So far I've only seen one that tried to catch a deer. I'm not sure how it ended over the hill, but the deer saw him as he started the charge about 100 yards away. Recently my dog caught one I believe trying to eat his food. He not only killed the coyote , but also ate it. Not much left but the...

Looking at getting some Amsteel Blue, Yellow, etc rope to replace some chains. Mainly used for towing, pulling, lifting etc. is there a difference in the colors or same quality? Also wondering if 5/16" would be large enough w/12,000 lb strength ? Or should I look at larger.?

I'M needing to pull a new log splitter 200 miles on the highway. Average speed around 70mph. The splitter states 45 mph max. Is this kind of like the uhaul trailers you see going 70-80 that have the 45 mph sticker on back? Of course there's no lights, but can easily see truck lights. I'd add a...

In a JD 1015 scut is there any harm in strapping the lift arms up while mowing with mowing deck and lift arms in the down position? The reason is when mowing with deck and arms down, there's a few short steep hills. When I back up the lift arms dig into the ground. If I lift the arms up with...

New Jd 1025 that says Ultra Low Sulfur ONLY! Is this more for emissions or will the high sulfur dyed deisel work well with NO problems? I don't want to damage a new tractor, but don't want to spend more than I have too either.

While doing ground work it developed some hydraulic fluid leaks. The hotter it got the more it leaked. . Two of the leaks were two missing plugs on top of rear axles. I plugged them with bolts. I assume these were to bleed air out?? My main problem is that it's leaking out the bottom of...

Looking at buying first scut w/ 60 " 7 iron deck and H120 loader. I can see the differences with the suspension seat, lights, cruise, tilt wheel, 12vdc plug, floor mat and position control 3 pt hitch. and 2-3 hp. Other than the position control 3 pt vs the basic 3 pt, and 2-3 hp, the rest seems...

This was touched on in another topic, but thought I needed its own. I beg of everyone not to mess with a starter on tractor with battery hooked up. I accidentally shorted a starter in tractor while in gear four days ago. After being airlifted to a trama 1 hospital and total hip replacement, I'm...

Hi guys, hope there's a simple solution to my problem.Just got the tractor and the pto works, but can not engage with engine running. It just grinds the gears. I sure don't want to damage anything. Is there some kind of throw out bearing not working or is this how they are? I've tried different...

I'm new to some of the terminology and uses on some tractors with a over abundance of levers. I get the live pto , draft etc. , but curious what the shuttle shift is and use? The two stage clutch & use. I'm sure there's others although that's two that come to mind first.
