    Suspension Seat 15 Series

    I need to replace the original seat with a more comfortable one. My dealer doesn't have one which is a direct fit. Has anyone replaced their seat with a suspension type? How difficult was it to do? I believe all of the 15 series used the identical seat.

    Silly Ceiling Fan Switch

    In 1980 I bought a ceiling fan, no light. It has a pull switch which at the time required one pull on the chain to turn on or off. Fast forward to about 2015; ever since then it takes 5 pulls to turn it on, one to turn it off.

    Pat's Easy Hitch Repairs

    Has anyone who owns one of these ever had the need to remove the roll pins that secure the latch mechanism? I bought a repair kit which necessitates driving them out. I'm wondering if once I obtain the correct size punch, does it matter from which side the pin should be driven out? Does it come...

    Solar Panel Controller Needed

    I was given a brand new Sunsei model SE1500 solar panel. Evidently the owner failed to buy, or lost the controller. I saw this one on Amazon, along with others. All I want to know is if it will work with my panel. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B072MMDY4F/ref=ask_ql_qh_dp_hza Any experts on...

    2615 Glow Plug Controller

    When I turn the key to heat the plugs, the light no longer appears on the dash, and after 10 seconds there is no longer a shutoff click, as before. This causes hard starting at lower temps. I know the fuse is good, but there is no power to the plugs until I attempt to start the tractor, at which...

    Backhoe  Mahindra 3710 by KMW

    The access panel for the lever mechanism is practically impossible to reinstall. The one on mine is actually to big and so tight, it takes two people to wrestle it into position for lining up and inserting the bolts. Am I the only one with this problem?

    1979-1982 Ford Courier or Mazda Cam Gear Nut

    Somehow the nut holding my cam gear in place came off and fell into the oil pan. In the process the timing chain also broke. It is a very special hardened steel nut. It is chewed up and may be too unreliable to use. I'm hoping by the grace of God, someone on here has one or knows where I can...

    Leaking Boom Cylinder 3710 Backhoe

    There is a slow leak in the cylinder. I've been quoted $125.00 to repair. That sounds outrageous, as it seems to me a seal kit should be all that's needed. I was also told there is not a kit for the cylinder, just bring it in and they will replace needed parts. I'm not sure I believe this...
