Can anyone help identify this box blade? I'm looking at buying one and came across this one. It looks like the end plates are fairly heavy duty. Thanks folks!

Okay, so I made some progress this evening. It's been raining all day so it's nice and cool in the garage. Starting out with this. The grapple frame is made of 2"x1/4" wall and 3"x1/4" wall square tubing. The Hobart 240v machine does a much better job than I'm capable of doing. From...

I'm going to be building a single grapple finger for my FEL forks. I'll be basing it off of Cotech's design. I have a 2"x8" hydraulic cylinder. I've got a set of JD forks that the actual forks attach by having a round bar running through the top of each fork. The fork frame has 2 horizontal...

Picked up this 2007 PJ dump trailer last week. Gooseneck, 78"x14' bed, 15,880gvwr, slide out ramps, spreader gate with barn doors, and a tarp kit. Very nice shape, only used a handful of times. Tires are in great shape, even has original battery in it. Tractor will fit in nicely, can't wait...

About 2 hours over the weekend moving lumber for the wife's 12x24 garden shed/chicken coop I started building. Walls up. Waiting on trusses and siding.

Ok folks, so I spent a gorgeous Saturday changing a suspected back tube in one of the rear tires of my JD4600. The tires are 17.5x24, and I purchase a Firestone tube for $60 at a local tire shop. I also purchased a few tools that I will post links to show you what I used. Here's what I had...

I've had my JD4600 for less than a week now. It came with weights on each wheel and I just assumed it didn't have any liquid ballast so I didn't check the rims for corrosion. I was looking the tractor over tonight in the garage and one of the rims has some corrosion around the valve stem. I...

Woke up this morning and got the tractor unloaded from the trailer. Drove 7 hours to get it, got home about 1am this morning. 2000 John Deere 4600 with 3040hrs, MFWD, 460 FEL, 600lbs of wheel weights, 1 rear scv, also came with a set of forks. Original owner documented every service, guy I...

Tomorrow will be a very loooong day at work! :D I'll be making a 6+hr one-way trip to St. Louis, Missouri area to pick up a JD 4600. Found it on craigslist, owner seems like a super nice guy and it's everything I've been looking for. Hydro, MFWD, 460 loader, pallet forks, has rear wheel...

I've come across a few used 4610's for sale. One has ~2500hrs, the other ~3000hrs. Other than that, they are similar. They both boast 2.0L Yanmar 4TNE84 engines. Assuming basic maintenance (quality oil and filter changes) was performed at the correct times on the engine, approximately how...

Thanks folks. The good thing about a chainsaw mill is the ability to take the mill to the log instead of the other way around. The log in my pic was bucked up into 24" long rounds then loaded onto my flatbed with a sub-30HP Massey Ferguson HST tractor for firewood. One of those rounds in the...

I've been researching tractors over the past few weeks, spent a little time at the JD dealer yesterday inquiring about used tractors. From what I've been reading I should be looking at a 40-50HP tractor, can you fine folks confirm or recommend something different? I'm looking for a tractor to...
