Looking at rebuilding my pickup a little on my John Deere 530 round Baler. I found a place (in Alberta I believe) that specializes in dismantling and used JD round Baler parts but have lost their contact information. Any direction greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Mower turns over by hand but slip clutch won't grab. Any temporary fixes until I can get it fixed properly?

The threads on my roll gap adjuster are stripped and unable to adjust. What's the best way to fix this? Left side is issue, right side shown in picture.

Looking at hauling a round baler long distance on my gooseneck for the first time. Any tips on loading/unloading, tying down, blocking, height, width? At widest point it is 9" wider than trailer and allowable width without permit.

We have been storing up to 1200 bales a year in our gravel floor barn and have been fighting the moisture in our bottom two rows. I have built up the gravel to be about 6" above grade and have lined the whole floor with wooden pallets and still the bottom two bales pretty well go to waste. I get...

Looking for advice on what to feed our 3 month old jersey steer calf. He is weened off milk and has been on 18% medicated dairy calf starter for over a month. This feed says to only feed up to 3 months of age. The next step is a 16% medicated dairy calf developer, but I want to get away from...

I have a late 90s model PJ gooseneck trailer with tandem 7000 lb torsion axles. I believe these are dexter axles. One is bent and needs to be replaced. The most reputable axle company around has suggested to replace it with a flexi ride. Problem is they do not make one that matches my...

I need to upgrade my current New Holland 478 mower conditioner. There is case international 8340 for sale close by. Does anyone have reviews on this piece. Thanks!

My throttle linkage came apart in the field and I can't find the missing pieces or even know what they look like or where they go. It is working now but not correctly. I've searched JD parts schematics but can't find the right one. On the website I've found the linkages from console down to...

Does anyone have a skating rink on a man made pond? Year after year our pond freezes and then the ice breaks and water comes on top the ice and wrecks the rink. Why does this happen? How can I stop it? Thanks

I am looking for advice on whether to keep rebuilding my tractor or to buy something newer? I have 1965 JD 3020 gas synchro range rated 70hp pto. I am wanting to switch to round baling as our 30 acre field continues to yield more every year and is becoming too much work for the little amount...

Was cutting hay yesterday and sounds like the PTO clutch is making slipping noises. I was wondering if there is any adjustments I can make to put more pressure on the clutch. Was thinking about shortening operating rod. Thanks.

Hey all. Looking for some suggestions. I cut 10 acres and the morning I was planning on raking and baling it rained. Ended up being a decent day so I attemted to rake it out, let it dry, and then bale but it was still too wet. Now I'm looking at a week of rainy days. What to do? Thanks.

I noticed a new leak yesterday on my 3020. It looked like it was coming from above the front support for the draw bar. Today I took the support off to inspect the leak. When I did all my hydraulic fluid came out. I thought that was pretty stupid, should've read the repair manual first. So I read...

I'm switching my 3020 over to electronic ignition. which brand of spark plug should I go with? Thanks

Looks like I may be getting a BX25. I have quite the to do list for it already. Wondering how capable it will be of a few things on the list. I'm looking to get a 4 foot rotary mower for it mainly for clearing trails and fence lines of willows. How well will they work together? Also I would...

My hand throttle is not keeping the tractor at a working RPM. Also it is very hard/stiff to operate. Want to get it fixed now because the engine is sputtering when gassing between idle and 2000rpm. Engine is gas. Thanks in advance.

Anybody know if they still make these? My tractor has one 15.5-38 BFG Power Grip on it and one old tire that should be replaced soon. Of course I punctured the good tire. Looking at getting tire guys to come out to fix it, figured once they're out here (which costs me about $400CAD) I might as...

My tractor didn't come with a cable to control the Rockshaft. I just bought a new one and in the process of installing. I will be able to get it to work, but I believe the mounting brackets are no longer on tractor. Could anyone take pics of theirs so I can see how they are mounted? Thanks!

I cut my hay last night for my first time. Everything went well. Mower and tractor did their jobs. Few questions: 20 acres took me 5 hours. Fast in the thin spots and slower in the thick spots. How is that for time? How long does it take you to cut per acre? It rained a little right after...

My shoe adjustment bolts are siezed. They are in the fully up position right now which makes for a cut much lower than I would like. I was hoping to do two high passes around edge of my field to avoid sticks from hydro brush cutting and then drop height back down to maybe second hole for rest...

I am in the process of building a new barn. It will be 20x40 12 feet high with future lean too's off either side of 15 feet wide for total of 50x40 feet. The center for now will be half winter hay storage and half tractor and misc storage. Here is my progress so far!

I need to re-establish my hay field. I have a JD 3020 gas with synchro range and wondering if I should pull discs or a plow. And what size of each would fit my tractor good without working it to the max. How do finishing discs work as breaking discs? I don't see many breaking discs in my...

I have a 1965 3020 gas with FEL. I first noticed the oil pressure gauge running low when I was fertilizing about 5 operating hours ago. I had a known hydraulic leak and was checking level every time I filled the hopper. I fixed the leak right after I was done fertilizing. Now when I start the...

Wondering how these hay rakes operate. Do you just drop your 3 point as low as it will go and let the wheels ride on the ground? Two in my area for sale, looking at getting the Cheaper of the two, any more info would be great. Thanks

This is tonight's welding project. What do you figure, should I clean the grease out of the king pin or just burn away?

Noticed a small leak the last few days. Now it's coming out too much to be running tractor. Was planning on fertilizing in two days. Where should I start looking for the problem spot?

This is my first tractor so I'm not sure on how this should be operating. The cable between my dash lever and valve lever for the raise/lower 3 point did not come with tractor. To raise and lower it I just use the valve lever. The problem I'm having is it always goes up and down super fast and...

Hey guys, I searched around this spring for someone to cut my hay but no one wants to as field is in poor shape. So, I'm gearing up to do it myself. So far I bought a square baler, but I have many question about it and the process of haying. Hopefully when my baler manual shows up I'll have less...

Just bought a new holland 67 square baler at the auction today. I was wondering if anyone knew how wide the tire stance was on it. Looks too wide for my trailer. Thanks

I'd like to have an operational 3 point hitch by spring time. The state of mine is shown in the pictures. Every time I look to replace something I find something else that needs replacing. Wondering if it would be best to replace piece by piece or what? I bought two cat 2 weld on eyes for the...

Howdy all, Tonight I will be taking off one of the lift cylinders for my John Deere 148 front end loader. I am putting in a new seal kit tomorrow. Was wondering if anyone had or knew where I could find an expanded view of the cylinder. Also any info that may be useful along the way for me...

Howdy all, Where is the best place to get parts for my John Deere 3020... in Canada or any places out of states that can ship relatively inexpensive. Yesterdays tractor and all states ag parts have everything I need but cost $75 to ship $50 part. Is there any places like these in Canada. There...

Looking at buying this. 82" buhler farm king mower with a few new parts. Category 1 3ph and looks like it was lightly use. Seller wants $1500. Was wondering if anyone had some input? What's it worth new? What it's capable of cutting? I have lots of small diameter willows to mow. Thanks

I recently got a 1965 John Deere 3020 with front end loader. Everything has been working good until lately it's had trouble starting. Starting solenoid always clicks in and starter always turns, but sounds like it has a drained battery. Jump started it with my truck a handful of times and it...

In the process of buying a 1964 John Deere 3020 with front end loader. When the tractor is sitting at a cold idle there is a tick sound every few seconds in the hydraulics. Sounds like a valve. The noise stops when you use the hydraulics and when the hyd oil warms up. Any ideas what this could...
