Thanks Clover...copied and pasted that link and ordered myself a set. Appreciate the help in the search. Greg

Cover, can you give an amazon link please? I get everything else "but" those particular grips. I tried numerous styles of searches - tech spec, hith fusion, etc., etc., but on amazon if you don't word it "exactly" you end up looking at everything "but" what you want. Thanks, I'd really like...

Clover, I sure like those kick pads and that thought! Where did you source the pads from and what are they called? Thanks Greg

Thanks for that description Hunt, think I'll try that next time I cook a bird.

Hunt, Welcome back! I don't know what "spatchcocked" turkey is but that sure looks delicious!!

Good well detailed write up! Glad you got it fixed and all back together.

Great job at refurbishing; it does look like a brand new unit!

As others have said Kuhn is a know, reputable brand. Check gearbox oil for the amount and color (water contamination) and tines - although they can easily be replaced. If worn doesn't always mean lots of hours, could have been used in dry hard soil; my experience. But the picture looks like...

That's some good creative out-side the box thinking! You're right, often the need for 4 remotes is seldom so what you came up with fits the plan just fine! Thanks for sharing.

oosik, Scary situation you just described!! I'm glad that it was only your Carhart coat that got sliced - not your chest! Stumbling happens, just don't want it to happen with a sharp heavy blade is on the topside. Glad you are okay! Greg

Torvy, If they are available as an option I'd sure get them! I have 3 on mine and haven't "yet" used the third set but if I ever need it I know it's already there and available. Any piece of equipment that uses a set of remotes I can use. Provides equipment buying options. Buy once, cry...

aczlan, yes you are right, but, that is only "IF" you happen to be able to find a shop that does that sort of work anymore! Nowadays it's pull out and replace - not repair - at least in my neck of the woods.

Scotty, I know it looks strange but I think that it serves a purpose and the only down-side is that it makes any radiator repair/replacement more difficult/expensive. In fact probably much more expensive to replace!

That is a "Mighty-nice" looking machine!! Enjoy running it and keep us informed as how it satisfies you.

TractorTYMe, Man I am so sorry to see that!! Nice pole shed, nice car and nasty pine causing troubles! I can't really see if the car escaped damage or not but that is a nasty mess to have to deal with. It's gonna give you some tractor time with your grapple at least.

Very nice looking new machine, enjoy!!

I agree ovrszd, Your Grandson is an "Artist" and I will never be! That weld is a genuine work of art that will never be performed by me! Kudos!

jigs, If you're talking to me; I do have a power beyond valve installed in my main loader valve and have full hyd power to the rear end. I also have a 3 spool valve set-up for my top n tilt. I'm interested in the main loader valve because at that $106.00 price it would be good to have one on...

Same sentiments as ovrszd from me! I "always" loved reading his posts and about all the neat things he was getting done. He gave me great advice on how to "correctly" learn to operate a box blade. Although that learning is still a constant test every time I use it!!

Thanks Jigs, I'm going to look into that!!

I always read and valued his thoughts/opinions and hope that he's only moved on, rather than has deceased. Diamond Pilot is another that's not been here for quite awhile and is missed.

Jiggs, Can you give a link to the ebay seller please? At that price I'd for sure get one for on the shelf! I've replaced my 273 loader valve once already and it was a "chore" to find the proper valve! Of course this was during the pandemic period which only made things much harder to...

Thanks RandyT, Guess I could have eventually puzzled it out but you made it simple. Appreciate it.

tact, Please school me, what does CHMSL stand for? I have a '99 ram 1500 and the only water leaks thus far has been the heater element. i'd like to be aware of any other possible locations.

Good question jigs, Sorry that I don't have an answer for you but I will sure be watching to see if anyone does know. I could do some patches in places myself.

It did for me and I'm glad it also helped you. Since I've started paying close attention to how level it's sitting I haven't had any more of "that" problem. I've had others but they are simply that my machine is getting old (like me) and weird quirks pop up now and then, but she still works...

4570Man, Sorry to see and hear that!! What a bad, shi##y day. Stuff sometimes happens that just shouldn't!!

yes Green Acres, After I started paying close attention to the levelness at which I had it -- it quit spitting out hydo fluid. I apologize for not closing out that question originally. Went back and looked - yes I did! See post #14 , 2 posts up and I answered.

Thanks 3gunr, I'll try raising the front more than I usually have it set at and see how that works. Appreciate the suggestion.

I second Slowpoke Slim, Send a few dealers to southern Ca too please!!

Yes Rob I realize it's a field mower and I am mowing fields with it -- I just wondered whether it was something I was doing wrong in forwards operation that was the main cause. I have learned to live with it, I just "thought" it was supposed to skid on top of the ground rather than dig into it...

Spyderlk, Not really, my BB60 is about 1-2" wider than my rear wheels and it will gouge (rather than slide on top of) the ground even if I'm going straight. I need to be "constantly" keeping eyes on it to not have it snag a chunk of ground. However if I cut going backwards it does just fine...

grs and halftrack, Thanks for that info next time I'm at home depot I'll get one. I've never looked for one before, now I know where to do so.

Grsgreat, I don't have problems with my oil filter but I do like the wrench you show. Do you have a link to this? I'd like to add this style to my toolbox. Thanks, Greg

Sawer Rob, Off topic some, but, how do you keep your cutter from digging in during frontward pulls? I have a Woods BB60 and unless I drive in reverse it will surely dig in on one side or the other and leave a gouge in my clay soil? I need to "constantly" watch the front edges and make...

Late reply here also; as I don't have a bobcat, but my tym has a removable/cleanable screen inside the suction hose that attaches to the transmission -- perhaps Bobcat does also? You being an Bobcat owner would probably know if you do. IDK but it's a thought to check out. Good luck and best...

jaydee, Thanks for the informative link! I just read it and now have an answer to whether air filters should be washed or not - Definitely not - is my new knowledge! Thanks for that link.

Good question Dennis, I've wondered the same thing. I put approx. 100 hrs. a year on mine and often in dusty conditions so I do take the filter out and blow with air often, but it still looks good - seems to still work okay - and is quite expensive to replace at such low hour usage that I wait...

yeah Slowpoke Slim, I'm originally from Northern Mn. (Kettle River) and you folks get some serious cold weather in the winters! I'm glad that they have at least some charging stations built, that's about a 2 hour dive one-way for you.

Agvg, I second what two_bit_score said -- Thanks for the info on what is driven in Norway! Was very interesting to learn that.

3gunr, While that's true I'm sure that you won't find a bolt up ready kit elsewhere. If op wants it to look as stock as possible and as easy to put on, he's going to have to source a TYM kit. $$ yes, but easily assembled and looks are what come with the kit.

Roadworthy, Just a quick question per battery load tests; if you load test a battery and the needle enters the weak range does that mean battery is getting worn out? Or just that it's weak? My guess is that it's about shot but I'm not that savvy per the load test diagnosis tests. Thanks and...

JimRB, Thanks for posting this video. I found it fascinating to watch a machinist do their very exacting work! Way out of my league but very informative, interesting and educational!

Glad to hear that you are now back up and running!! Good job of dealing with frustration!

tom53, Unfortunately that gives you a clue as to the reliability/advice you can expect from that dealer. But, at least you seem to have one close to you - not all of us do!

Thanks ArlyA, I now see the machine and know what it is. That other picture posted just "looked" huge and I had no idea what it might have been for! Must have been an extreme close-up pic. Thanks for clarifying for me. Greg

I'm not seeming to follow everything here - of course I could be lost way off base - but looking at your picture in post#8, why couldn't you just flip the valve around - to the left, mount as same - and then your "flexible" hoses would be inserted into the correct ports and valve would respond...

This entire thread was interesting and also educational. I've learned several various ways to pour oils/fuels out of a 5 gallon pail. Some of the simplest ways are the ones I've never thought of (placing the pail on a bench [with spout up top] and simply turning the pail slightly - Genius!!)...

ArlyA, I've never seen a tool like you show in post#6? What kind of ripper is that, how is it used, and what for?? It looks "tremendously" big and must take a "large" hp unit to run it? Just curious.

It's deceiving, 30' is probably the longest log and the butt might be 14" across. Rustyiron, That does "look" like a large load of wood - but - if it's anything at all like when I chip what "looks" like a large pile of limbs, it always only gives me a tiny pile of chips. Once cut up, split...
