I made two 8ft hose extensions to go from my mid-scv's to the rear. They have quick connects on both ends. When I first use these won't they have air in them? Will this bleed out automatically or do I need to do something or is it even a problem at all? When they are connected to the mid-scv...

Does anyone have a picture of their tractor (preferably the 4xxx size tractor) with the wheels set wide that they could post? I have R1's and it looks like the back tires would be really wide and the front ones would only change a couple of inches? I have a 4500. Thanks in advance for posting...

Craigslist for columbus (OH?) has an adjustable set of front loader attach pallet works frame and all for $150, not the cheap clamp on type. I'd do it in a second if it wasn't 700 miles away. Someone could get a great bargain. If you go to google and type in craigslist pallet fork you can...

I'm getting ready to start the install of the 3rd scv kit on my 4500. Anybody else done this and have any tips? My main question is does the spool valve really need to be removed? That looks like quite of bit of extra work if it doesn't need to be done. Any tips or pics would be helpful! I...

Just ordered the 3rd SCV kit for my 4500. Can anyone tell me what male quick coupler I will need? It would be nice to know not just the JD part which I believe is am105467, but also what quick coupler it actually is. I would like to find adapters for it so I don't have to change the hose ends...

This seems like a silly question because there is probably a simple answer but here goes. How do you grade a driveway or road that is very wide? I was taught to angle your blade and pull the material to the center of the road or driveway and then turn the blade around backwards and drag it...

I have a Landpride RB1572 rear blade now which is too small for my JD4500 (I had it with my 790). My tread width measures about 6 foot wide (turf tires), HP is 39, tractor is 4wd, and weighs about 3300 pounds without the loader installed (I have the loader). I think I would need an 8 footer to...

After towing a fertlizer cart the other day which had measurements for the distance of the PTO hookup to the drawbar I realized there are specific dimensions for these connections. I don't remember them offhand, but after talking to my brother who is a farmer he said that you run the risk of...

Yesterday I spread about a ton of fertilizer on my 12 acres of pasture and lawn using a fertilizer cart supplied by the local grain elevator. I was really worried if the JD 4500 would handle it, but it did great. Uphill, downhill (only slightly), and across small ditches it did fine. I'm...

Just brought home my new 4500 4wd with 460 loader and almost brand new rhino 6 foot brush cutter. Now I have a 4500 and 790. I'll be selling the 790 ASAP. My 2000 4500 has 4wd, powerreverser, and turf tires and has 479 hours. I'm thinking about getting R4's and wheels too. Anybody have a...

I just bought the rear auxiliary hydraulic line kit and was going to install it. Has anyone done this and do they have any tips before I start? Also, it appears it ties into the joystick control for the loader and then has to have a bypass line installed when not used. Can the rear lines be...
