Looks like J.D. has 20% off coupons. Lawn Mower & Gator Sale Offers & Promotions | John Deere US

I saw this tip somewhere here and tried it out. Homemade funnel (milk carton) for the filter change. It catches about 99% of the oil and you can just let the filter fall in after you remove it. It basically has the corner and about 3/4 of the bottom cut off so it fits underneath the lip below...

We just bought a Chevy 2500 Silverado. The title and vin# verify it is a 2000. However it has the 6L gas engine and torsion bar suspension. Some of the parts I needed for it had to come from a 2001. The GVWR /tire tag is dated 3/00. No owners manual. I want to get a gooseneck hitch for it but...

I might look at the wiring for the fuel shutoff solenoid.

I saw an interesting type of drawbar on TV that I hadn't seen before. I thought it looked very useful, but a little expensive. Trailer Hitches, Automatic Hitches, and Hitch Accessories | Goodlettsville, TN And no, I'm not affiliated with them in any way.

On the J. D. website under "Special offers", they have coupons for filter kits for $12 off. Used mine today.....

I ran across this and thought it was interesting. I don't know if has been posted here previously. VINs that start with one indicate the car was assembled in the U.S., two indicates Canada, three Mexico, and four anywhere else in the world. A vehicle's VIN is at the base of the windshield on...

"Modern Marvels" on the History channel has a show on grease coming up.

The starter on my mower quit today (Kohler CV 13S). The dealer wants $172 plus tax for one! Has anyone tried rebuilding one of these? Any recommendations for a source of good used parts? Thanks!

We used my neighbors J.D. model H (late forties) to spread manure this year. The corn was just too high to use one of our trucks. It's still working for a living and sounds great.

I see that our local Walmart has started carrying Mobil1 5w-40 Turbo/Diesel in 4 qt. jugs again.

I have been having an occasional problem with the LX4 blades getting stuck together in the middle when starting the PTO. I was at the dealer today and he told me that J.D. has a fix for it. It apparently involves welding a pair of stops to the pan to keep the blades from turning in. I will let...

I finally got around to installing the cruise control kit on my 2305. It was pretty strait forward and works well, but there is a problem with the early 2305's. The "forward" pedal on the early models does NOT have the mounting provisions for the kit. The dealer ordered a replacement under...

I just got an LX-4 cutter for my 2305 and used it the first time. It works great for cutting the pastures, but the ride was very rough. I ended up with 10 psi in the tires and a piece of plywood with some foam on it between the seat and the rubber cushions. That helped quite a bit. I could mow...

I want to make a swale (shallow, wide ditch) to drain low spots in a pasture. It will be about 300 ft long and will only fall about 16". I will have to be able to mow over it What type of implement should I use and how do I get the correct shape? (I have a Box blade but I don't know how I would...

The local J.D. dealer recommended the Bradco pallet forks as a lower cost option to the ones from J.D. Does anyone have any experience with these from Bradco? http://www.attachment.com/bradco.htm Thanks

I just got a Frontier BB2048L for my 2305. After adjusting the center link as short as possible, the BB was still tilted back slightly. I wanted the scarifiers to be as low as possible to tear up a bunch of sod for a driveway so I wanted to tilt it forward slightly. I talked to the JD dealer who...

I am new to the forum and to the world of JD tractors. The manual for my new 2305 calls for SAE 10W-30 oil for hot weather and SAE 5W-30 for cold. It recommends JD Plus-50. The dealer told me that I should use JD Plus-50 15W-40 all year and that they don't make that oil in 10W-30. I contacted JD...
