I'm putting used metal on a new storage barn. There are (of course) holes in the used metal. Some too big (nail-head sized) for silicone (my usual method). I thought of using regular tar but saw here a thread on using Henry's and Elastomatic. Anyone have any experience w/ these or similar...

Looking at 45-55 HP tractors and down to the JD 5055 E vs Kub 5100. 4WD w/ FEL and extra remotes ~ $26,500 (or ~ $11,500 + my JD 4310). I don't care for the NHs in that range; I haven't looked at Mahindra etc. The Kub MXs seem to have balance problems - you have to load the rear tires to carry...

A friend has a small tractor with a label on the hood (and the manual) "Bush Hog Javelina II". It's about the size of a riding lawn mower, has numerous attachments and a 3-point hitch. Anyone heard of this unit? Know anything about it? So may my searching has turned up lots of info about...

Understand that it has Toyosha engine but the tractor was made by Hinomoto. Parts sem to be available for now from agco. Anyone have any experience with them? I seem them rated 40 HP and 33 HP w/ no ref to drawbar/ PTO/ engine so I don't even know working HP.

I sometimes see 19670s-80s Deutz tractors for sale (Ohio) at decent prices. Often 4WD, 50-70 HP, air-cooled. This would be a handy utility tractor for me but there doesn't seem to be a strong dealer network around (I think they're part of Agco now). Anyone have good/ bad experience with...

I'm looking for a an older tractor to run a larger bush hog, some misc work. Thought 50-70 HP would do it. Found a decent Ford 6000 diesel ~ 1959 I think. A solid older tractor (condition) and proced reasonably. Anyone know about these? I see some 5000s but few 6000s for sale. Additional...

I've been looking at 40-50 HP tractors, new & used. I'd only buy newif I traded my Kubota 3060 mower. I was looking atJD (I have a 4310) and Kubota. Branson seems to come up often. Where are the made? is there anyone who doesn't like them? I looked at Zetor (expensive), NH (Italian), MF...

I'm starting this as a new thread - quoting ScottAR and Builder - I hope this works and is allowed. Does anyone else know about this machine? Or do either of you know more? The only decent 4WD I found is in AZ. It really is my kind of machine. It's a hair lighter than a JD 710 but really an...

I'd looked at some 655s and just recently came across 2 675s. Same size and years as the 655 (I think). I assume the 675 is a 655 with more HP (the owners don't seem to know). There's also a 575 but I haven't run one yet. Anyone know the difference between these 2 machines? Or where I might...

A friend has a used Valtra-Valmet tractor ~ 70-80 HP that he bought used for almost nothing and swears by. Finnish? Merged now with Volvo? I don't find much on the internet about them.

I asked for feedback about backhoes (separate thread). This is some info about recent pricing. Yesterday I went to a Ritchie equipment auction (Ritchie Bros. Auctioneers - Unreserved Equipment Auctions) in Cambridge OH. I went mostly to see values but not to buy - although some of the...

I have been shopping for a used backhoe $15-$25K. I started out at $25K but there seem to be lots of deals there: big contractors don't use TLBs anymore, business is slow. This is for farm use and some ciustom work. I've had mostly JD but also Case & MF. Some advice I've gotten is to stick...
