Got the new hoses installed tonight and the steering works like it should. Only thing I can think of is that one of the hoses kinked or collapsed when I installed it the first time. I’ll mow some leaves tomorrow night for a few hours and see if the steering is fixed now.

Thanks for the help, have both plugs on the table so that’s not it. I pulled the cylinder again tonight and used shop air on both sides and it moved both ways. Makes me think the cylinder is fine. Cranked the tractor and when working the steering wheel I get fluid out of both hoses. Turn...

It was bought from mckissics. I’ll give them a shout tomorrow unless someone has another idea.

When I cranked the tractor the wheels were centered. I tried turning the wheel to the left but it was firm and wouldn’t turn. Then turned to the right and it was normal. Back to the left and firm. Right again was normal. This time it hit the steering stop and wouldn’t return to the left.

Have a bx2200 that the steering would quit when the tractor got warm. There is a bulletin on this to either rebuild or replace the cylinder. I chose to replace it. After I got it back together it turned to full lock to the right and now will not go back. Any ideas what could have gone wrong.

FUNNY ENOUGH, WE HAVE TONS OF SEAT TIME IN JD SKIDDERS CUTTING MACHINES AND DELIMBERS. CUTTING AND MOVING WOOD IS NOTHING NEW. WHERE THESE TREES FELL WE WOULD HAVE TO CUT A LOT OF TIMBER OR JUST RUN OVER A LOT OF SMALL STUFF. A SKIDDER WITH DUALS ON DOESN'T JUST EASE THROUGH THE WOODS. JUST...

We went out today and got quite a few. We ended up with 17 logs 9’6” and 7 logs 19’. Putting a short log in the forks or grapple and skidding another worked well. We just hooked the long tongs to the top hook on the quick hitch. The jd quick hitch top hook is welded on, the kubota quick hitch...

thanks for all the replies, waiting to hear back on a quote for the winch and will see where we go from there.

picked up a cheap set of 32" tongs and played with two logs we had drug up already. they were 28" and 31" and 22' long. one a red oak the other white oak. just putting the tongs on the hook for the quick hitch worked great. the upside U of the quick hitch and the draw bar keep anything from...

Also I see the model with the remote uses one of the rear remotes, what are you controlling with this and when do you use it? Thanks

Thank you for your reply, good to hear the 4320 is up to the task. Also thank you for the info on the snatch blocks. Would you consider the remote worth the $2000 upgrade. What about synthetic rope for $1000?

Anyone use this model and have any feedback on it, any reason I should look at a different manufacturer?

We sold red oak for $80 ton and white oak for $90 ton 2 weeks ago. I don’t plan to mess with gum or hickory. We have historically sold a lot a timber. just now not cutting any hardwood for the foreseeable future and just managing pine. This will be something completely separate and just...

I made a thread about using log rings to pull logs out of the woods and that has sent me down a rabbit hole of logging winches. We have a large acreage of hardwood timber that we have no plans to harvest. However we have plenty blow down every year and every year talk about how much money is...

I went down today to try this out on two logs I already had pulled out, one was 28” diameter on the small end and the other was 32”. Apparently my tongs aren’t big enough. They wouldn’t slip down far enough and just slid up when I tried to pick up. I’ll look for a larger set this week.

Thanks for the help, the plan is put one 9’ in the grapple if we have room and then skid a 19’. Doing this will cut our number of skids by 2/3

Tractors will be a JD4320 with loaded tires that should weigh around 5,500 lbs when working. the other tractor is a NW Workmaster 75 cab that should be around 6,500 lbs. logs will all be oak, mainly red oak and white oak cut into 9'6" or 19' long. diameter at butt end will range from 18" to...

all of the trees we move are in hardwood river bottoms, we don't have any elevation changes to speak of, the only time I can think of that being an issue would be a creek crossing. I would have to look closer at the tractor but I believe the quick hitch would keep it from going into a tire and...

We had several oak trees blow over this year and block trails so now I need to move them out. I was thinking of building something but then I saw this picture using a quick hitch and tongs. I have tongs so I could do this for free. any reason why I should build/buy something rather than just...

Thanks for all of the help, I put a new stop solenoid on it and it works great now. Thanks again for the help.

Thanks for all the help, Looked at the tractor today and it has three wires for the solenoid, Black, White, Red with black tracer. Testing the three showed it is getting the correct voltage, Black is ground. White 12v when cranking. Red 12v when key released. I ordered a solenoid today...

Thanks for the help everyone, I'll take a look at the coil and look at the wires on it. I saw there are 2 different solenoids, I'll have to get the SN to see which it is.

Helping my grandfather with his early 2000's Kubota BX2200 ready for cutting grass. The tractor will crank and run will holding the key in the start position, as soon as you release the key it dies. I have cleaned the battery connections and charged the battery fully. I don't think it is a...

I'm back on this project and I wondering if I place a T where the front end loader valve returns to the case could I put the fluid there? I believe that would be placing a T between #4 and #5 in the diagram below. Does anyone see any issue with placing a T here and using this as my return...

I looked at the tractor today I believe I see the current return circled in red. I also see two either bolts or plugs. Any idea if these hold something in place inside the housing or are just plugs? I really don’t want to pull them and drop something loose inside. This the the same

It has the 2 quick couplers per valve, these will work fine when using the lane however when stopping the lane shark the centrifugal force of the blade will keep them spinning which makes the motor act as a pump and there is nothing to relieve the pressure. With having it plumbed direct to the...

I don't think that will do what I need. I need to either tee into where the hydraulic fluid returns to the tank or find an extra plug that is not used that goes into the tank. I'll have the tractor at my house in the next week or two to take a closer look. on my JD4320 there was a port...

Trying to help a friend plumb his NH t4.75 for a lane shark. they require a hydraulic line that returns to the case of the tractor rather than through the typical hydraulic port. Does anyone know where this is located on these tractors? Thanks for the help.

swapped the curl and lift lines around coming out of the valve today and it still is leaking on the curl function so I assume it is one (or both) of the curl cylinders needs repacked.

what is the best way to isolate them? just unhook or do i need to cap the lines?

My FIL has a NH t4020 with a 810tl with 1000 hours on it. Just recently the curl started leaking down while running and when off. it will completely leak down in just a minute or two, enough you can watch it and see it move. there is no issue with the boom. If you curl it back it will pull...

Thank you, when I’ve planted clover I also plant either wheat or oats on top, however I plant more clover seeds per acre than the cover crop. I see on the GP model it would still do this. How does that work with the genesis? Do you just adjust the ratio of seeds in the hopper to achieve the...

with the multiple seed boxes on the great plains I assume you can plant 3 different types of seeds at the same time? is this correct? how does the genisis work with planting different sized seeds or seed blends?

mall of our food plots are fields or lanes that are currently established food plots. we have used cultivators, discs and tillers in the past. We have removed all stumps, roots and they have been smoothed out. Then we broadcast and cultipack down. we are looking to improve the plots and...

Thank you, looking at the specs of the genesis 5 the Deere 4700 should have enough lift, hp and weight, where does it come up short or is it just easier on the 80hp? The reason I ask is I have basically the same tractor in the Deere 4320.

A couple of us that hunt together are thinking about buying a no till drill sometime before next spring. Being that they cost as much as a small tractor we don't want to buy the wrong one so hoping some people here can help. we are looking to plant at some time or another corn, soy beans...

I pulled the front cover off the gear box today to remove the seal. when I opened it up a few chunks of metal fell out and several teeth are chewed off. to top if off when I got home somehow the front plate casting broke in the bed of my truck. so it looks like this gear box is headed for the...

Thanks, I assume I need to take the bolts holding the cover off that the input seal is in and then drive it out from the back.

I have a leaking input seal on my bush hog, I'm not sure of the model but the tag on the gear box is below. I have tried searching and haven't been able to come up with the part number for this input seal. any help would be appreciated

not sure now if I want to still just add a motor and pump and work it as is, or swap the plate and splitter positions, or just buy a new one that will do what I need. any thoughts on this?

Thanks for the help. I got down to look at our log splitter and was disappointed to see mine is “backwards”. The splitter is attached to the cylinder and pushed against the flat plate. It is a speco brand.

Thank you for the pictures, that looks great. I'm going to look at our splitter tomorrow and see how it compares. couple quick questions. I see you and lots of the factory log lifts use a wheel to lift the log lift, why do it this way vs. pin direct to the log lift? do you like the controls...

Thank you for those pictures, I really like how that was done and that is exactly what I would like to end up with. any chance you have any other pictures? I see you put a pressure gauge on there, what pressure do you have the relief set at? also do you ever use a 4 way splitter on it or is...

thanks, I'll have to look and see what size cylinder I currently have. I see most of the pumps put up 3,000 psi but the log splitter valves I was looking at are only rated for 2,000. am I missing something with this? also I see most put up the same pressure just different GPM. does this...

I'll try and take a few pictures when I'm back down there and put a new belt on. most of the grass I was mowing is food plots that are planted every fall, that is the only time they are mowed. most of the grass/weeds are knee tall with a few thigh high. I was probably mowing between 3-4 mph...

the idler on mine is not spring tightening, it has an all thread bolt that pulls the idler tight. I like the improvements they made on the 917. bushed sheaves vs splined, 2 belts vs 1 and the spring tensioner.

anyone ever convert a 3pt log splitter to a pull behind with its own motor and hydraulic pump?

it is set to the highest setting. this mower only uses 1 C section belt

The pulleys are aligned however there was some pitting where the belt rides. its not rough anymore but not a machined surface. the belt does stick out above the pulley slightly when new and rides on the sides like its supposed to. after it slips a few times it burns in and slips bad. It...

I have an old ford 907 flail mower that is burning belts like crazy if it gets in taller grass. it sat unused for 10 years or so and recently started using it again. everything seems to spin free. I am using gates belts. it is a C section belt. any ideas where to start looking into this?

This looks like the way to go, but I’m going to have to figure out where everything mounts, I think I need roughly 15” from center of lift arm pins to center of top link pin. the vertical spacing on the holes of my part number 5 is 21”.

Is there any reason I can’t or shouldn’t convert the 3pt mount on my woods RD6000 to look and function like the 3pt mount on my JD mx6 bush hog so it is easy to hook up the quick hitch? Or is there a better way to make it quick hitch compatible. I have enough steel laying around and have a...

Just like everyone else in much of the south we are covered in snow. We have 7 down now with 6-8 more coming today. I need to open the driveway up so my wife can get out Saturday. I have my 7 blade hooked up and my bucket on. Any tips or tricks to not screw up my gravel driveway or general...

Just an update, I did end up going with a 24'(21'+3") 102" wide with drive over fenders. Here is a picture of hooked up empty. I measured the distance from the fender well to the ground, front and rear before and after. I will also take measurements after I get the tractor loaded this...

I've decided on a 14k 21'+3' dovetail equipment trailer with drive over fenders. I originally ordered a bumper pull and it should be in in the next month. They called me back to confirm all the specs I wanted and said they also a goose neck on the same order if I changed my mind for the same...

here is a picture i found on the internet, I'm not around the lane shark to take a better picture but I will this weekend. the modern ag path slayer is built the same way. they do fit both tractors, I have used it on both my JD and also a Mihindra.

I'm getting closer to buying a grapple for my JD 4320 and like the EA grapple for upto 55hp. it looks like you either have to buy it for JDQA or SSQA. I am wondering why cant they have both? I know the lane shark and similar cutters that mount on the loader offer both mounts together so it...

I placed a tentative order on a new 14k 24' (21' flat, 3' dove) with rear fold up ramps today. I got the equipment style with drive over ramps and the full 102" deck. this should weigh in around 3,500 lbs give or take. I think my f-150 is rated around 10,500 so I should have around 7,000 to...

Is there a quick hitch that will fit cat 1 implements that will fit on a cat 2 tractor. My Imatch is only 1-3/8 wide where the lift arms fit and my new holland tractors have cat 2 lift arms that have 1-3/4 wide lift bushings. I don't want a cat 2 width quick hitch as the cat 1 quick hitch...

I have a JD 4320 that is 47hp with r4 loaded tires and 4x4 with the ehydro transmission. with the loader I believe it weighs around 5700 lbs. I would like to add a 6 way hydraulic rear blade but don't know what size to get and what would be to big. My FIL has a 8' I believe modern ag but it is...

I have an old ford 7' flail mower that uses a C53 belt. I have been using a Gates belt but have burnt several off. They only burn off if I get in too thick of grass and don't take the cruise off quick enough. I have searched for a kevlar belt and also clutching cover belt but haven't found...

Is the red arrow where the solenoid screws in?

I made it down today here are the pictures

Have a 70痴 model John Deere 300b backhoe that on the first crank of the day will bust right off easily. However after warmed up the starter has a tough time spinning the motor. The battery is a few years old but even with jumper cables it wont crank. The only way I can get it to crank is to...

I have a jd 4320 with a 400x loader. I致e only had the tractor for a few months so I don稚 have a good baseline however any other tractor I have ever used if you can lift something with the bucket you can curl it. I知 not able to do that. Yesterday I loaded my 6 disc and 6 mx6 bush hog on...

Couldn稚 find the thread where everyone helped get me started but wanted to show the results now that I got my remotes installed and everything appears to work great. I ended up with a 5 valve bank made up of 2 float valves, 2 spring center valves and one solenoid operated valve. The solenoid...

I looked in my fuse box and the slot where the air ride seat fuse is supposed to go is hot but no fuse. Is there wire run back towards the seat for this? I have an open station tractor and I am looking for 12v power switched by the key to power a solenoid and thought this might work if it is...

I plan to add a solenoid operated valve on the rear of my 4320 compact and found this wire connector that is capped and would like to use it. Can someone tell me what it is for. It is on fuse 05 that is the 妬gnition run power fuse. Yellow and red wires just behind the �assenger side of the...

I'm looking to add some LED lights to my new to me 4320 compact. I see there are two wires at the base of the ROPS that appear to be for "work lights". they are powered when the switch is all the way to the right and use the 20 amp fuse. I have a couple questions before I hook into this wire...

I'm picking up my new to me JD 4320 this weekend and want to start planning how I want to do my hydraulic upgrades. I will be using a lane shark on it and with that you have to plumb the return into the tractor tank port vs running it back through the valve. When I hooked up the backhoe last...

I bought a 4320 compact this weekend but wont pick the tractor up until next weekend. I'm planning to load the rear tires and had considered widening the rear tires. Does anyone know the stock width of the 4320 compact with R4 tires? Is the easiest way to widen these tires just switch sides...

Well I made the deal on the tractor, it ended up being $21,000 for tractor, backhoe and all attachments. The attachment are: Backhoe 48” hd quick attach forks 72” disc Mx6 bush hog 55gal pto sprayer 3pt Spreader Imatch quick hitch

That's almost exactly what I'm looking to do. I would prefer the levers to be between the seat and ROPS like below, I'm hoping the 4320 has a little more room than the one you pictured. I used your remote when I put your diverters on my FIL New Holland and liked it. however I think I prefer...

Someone I kind of know is selling a jd 4320 hst compact open station with roughly 300 hours and I believe around a 2011 model. It has a backhoe and some other attachments with it. First is $20,000 a decent price, everything appears to look good with no noticeable problems? Also I would like...

I borrowed my father in laws 6 foot king kutter gear driven tillar, model TG-72-YK. It has only been used a couple times and today I hooked it to a 65hp tractor to start breaking up a food plot we plan to start next year. After about one acre smoke started billowing out of the slip clutch so I...

another question the the knifes, in the picture below i currently have the one on the left marked "1". would the one on the right marked "2" be better for mowing food plots and trails? what is the advantage of each. Sorry for all of the questions just trying to figure it all out. Thanks...

I have been thinking about how to clean up the sides of our roads at my deer camp. We have a couple miles of roads. After a clear cut most are replanted in plantation pine so after 8 years or so they start to bush out into the road so I would like to trim them back a little to keep the roads...

I welded everything up solid tonight and bowed it a little. I should have clamped it down better. I set the forks on and picked up the back of a 5x8 trailer about 24" out on the forks with the forks slid to the center to see the flex of the top plate. It bowed out about 3/16" while lifting...
