    Cetane Boost additive for diesel

    Hot climate hood vent-Ford F550

    We did this to improve A/C, cooling and battery life. A/C improved a lot. Too soon to tell on batteries. Truck idles a lot. Anybody else try this? This was the cheapest way I could think of with no body work.

    Mowing  I don't like this hitch JD MX8

    I have never liked this hitch set up because it eventually ruins the draw bar and it is just an inferior design. I have thought about a ball mount trailer hitch style. I noticed Bush Hog uses a straight hitch, but ariculation is needed for ditch and creek crossing. I am open for a solution or...

    Factory gooseneck Hitch or B&W turnoverball?

    I had the B&W setup in a Ram 2500 , 2006 and liked it. Now I have a 2014 F250 that does not have the GN factory hitch ( I think it is a Reese) and wish it did. That said, do I install the B&W or go with something else? Thx

    Buying Advice  2013 Ram 1500..what ratio?

    Should I option the 3:73 rear end ratio instead of 3:55 with the new 8 speed transmission? Will fuel mileage suffer much? Mostly running unloaded, but would rather have a little more snap off the line and Tow ability. 80% city driving.

    JD 3520 brand new ....FELoader and top and tilt Bleeds down.(drifts down)

    My 3520 must have a problem in the control valve. It has the electro diverter switch for the remotes, in my case top and tilt. If I let it sit with loader raise it will drift down 8" in an hour. Same with the top and tilt. Anybody else had this problem on the 3x20 series?

    My galvanized tank rusted out and I would like to try stainless. Does anyone have a good source? If I can't get stainless, I will go with fiberglass. I don't want a bladder, just the tank. My tank lasted only 10 years and we have good water... Thx

    Ford Raptor- anybody have one?

    I was considering this as my next pickup. Are they that much better? Horrible mpg? No trailering over 9k and not for long distances. Are they a pain to park with the wider stance? I am sure there are a lot of other forums that have covered this, but I like the opinions of TBN members...

    3520 with a mx5 shredder...limited lift

    I just bought a 3520 and an mx5 mower. I am not happy with the low clearance of the mower in the fully raised position. Has anyone remounted the hitch pins lower on the mower to get it to lift higher when raised? I mentioned it to the dealer and it was kind of an "oh well..."

    John Deere 665 Tiller

    I am really pleased with my new tiller. Yes, I paid extra for the matching paint, but parts will be available for a long time. I must say I was disapointed when I had to cut the drive shaft to make it fit our 820. I was not expecting that, but I have since heard it is fairly common. It took...

    Keeping mice out of equipment...best deterrent?

    My particular problem is the engine compartment on my mini excavator. The mice are chewing the insulation and building nest. All equipment is now indoors on concrete. Do those sonic plug in devices work? Don't really like poison because of dogs and kids. Thanks

    5425/5525 John Deere issues on filter/separator

    Has anyone found an alternative to the stock fuel water separator? If the machine sits a week it is hard to start with lots of white smoke. I have read an extensive post in the past on this, but it looks like all they are doing is replacing old bad parts for new bad parts. I can't believe JD has...

    Been looking hard at the John Deere 3520, but want to comparison shop. What is a comparable model to the 3520 JD with a 300cx(heavy duty) loader? I want theHST transmission. Always been green, thought about NH, but think Kubota might be a good alternative. Is Kubota that much less in price...
