    Some one wanted to know if we'd buy an EV tractor

    The motors and batteries all have cooling systems.

    Latest grab by auto manufactures

    All EV's come with a L1 charging cable, if you want a L2 it will cost extra. Then you need to have a 40 amp 220 to plug it into to. I know, I have one.

    Latest grab by auto manufactures

    BMW is doing this, $39 a month or $390 a year. Who needs (wants) a heated seat more than a few months of the year anyway?

    sharpening mower blades

    I have one, used it a few times, cuts well but how often are there no rocks around the base of a small tree? Seems like every time I used it, it hit something. But it did cut well if you can avoid them.

    Drum Mower

    have a Ranch Rite DM-135 Drum Mower, like it a lot, does a great job of cutting, but it cuts the field way too short. They say to let the bottom of the drum ride on the ground and that cuts about 1" off the ground. If I raise it up a bit it's almost impossible to get both cutting drums even...

    Today, would you buy an EV vehicle.

    We have a plug in EV Ford, had it for 5 years, zero problems with it. Depending on how / where you drive it will go 25 or so miles before the engine kicks in, around town driving it lasts longer. Also have a Tesla 12kw solar system, 28 panels and 2 - 12kw Powerwall batteries. With net metering...

    Would You Loan It Out?

    I lent a friend the post hole digger, I used a piece of rebar as a pin, I know... told him about that. It ended up breaking his PTO and the gearbox of the digger. I never asked for it back.

    Do you take it to the dealer for maintenance or do it yourself.

    The only time the dealer worked on my tractor was when we were clearing out a area and had no business using it in there. It got hung up on a stump, the hydrostatic pedal mechanism got all bent up and the tractor couldn't go anywhere. They came, somehow got it freed up, took it back to the shop...

    DPF Regeneration driving me crazy...

    Foul a plug? Can't happen with any ECU engine. Outside of it being a beater that is.

    DPF Regeneration driving me crazy...

    I have a 2014 VW TDI, regens when I'm pulling up the driveway most times. Put it in the garage, no problem, the fans just run till it cools down. No smell, no issues. Warms it up for the dogs. Truck does regens also, the only issue I have is the amount of fuel needed for a complete regen, in the...

    why so many jeeps now on road?

    Maybe because people don't want SUV's and a small jeep is close in size to a car? OR they believe the advertisements and picture themselves flying over mountain passes, forging streams, plowing through snow drifts, driving to that secluded spot by a stream where they setup a tent and watch the...

    Farm UTV/RTV Purchase

    One other thing, lots of talk about the dump bed. Only used that a few times, if anything needs loading and dumping I always go to the tractor, 1000% easier.

    Farm UTV/RTV Purchase

    Have a 2016 Polaris 570, have used it every day, never had any problems. Did change out the clutch for a DuraClutch, well worth it. Have a 30 gal water tank and feed boxes in the back. Can't imagine how it would be working the place without it. We looked at a Honda a few months ago, have 3 Honda...

    HYDRAULIC CONTROL VALVE

    Fixed it today. Took the unit apart, there is basically nothing in there except the end of two cables that have a round end that fits in a cap that can move them up or down. How they justify a $980 price for it is beyond me. The cables end up in a big cast valve assembly that has the...

    HYDRAULIC CONTROL VALVE

    Original owner, have over 1,000 hrs in the seat so I know how it works and feels. It started sticking a few months ago. Just a slight bit, it would almost return to the the center position if you let it go. The function is curling the bucket up, not raising it. Now it sticks with a strong...

    HYDRAULIC CONTROL VALVE

    The control valve for the front end loader sticks when I pull it towards me. It feels like it clicks into place. All the other directions are fine, nice and smooth, let go of the arm and it will go back to center. I haven't taken it apart yet, but have opened up the rubber boot and sprayed...

    Pto issues wont turn on was running and stopped

    I can't turn the PTO shaft at all, something inside must have let go. Can you find a parts symmetric?

    Pto issues wont turn on was running and stopped

    You could test the wires on the switch. Jump them and see if that works.

    Rebuild a Starter

    The starter in my 2011 NH Boomer 35 is acting up. The price for a new one is $1,060, the dealers also sell a rebuilt one for close to $700. Crazy prices. I couldn't find a after market one anywhere and there is no such thing as a rebuild kit. Can't find anyone in the area that rebuilds starters...

    Engine dies going up a hill

    Have a Boomer 35, starts and runs great. Have a path down a hill to the creek, about 120' long and is pretty steep. The past few times I've used it, the engine dies out going back up the hill. Not a lack of power die, more like a lack of fuel problem. Normal hills and inclines are no problem. It...

    Stablize a 3 pt hitch

    The arms on my 3 pt hitch move quite a bit, sideways movement. They have the NH quick hitch setup, there seems to be quite a bit of play at all the connection points. I like the ability to being able to adjust the width of the arms so I really don't want to replace the adjustable arms with a...

    Dead Boomer35

    Tractor was working fine, got off to load some stuff in the bucket and it shut off. It won't turn over now, all the lights come on like normal, but the starter isn't getting power. It's a 2012 model, no past issues. I'm thinking it's a safety switch somewhere. Put in a few hours trouble shooting...
