Here’s Hans, my new bird dog from Germany.

In process of researching my next mower. I'm in no rush and just now starting the process.. I like the idea of rear discharge. No chute to deal with, no clippings blown into face on windy days, and can "trim" on either side. Are there any disadvantages? Looking into hustler x-one with...

No replies so I just went with it. Bought a simple 2" lift off eBay for about $45 and got some Polaris rzr take offs for $400 never been used, fancier wheels and 27" (vs original 25"). I shouldn't drag anymore [emoji106] Stock 25" With 27", no lift With new tires and lift. Still need...

With all the washouts we've had lately, I find my 2013 Ranger 500 crew midsize dragging here and there so would like to put a lift on it. They seem to range anywhere from $40 to $200???? Any real difference in them I should know about? TIA!!

Wondering if anyone has a security system that is cellular only and what options exist? I've found Simplysafe but can't tell if they're any good or if there are better options. I realize being rural, sherif response time will not be immediate but given I'm not living there full time it will...

Take a little dirt.

Enjoy!!! IMO, everyone should have the "classics" in their collection.

I trenched several hundred feet with a 45hp ride on trencher. Had rocks so I first cleared them with a subsoiler. Had electrician do the electric then I did the water. Was a lot easier to backfill with the trencher front blade but I had already turned it in by the time I finished it out so...

Ar15 100yds These are my favorite targets. Shoot everything from 22 to hi power

I wouldn't waste too much time trying to figure out what's best... If there's something you don't like about it down the road, change it. Got tired of the front sight block on mine so it's gone, now my M&P is a piston driven with a free float hand guard.

Not sure if they still come this way but it's one of my favorite packages... Excellent case, holster and mag holder.

Unfortunately I need to set up cameras on my property. I don't have Internet and the distances will be spread out. Any advice for easy concealment, long battery life and maybe something will loop so I don't have to clear the cards every couple months? I have wildgame innovations game cameras...

I got this sweet ryobi 18v spot light for my birthday that lights up my whole field. Want to get it to be red so I can use to hunt preditor. Any options?

I've got the LandPride. I like it, seems to cut well. Can't say I've had the same issues that post u reference has had.

Sweet deal! So is it 6'? Looks bigger. Unloading can be challenging ;)

I admit I know nothing about snakes and get the hegebiegees even thinking about them. Can someone help identify this one? Sorry, no close up of his head. No rattles so I let him pass.

Trying to figure out the wire type needed to run to a sub panel in barn. Want to run 150' in attic (no conduit) of main house, come out by garage and then 50' under ground (in conduit). Planning on 2/3 with #4 ground... 100amp From what I can tell, cannot run URD in attic but could be an...

Adda boy!!

Plus they typically have threaded barrels opening up even more options.... Don't prefer the noise. Man I love our freedom!

Love my black ugly gun with fantastic accuracy, quick follow up shot capability! [emoji106] One night (love night hunting too!) I got 3 pigs. Talk about a lot of pork!!

So a project has come up giving me the excuse to get a spool gun for my Lincoln 210MP. Looking at the Magnum Pro but my question is, are there better ones out there/other brands that will fit my machine? BTW, Lincoln has their 210MP on sale for $999. Thx!

So the mice ate up a few wires and didn't leave me much to splice into. This is to my gas gage sending unit. Not sure there is enough to solder onto. Can u buy these with a pigtail or is it possible to disassemble? All advice welcome.

I like the design. I looked at it long and hard before I bought my ETA.

Will try to post pic. I have a small loom near the starter with a single wire coming out and not sure where it goes. There is a bigger loom above it that has a wire coming out that I think goes to fuel sending unit. Can anyone help confirm?

Just sold my old mig and looking to get something new. Eyeing the 210mp, has induction, run in, arc force and hot start as some nice features. I like mig in the shop but will probably go stick for building pipe cattle pens/fencing and who knows, may even try tig down the road. Duty cycle...

Zero concerns.

Anyone know how to tell the differences of hst vs hst-3? TIA!

Just curious if anyone has a backhoe on a GL and if you have pics of subframe and plumbing? Do you have to remove 3pt arms to hook up and is it a pain? TIA!

They are nice!! Agree they're overpriced. Mine even has cup holders!

Alright, so this thread isn't about me or my wife's spending habits and how we racked up so much in Cabelas points..... I will get seriously depressed thinking about it. I always thought I would walk out of there with a high grade heavily embellished 20 ga work of art for free!!!.. But haven't...

Cab model? Not exactly the same but very close. The gray parts were attached to the fender on mine.

I like the gongs but have more fun with reactive targets. Got this and a dueling tree..

They are fun! Something about squeezing one off and ready for the next instantly!!

Worthless without pics! Here you can see how front sight sticks up in front of scope. U don't even see it. S&W sport.

Odd, my middle remote acts kinda similar. Seems almost like its sticking. If I jam it in one direction or the other quickly the cylinder moved normally. I have 3: 1- float 2- float 3- d/a

I enjoy checking game cameras almost as much as hunting. Amazing how curious deer can be.... Odd notches on ears, wonder if this was bred on a game ranch somewhere?

I've done several hundred feet in hilly rocky terrain. First I Subsoiler to pop the large rocks out then I rented a 45hp ride on trencher and worked it hard. Got the insurance and glad I did.

My boys and I love to shoot. But I've never liked the disturbance it caused to the peaceful country atmosphere. Plus the use of hearing protection is a hassle. So I fixed that by making my own nfa compliant suppressor. Amazing that all parts ordered off the internet. It's also perfectly...

Max lift Finished product Great views from porch and windows

Well, 1 man and a tractor. Would have been easier if I had just 4" more lift on FEL...

1,250# 1st pass. Handles no prob with my smaller tractor.

Twins?

Poser shot. Made short work of this area.

Over the Cab roof. Hard to see where I was going.

Apologize for the single post per pic. My phone app locks up every time I try to add more than 1 pic.

This will be some of my testing grounds. Used to be ankle high. Now it's above the roof of the ranger in spots.

Here's a pic pulling it into the shed to grease it up and check fluid and slip clutch before first use. Oddly I hit my curl relief. Guess it's hanging out there pretty far. No problem lifting. Had my Gannon as counter weight.

Picked up a used RCR2596 3pt on Monday and got it unloaded today. Was hoping to test it but ran out of daylight and still need to check the slip clutch runout. Tractor is a L5240 HSTC with a rated 45 PTO hp.

It will do it but it will push you around. I had my weight distributing hitch cranked down pretty good and told myself I wouldn't do this again. Borrowed my BIL's 3/4 ton the next time I hauled it and it was a dream. Now I own a 3/4 ton.

Looking to upgrade from this. Not safe at all and should t have done it. Light weight car hauler. I could max out 2 7k axles depending on how many implements I carry. I'm looking at 24'.

My truck is rated at 13k conventional towing and 14k GN. If I go GN, I gain 1k lbs towing but the trailer will likely be 500 lbs heavier so only gaining 500 lbs towing. GN trailer will cost abt $500 more plus equiping my truck with hitch will be abt $400. Bumper pull gains me bed space but a...

Hi, looking at a Landpride twin spindle rcf3096 3pt. On Craigslist. Specs say the pull type can run on 40hp but 3pt runs on 50... My tractor specs out at 45pto hp.... Tractor weight isn't an issue, cab tractor with loaded tires. Anyone know why 3pt requires more PTO and thoughts if I should...

What's the going rate to cut an open field per acre? No trees or thick brush involved, mostly grass and weeds.

What would you buy? Anyone have this Curt? Gooseneck for 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 - Curt C61301-52

Here we go...

Plus I never want to do this again. Like to Think I'm gettin smarter as I get older.

Ok guys, gonna try to keep brand bashing out of this..... Wife says my '99 Chevy 1500 with 240k miles has got to go... I'm looking for a gasser only, can't justify the diesel. I haul lots of feed/junk/utv/tractor to my land 120 miles away several times a year but drive 62 miles round trip to...

Holding up so far to a .45. Had to turn my wire speed down and spend more time on the ar500 plate to get decent fillet weld.

3pt is only good for brush around this size IMO. I deal with Mesquite ain't no way to pull big uns like you guys are.

Finished product. Base is made out of scrap laying around. I guess some shots with my 45 and 454 should tell if my bubblegum sticking holds up.

Yeah. That ar500 plate is different. First quick tack rolled off it. Hard to get a good pic.

Is there a site that would help me understand more about my welds? For example, what does it look like if my wire is to fast or to slow, machine to hot or to cold?

If it starts to look like this, stop.

Weather bug only shows about an Hr loop. Anyone know a website that will show me a radar image of past 24 hr activity? Trying to see what went over my place last night.

Sorry this is a bad pic but an old one of my b7500 tank. U can see the hose in background

R4s will work depending on soil. Here's a shot of my 24/20

Well I only had a little time to play with it. Not quite a full review yet. Unloading. Everyone likes a pallet fork pic. I could feel it for sure. Getting ready to make a first pass After one pass. I think my tilt cylinder needed to be shortened a little. Here is a comparison...

Not as nice as xfaxman but works for my needs. Homemade 3pt puller.

Yep, got my disc harrow built and shipped same week, 3-4 days.

I agree with Eddie, Dead hogs will bring em in. I usually find them stripped clean and nothing but bones in 3-4 days. Set up a game cam last time and saw coyotes, hawks, vultures, neighbors dog from 1/4 mike away and after the hog was dragged off more hogs sniffing around... Shot these 2 new...

The last pic was lifting my box blade out of my truck so I had to work up a makeshift counter weight. SSQA is a must for me since I swap between my bucket and forks a lot.

Yep, fired off 2. Not exactly midnight but new years morn....

Happy New Year! No Deer this morning but productive none the less. Looks like I'm iced in till Sat... Oh darn :)

Got back from my annual pheasant hunt in Perryton, tx. Love these birds.... Got a good history lesson on how farming has evolved in that region..gone from using plows to discs to now using sweeps along with a 52' drill. They have two pivot tractors and farm 5k acres with only 2 people...

I poped my grease zerk and need to replace, anyone know the pitch? It's not M10

A Frame farm house, 2br, 1 bath, open living room/kitchen with a loft roughly 1.8k sq ft. Was origionaly built with just 3 window unit ACs and a wood stove for heat. Had a guy come out and quote me a 4 unit mini split system... WOW, sticker shock... $19.7k! Asked what a central system and...

The standoff and the fight. Seem to be starting a little early.

I have a Scott's L2048, basically same as the Deere L120 mowers... My clutch is engaging but appears the brake pad is worn out and won't hold it. I tested it's engaging by directly connecting to batt. It clicks and moves but I can still turn it. Anyone know if these can be rebuilt?

My 1/2 ton has 225k miles on the clock and figured it was time to start thinking about replacing. Been using my BILs 3/4 ton for hauling my tractor and heavy equipment so figured I should look into being able to do it with my own truck. My land is 120 miles away but I also drive my truck to...

My boxes looked the same I think it's just the weight and awkward size. I'm surprised you sheered the bolt, I got a few spares but haven't sheered one yet. I use mine to pop rocks out of the ground, and has worked beautifully. Once I hit the rock, extend my top link and up 3pt and there's...

So I popped this rock out of the ground on a hill and when I started to back down the hill my right front tire dropped into the hole left by the rock. Was a little off camber and the weight of the tractor tilted to the right side and I now see grease has squirted out the tiny hole n the zerk...

Inspired by another thread I thought about making my own. Not having a big enough welder I reached out to my wife's cousin. Sent him a pic and video and asked if he knew someone that could make one. Said looks easy enough, got most of that laying around. Friday night got this:

What do you do? I read here that many prefer paste but for the life of me, I seem to have many of them leak when I paste...

Probably should have posted new thread. Just incase someone ever tries to search for it: http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/attachments/317049-subsoiler-options-pricing.html

I'm planning on installing one of these so I can control the speed of my cylinder. https://www.surpluscenter.com/Hydraulics/Hydraulic-Valves/Flow-Control-Valves/1-4-NPT-5-GPM-PRINCE-WNV-400-NEEDLE-VALVE-9-7961-4.axd It says it can control flow by 0-5gpm. My tractor puts out more than 5gpm...

I folded my cheap subsoiler backwards last night trying to pop a rock out of the ground I'm preparing for an electric and waterline trench. I expected it so no biggie and knew I needed something bigger was just seeing if it might work before I bought a bigger one. Now on to shopping. TSC has...

I have 3 old fields that have mesquite starting to take over. Fields haven't been in production for over 10 yrs and mesquites are about 4-10' tall. Does grubbing kill it for good or will it just cause the root to sprout back with avengence? If it does kill it, is it depth dependent? Do I...

Would like to know who's running the biggest. Please let me know size, weight, model, what you cut and how it works. Pics a plus. Anyone run twin tail wheels or twin gear boxes? TIA!

Got all the parts Friday and have "bench" assembled the major components, ready to drop into the L5240 cab next weekend. Below is a pic of everything ready to go. I shopped 4 different dealers (2 often mentioned here, one didn't reply) and 2 others I've dealt with. Prices varied by several...

Ive spent a couple hrs trying to look this up on the web and couldnt find a good answer. I'm thinking about rewiring my property to eliminate one of the two meters while at the same time wiring up a recently drilled deep well. Here is the setup. 3 buildings in roughly a straight row about...

My electric is provided by Comanche Electric coop and have 2 meters providing electric to a barn that's about 500' away from an occasional use house. They're hitting me with a $22 fee on each meter ($44/mth) for "availability charge" because of my limited use. I typically only average about $20...

Here's the situation, existing house has 2 1.5k gal water tanks feeding house with small pressure tank and 3/4 hp pump. I just drilled a well that's down the hill about 250'. Guessing the hill has around 20-30' elevation. As you can see from the picture, it looks like my best option for...

Anyone know major differences between the two? I can get the Howse for $650 less... I like the screw adjustments on the EA but don't see a $650 advantage and that's a considerable savings. Both weigh 1,249 lbs Both have 3x3 tube Both have 1 1/8 axles with sealed bearings I need to get a 3 pt...

Picked up a used Gannon 78HB with hydraulic scarfers. :thumbsup: Need to find a replacement Cat 2 Lower link pin and can't seem to find any. Need Cat 2 without threads, just a pin. Anyone seen them around? Next need to add rear remotes and TnT... Let the fun begin...... TIA! J

About to add 3 factory remotes and looks like I have a choice of 2 valves: - double acting - float detent Is the float detent valve basically a double acting with float? Trying to decide if I should set all 3 up with float or if there is anything different about the double acting I need to...

Hooked the post hole digger up for the first time with the 5240. Sure was nice to be able to watch it dig and control the pto speed with my foot vs. the hand throttle. Drilled at a slow speed then sped it up while raising to clean the hole out. Huge difference over my b7500 where I would cross...

Ive hunted for years but this is the first time I've owned a place and could put cameras out to really take a good look at the wildlife. with the long term dought, seems like I'm seeing smaller deer. What would you gage the age of these? Maybe 3 yr?

Got the tractor at the homestead currently so thought I would put it to work laying 130' of 4" drain pipe. Only implement I have is a King KutterXB Middle Buster/Subsoiler combo from my old B7500. I used a couple buckets of rocks to help weight it down to get better depth. I started out with...

When tryin to upload pics from my iPhone, they turn out upside down. They look fine on my phone bu after upload they're either on their side or upside down. Any way to fix?

My place didn't have a water well rather 2 1.5k gal storage tanks for the small house and another one for one of the barns. I'm thinking about replacing with a well. Is there anything I should look for in a driller? Any time of the year that is cheaper? Figure I'll have to go 350-400'. TIA! J

I have a 11 yr old straight shaft echo trimmer. The head keeps spinning and won't disengage. Does it have some sort of clutch? Maybe it just needs to be greased? If grease, what kind should I use? TIA! J

Purchased 160 acres in April and trying to figure out best tax plan for me. The property is currently Ag exempt and at this point, I'm not ready to put the fields back into production or run cattle.

Found this on a new piece of land. It's got tons of spikes on it and a lever that adjusts the angle of the spikes. Can someone tell me what it is? What it does to the ground? Why and when would I use it? Pretty small so I'm thinkin it would be best behind my 4 wheeler or ranger 500 crew? TIA, J

Seems like prices vary by dealer. Looking to add OEM remotes and wondering if anyone has found the cheapest dealer? TIA J
