I decided to buy a Montana 4940C instead of a John Deere. I am starting to wonder if that was a good decision now. I will admit that my Montana Runs well. It does everything that I have wanted to do very well. It cost me thousands less than an equivalent John Deere. However I was in a Farm...

Maybe it is just me but I think one of the biggest problems I see today is lack of customer service. I can remember when companies worried about a customers buisness. Today I feel that they could care less even if they are going broke. I bought a new cook stove at sears three weeks ago. It was...

I just bought a set of forks off of ebay. I thought I would write a bit about the fun I had making the Forks fit my tractor. The forks did not have a quick attach so I am building one. The first thing I found out was that backing plate was narrower than the arms of my loader. I went to the...

I have a trailer that is made from an old dump truck. I had to replace the hoses on it and I have a question. The pressure side is 1/2 hose. The other side of the valve going back to the tank is 1 inch. I went to a place to get the 3 foot hose and it was going to be 65.00. I could probably get...

Let me get the disclaimers out of the way first. Pats is a great product from what I have read and in no way am I trying to make anything like it. I have a question for anyone with more fabrication experience than I have. I have the three point quick attach that they sell at harbor freight. It...

The bar of steel that fits between the arms on your three point hitch it has holes all accross that bar. I have always heard them called draw bars but technically I believe the draw bar is the bar that goes underneath the frame and comes out and you hook chains, trailers etc to it. what is the...

I had a post earlier about a used dump trailer that I bought that the axle came out from under it on the way home. I am about caught up to where I can work on it later this week or next week. I need some advice about springs. The trailer did not come with springs on it the axle was welded to...

In another thread a poster talked about modifying his bumper trailer to a fifth wheel. There was a lot of good advice about how to do it. Some of the problems associated with it. There was a lot of talk about legal issues of just welding it like that. I am curious how many people have bought...

I went to use the three point hitch on my montana and it would not go down. I tried pushing it down with my hands and could not get it to budge an inch. I tried moving the control lever up and down several times. The first time I did it the 3ph went to the top of its travel but would not go...

I spoke to the montana dealer in fayetteville a while back about getting the bucket quick attach added on to my older montana which did not have one. They said montana now has it and if I would just come down and make sure it is the right one they can send it over to the dealer and I can have...

The first time I forgot to fold the cupholder back into position on my 4940C it did not survive me getting back into the tractor. I went to a very large discount store. I wont mention names but their headquarters are located in Bentonville, Arkansas. In the boating section they had some...
