    Exhaust Extension Tubing?

    I recently purchased a 2002 JD 790, which is proving to be an excellent tractor -- except the top of the exhaust pipe is exactly level with my face while I'm driving. I would like to reduce the amount of diesel particulates I inhale, but am severely finance limited. I was thinking I could just...

    Rotary Cutter  Bushhog Top Link Question

    I have a bushhog that I bought new about 2 years ago, but I am wondering if I need to loosen one of the top bolts to allow it to float better? It has a joint in the upper diagonal bracing, which is behind where 3-pt top link attaches, which looks like it should allow some motion, however the...

    New-To-Me 790 -- Gear Question & Tips?

    After a convoluted & arduous tractor quest that dragged on for way too long, I just brought home a 2002 JD 790 in excellent condition, just 517 hrs on it & runs great. I was a little anxious on how it would handle my 600 lb bush hog, but I hooked it up for the first time today & needn't have...

    Taking In Used Tractor -- What To Care For First?

    This tractor has supposedly been "taken care of" by another party, but it looks like the most they did is start up and drive it now and again and smear some grease around once in a while. Oil is black as midnight and PTO is (was) dry and dirty, engine doesn't look like anyone has opened the...

    Using a 4-in-1 Bucket -- Especially Cut/Grading

    Yep, new person and learning the tractor. It's my first "proper" tractor as I'm building my horse farm (well, tractor owned by BFF but she sold her farm so it's on loan -- but omg, she's never getting it back :cool:). It has a Woods 155 Dual FEL with a 4n1 bucket with big teeth on the front...

    Hello Tractor Peoples!!

    I just wanted to say hi -- I am learning as I go with the tractor, so this forum looks like a great resource and comes highly recommended. I'm in the process of building a 10-acre farm for my horses (I am a 3-day-eventer), the house is almost done and if I'm lucky, I get to move...
