed by grandma in a minivan going up a slight incline. I have a 2012 Laramie Mega cab Cummins with 250k miles that’s been great, I purchased...

Once you own a diesel and pull 10,000-15,000 lbs... you’ll never go back. Even in the flatlands. If you’ve never towed with a diesel, you don’t know what you’re missing so you’ll be happy with a gasser. I daily drive mine. It’s a six cylinder pre-DEF model with a few mods. It’s a hoot to...

I believe that means you have new notifications (likes, quoted posts, replies to threads you’ve posted in, etc, etc)

Id take a video of the drone the next couple times it shows up so you have proof of harassment. After that, I would be putting clear fishing line all over and hoping it gets caught up in it and goes down. If I did get it down, I’d just let it sit there and see who comes for it. Also you could...

Cooke city, MT

Try to put up some fishing line in the air, a bunch of it were the drone normally flies at. Maybe tie it between the house, trees, etc. Hopefully this will get caught up in the propellers and take it down Or get some type of net launcher or rope launcher ... even a kids bow and arrow with the...

Welcome!!

Ya I have smart TV’s, iPhones, Roku’s etc but never will have Alexa or smart locks. America is slowly becoming China. There are a few documentaries on China about this, they are scary to say the least. In China they have a social score for each citizen based off of all the data they’ve...

I took these pictures a few years ago in Shelby Twp, MI.

I switch back and forth to save money. Since I drive my truck a lot and 5w-40 shell rotella t6 is super expensive compared to 15w-40 shell rotella t4. Recently TSC had a sale on 15w-40 valvoline blue (cummins endorsed oil) for $10 a gallon... I bought all they had, lol. 9 gallons for under...

I run 15w-40 (Dino oil - rotella t4) in my truck in the summer and 5w-40 (Synthetic - shell rotella t6) in the winter. The truck definitely spins over faster and starts easier in negative temperatures using 5w-40. (2012 6.7 cummins - 3 gallons of oil) This winter I switched out whatever oil...

Very good points, being from Michigan this is something I completely forgot to mention.

Oh that’s awesome! That was one thing that was eeking me.

Glad to hear it’s working for you Dougeye! One of my Co-workers started taking the CBD drops and completely 100% was able to stop taking this medicine for diabetes. His doctor was confused and asked how he did it. When he explained CBD oil the doctor was dumbfounded. CBD oil is great, but the...

Change is the only constant As they say... “adapt or die” I did prefer the old view when I hit new posts or today’s posts because more topics would fit on my phone’s screen. I don’t use any apps, just view the desktop version of the website on my phone. Otherwise it looks great 👍🏼

I just checked the parts fiche and your right, my tc45d uses the SBA 198416630 as well It looks like the low oil mark is 3/4” (0.75”) up from the bottom, and the full mark is 2 1/2” (2.5”) up from the bottom

This is what I ended up using to replace mine, got it from the Amazonians So far so good but I havent really used the tractor yet since the install The stock setup leaked while just sitting in the garage and this one hasnt yet, time will tell

Hello Everyone! I just picked up a 2000 New Holland TC45D w/ 16LA loader from my good friend / neighbor. I'll be able to post up some pictures of it after I have over 3 posts, so I'll update this thread with pics soon. It will be used it to clear down trees in the woods, bush hog the field...
