I agree with 5030. You're talking about an older turbo diesel in a small car. Different animal than the modern petrol burning 1/2 tons that are being discussed here. My day DD a early 00's Beatle TDI for several years. The fuel pump is the issue on those engines. I generally do oil changes...

Rarely do I buy HF anymore. HF has become too proud of their products. Your reputation is built on being budget, cheap tools. You better stop pricing yourself in the same league as other name brand tools that are now made in the PRC or Taiwan. Why would I buy a set of Icon wrenches for the same...

You may want to recheck that year model if you're in the states or likely the NA market. Over here I'm pretty sure MF replaced the 2600 series with the 2600H series in 2015 as they had to go to tier4 engines. The 2635 Simpson 4 cylinder is not tier4, while the 2607H's (model that replaced the...

I have wondered this with some JD's. Not deleting emissions persay, but running more preferred emissions. In 2015 JD added a DPF to their 3 cylinder 5E series. (I own a 5075E, so I don't want to speak on what or when they added any given emission systems to any other given machines, as I don't...

Hmmmm.... I've heard that early DEF diesels could often use real pee, but never knew water would work, or that trucks as modern as 2016 could fool the system. Good to know.

No reason that you can't go from conventional, to synthetic, then back to conventional. Now sometimes you are required to use synthetic. DEF for example. Basically you've got conventional peepee that comes from organic creatures, and then you've got man made synthetic peepee that is made in a...

Absolutely. A proper 3/4 setup is a whole different ball game. Kind of like with a tractor you're better off having the right tool for the job. If you're looking to plow 600 acres worth of fields then you're 55 HP tractor isn't as ideal as a 400 HP tractor, but if you're looking to maintain your...

Well I honestly doubt they will be coming by to get the tank anytime soon knowing this companies reputation, and people claiming to have to keep pressing them to get their tanks out their yard. If they do however come get it before I run the gas out then they'll need to unhook it, and I'll hook...

Okay y'all. This: https://a.co/d/2Db5xgi And this: https://a.co/d/87NhSlP Netted me this:

Try doing this with a 1/2 ton. The trailer weight alone would possibly have a 1/2 ton bottoming the bumpstops out on the rearend. Admittedly when I bought this tractor new, JD delivered it the same as it's configured in this picture with the tires filled, and the FEL, weighing probably 8,500+...

We used 60 HP Farmtrac 665's to operate a Gribaldi & Salvia DM207 for years. This is a 9.5' disc mower. My 5075E had 0 issues with it. I would even take the FEL off for an easier to maneuver, and less bounce ride in the bumpy fields. Unless you just get reckless l, hauling butt on bumpy ground...

Hooking up my old tank is an excellent idea. It's probably going to sit out here for a long time. Any idea what kind of threaded ends will fit these 325 gallon home tanks? Thanks,

Someone was saying that gas companies aren't allowed to take gas out of another copies tank, but IDK for sure.

I'm hearing mix, but not positive feedback on them fully reimbursing you for gas in the tank. That got new ownership a few years back, and the new people seem to not be so good. I'm not the only one I know of who is on the outs with them, switching to someone else. They're just not pleasant to...

Is there any way to do this. I recently switched propane companies, and the old company hasn't come to get their tank back yet. Right now both tanks have about 30% propane in them, and I'd love to keep the old gas I paid for. When they installed my new tank yesterday they wouldn't/couldn't take...

I always called male Yeast Infections, the Athletes Balls.

LS oil pans are know to start leaking. I've not had one start leaking on me, but I know people who have, and it's a PITA to fix if you're a DIY'er. Ford EB (especially the GEN1 2.7L EB which was notorious for developing leaks) are known to sometimes develop leaks as well.

This is pretty much it. The government CAFE regulations have forced the automakers to put boosted 6 cylinder engines in large trucks and SUV to try and meet government regulations. Rather they really achieve better MPG's in the real world is irrelevant, as they fool engine dyno's and whatnot to...

They definitely perform even though I've no experience with them personally in a performance car. One correction I need to make is the 14/15 Z/28 also uses Multimatic, and not MRC. I just learned this, and always thought they used MRC. Here's a list of car with Multimatic dampers. The new GTD...

You've got to be really hardcore to want to ride around in a ZLE. Extremely capable track car, but you can't name too many other OEM cars that have been sold with a stiffer setup. I'd rather daily a 00 CobraR. A SS 1LE is basically a regular ZL1 with a SS engine, and .5" smaller front brake...

What was causing your MRC to malfunction? I had a 2019 Camaro SS 1LE and found the MRC to be amazing. That car handled like it was on rails, while offering one of the best highway rides I've ever experienced. I've never ridden in a more comfortable riding car, that came anywhere close to being...

Aluminum, and composite body panels are nothing new. My 03 F150 has an aluminum hood. Several panels on my old SN95 Mustangs and GEN4 Fbody Camaro/Firebirds were either aluminum or composite. It's not a new thing. My wifes 17 F150, and my 18 F150's are holding up great. Aluminum can corrode, but...

Agreed. In one sense more power is never a bad thing, but in another sense can you use that much power in your chassis? For example I was at my old dyno shop getting my 03 Cobra tuned years ago, and a guy there had a Miata that he had swapped an old Ford 302 in and had a Kenne Bell blower on...

Sorry for my part in derailing the thread. If you're a Ram fan, and don't mind not having a V8 then the new Hurricane I6 is a nice, refined, strong unit. IMHO compared to the other boosted 6's I think it's competitive. They're all smooth, refined, torquey engines, and one didn't stand out as...

You've never jumped a tractor off with a gas truck? You can tell that to my 03 Lightning which has towed plenty of Mustangs and Camaros, and hauled dirt bikes, etc. I've seen multiple Modular F150's with over 300K, even your 3V's that have been maintained correctly will do it no problem. You...

No, I don't think that's it. Saying someones wife must be a powerlifter because she has nice guns is not a compliment. That would be like if you posted your wife, (which I was just trying to show the truck, and my wife was just in the background) and she has big boobs, and I say something like...

Are you really dumb enough to think that in 2024 an OEM can legally put an external winch on the bumper of a full-size truck from the factory? I mean are you this ignorant, or are you just speaking from emotions on what you wish they would do? Grow up, and use logic to determine why OEM's don't...

For one Ford's better than Dodge. Two, IDGAF, tell that to the people calling the shots at Fiat. Three, you still have almost a half a ton extra over your front axle. Different springs and shocks to compensate for added weight only go so far, and performance will suffer with that weight...

Well then tell that to Dodge, homey. WTF do you want me to tell you? Do I think that the Dodge employees are correct in saying that the Cummins won't house with the winch? Yes. Do I think that the winch is so important to the Power Wagon to not delete it if they really wanted to offer the...

I don't think you're a dumb person, but I do feel that you're trying to dumb yourself down appearance wise on here just to quote me. You really don't know? You know what a Raptor is, a TRX? IDK this is just common modern truck guy knowledge I guess.

Why? You're just adding 800-900 lbs to an O/R focused truck. The only time I want a diesel is for towing. Nothing else, especially when talking modern day diesels with emissions. If I'm wanting good MPG's and don't mind sacrificing performance GM's 3L is a viable option. Sometimes I do need...

Here's my opinion of the Hurricane engine, it's better than the 5.7L Hemi, all day. Do I desire one? No. For whatever reason I just don't warm up to the Rams. I think Ram gives you the most features and niceties for the $ you spend, they handle well on the road, they drive smaller than they are...

It's gotten really stupid. Even in the last decade it's gotten crazy. Back in 2016 I looked at a 2015 Ram Power Wagon. This truck either had 38K miles, and they wanted less than $36K, or it had less than 36K miles and they wanted $38K. Either way it was a good price even in 2016, and I wanted to...

I'm not sure off the top of my head. I thought Deere introduced the power shuttle transmission in this class of tractor with the 5X10 series back in the late 90's, maybe 99 I think? I think Deere was the original ones to introduce it in this class, but I can't guarantee that. I assume it was the...

I think it was an issue with improper flow is all I can guess. It would shuttle if I was going slow, and babied the F to R or vice versa, and not just quick throws, but during normal operation it would kick the neutral. The high pitched whine was worse than not shuttling, as I could use the...

JD recommends changing the fluid after the first 300 hours, then I think every 600 hours. Obviously it was an issue for me, and I was told by the mechanics at JD that screen clogging is a pretty common issue that they see, and that I could either pay them to fix it, or change the fluid, and...

The only issue my 18 5075E ever gave me was my shuttle wouldn't go forward to reverse and vice versa without kicking into neutral, or using the clutch. It would also humb or squeal sometimes. Turns out the screen filter in the transmission likes to clog especially during breakin, and changing...

Lol. Now you're trying to go at someone else. Nice! 👍

I'm sorry VirginBill, weren't you the one who went to busting my balls for no reason 2-3 months back? Yeah, I'm sure that goofy, "I've got a lawnmower tractor," avatar was you. I don't even remember what the topic was about. You were goofy enough to set yourself up on here to be the brunt of a...

I bought my 18 5075E, 12x12, MFWD, convertible brand new for $36,200, but it's no longer 2018, and prices have gone up, but I think now is not a bad time to buy in this economy. It's a good machine with some good weight for a tractor in its class, but yeah the 520M is a lot of loader for this...

Lol. You're one one who puts his lawnmower in his avatar.... 😒

I was wondering the same thing.?.? I lost my virginity on Halloween of 98 when I was 16. Maybe look into becoming a passport bro, and taking a trip to the Philippines to find a good, traditional bride if these western women aren't really feeling you. IDK, but I'd definitely try losing your V...

I've got to be honest, in todays economy you might can pick up a decent log splitter from somewhere like Northern Tools for less than you can build it for. When you factor in the cost of steel, the cost of a strong hydraulic cylinder, the cost to plumb it, the 3PH. (assuming it's not a pull...

When I was a kid my grandpa had a Hardee bush hog. I was born in 1982, and it definitely predated me, but it was always a ready good unit. (I'm guess it was probably made in the 60's or early 70's) My dads brother still has it. I ran into him probably a couple years back, and in talking with him...

I don't think I would risk lifting that much weight if you need to lift it high up. Tractors with FEL's are for sure not forklifts. What you don't want to do is die.... At least not because your tractor flips over on you, or your loader collapses, etc. I wonder what it would cost to rent a...

I've got a friend I work with who does 0% AR builds as well. I don't for 3 reasons. -I prefer forged receivers to billet. -Forged AR receivers are cheap, and I live about 20 minutes from the main PSA store in Columbia, SC. -I'm a Tool Maker/Die Builder by trade, and don't want to make a hobby...

Yes. I think of engine oils sort of like I think of forged AR receivers. There might be 30-40 different brands of forged AR receivers on the market, but there's only like 3 or 4 companies who actually have the tooling, and are certified to make forged AR receivers that can claim to hit mil-specs...

Good deal, and thanks. I might have to check it out sometime. I'm always shown the blue bottle from Valvoline in Googe searches. Right now I already have bought some synthetic Chevron Delo for my next oil change, as I found it on sale for a good deal last year, and bought it in bulk. I've...

Hmmmm.... It depends more on the person than the brand. Are you one of the people who says things like, "JD sucks, and are overrated, and overpriced, and yeah Trump tariff the heck out of them for wanting to go to Mexico to avoid way overpaying a bunch of unskilled union workers, and they're an...

Got you. It does seem like I heard that in a documentary but can say for sure.

Is that a sister ship to the Fitzgerald? I'm in SC so nowhere close to the Great Lakes, the Edmund Fitzgerald is just famous, and a pretty mysterious, and fascinating wreck. Plus Lake Superior is the largest body of fresh water on the planet so that makes things even more interesting, combined...

Interesting. I've been on this Edmund Fitzgerald documentary trip lately.

I'm partial to Husqvarna saws, but many like their Stihls, and I'm sure Echo, etc. All are competitive with each other when comparing comparable models from these brands. My dad likes his Dolmar more than his Stihls and Husqvarnas. The Dolmar is a nice saw. Makita bought them, so the new Dolmars...

Hmmmm. Non folding ROPS with no lights mounted. Is the exhaust under the tractor, or has it been removed for storage? Maybe it's a Long?

Oh yes. For 1991 they were very respectable. In good conditions you could cox a mid to high 13 second ET @ close to 100 MPH from them bone stock. Again this was while Desert Storm was going on. They were an AWD, 4.3L TT V6, 3,500 lb truck that would scoot. They're somewhat similar to a Grand...

TBN went way down hill in terms of its online setup, and APP.about 6-7 years back. Their old APP was decent. It worked, and was easy to navigate. You could be specific, and easily search for what you wanted, which quit being the case. EDIT: For some reason I was thinking TBN was an abbreviation...

Maybe for year model 98. Starting in 99 the GEN2 Lightning ruled the roost and would easily best a R/T until the Ram SRT10 was introduced in 04. You want a badass OEM truck, look at a GMC Syclone.

Oh, thank God. Those Silverado SS trucks were slow as balls. Made no sense. I knew 5.3L Z71 guys who would out pace them. I'm pretty sure they used a LQ9, and if not it was a LQ4.

He's smilin at cha!!! ☺️ Him just wanted to go for a little tractor ride, and wanted you to son him. 🚜 Nasty little bastards. I hate snakes. I do typically let the non-venomous ones live, unless they won't stay out of my stuff. They do tend to keep the poisonous snakes at bay.

This, but when you're out making hay you start feening for a cab like a basehead feens for a pipe, especially now that I'm in my 40's. I wish we owned a cab tractor. I will admit that small tractors are generally ugly with cabs if that's important.

Are you saying Cub Vadet is the evolution of a Farmall Cub? Yeah, IDK. I never knew MTD owned Cub Cadet. I was a tool maker that worked for the engineers at Husqvarna mainly making one off things for them that generally was to test if they wanted to implement them into production. Moreso making...

Correct. AYP is Husqvarna Outdoor Products. It's been Roper, it's been Electrolux, it's been Frigidare. Now it's Husqvarna. They used to constantly change the name to get tax breaks, but they've been called Husqvarna for probably 15+ years. From what y'all are describing MTD has really, and I...

Personally I'm more of a Kohler fan, but to each their own. Kawasaki is made in Mississippi I believe, and Kohler is make in Missouri.

Yes, this is an extremely budget machine. https://www.lowes.com/pd/Husqvarna-Yth21K46-21-HP-Hydrostatic-46-in-Riding-Lawn-Mower/3285344 Unfortunately people promote using a good dealership for buying a truck, or a tractor, or guns, or dirt bikes, or whatever, but then there's some things their...

I've not seen that here in Columbia, SC. Generally what I've seen them do is some kind of exchange deal, but IDK, as I haven't messed with it. I can tell you this, most any highend brand, outdoor product dealership that has traditionally had chainsaw, weedeaters, etc brands that they sold on the...

Ding, ding, ding. This! Absolutely! I tell this to people all the time when they say, "I own a Husqvarna, and it's a POS, so therefore Husqvarna makes chitty lawnmowers." Or, "my JD is a POS, so therefore all JD mowers are POS." Some guy was telling me that Husqvarna mowers are POS, and to get...

I think you think I quoted you, but I actually quited Timberfarm, who had quoted me, but y'alls posts looked very similar. Basically what I'm saying is people need to use common sense here. If you're going to promote unions, and force JD to pay their employees in union states X $, and give X...

Here's the reality. When you have several large, established, well regarded small arms manufacturers competing for large, high-profile, government contracts, and in the last 10-15 years all these contracts (like 5-6) are going to one company, that just seems real fishy. Funny how our government...

Yes, it's privately owned by 1,000's if not millions of investors. Basically it's not a government three letter organization. Do you think investors don't want profit? Look I'm a tool maker/die builder. I expect a pay increase sometimes. If I don't get one, and they don't want to listen when I...

Drop your bias, and wake up. Do you really think everything's just black and white? Do you really think that there aren't backroom political actions taken all the time? Has everything we've seen in our government in just the last decade not taught us to question what goes on in our government...

Are you really that naive? My guess is no you're not, you just own a Sig, and you fanboy out over the product. If the government only bought JD tractors is it because they're just so good that Kubota, NH, CIH, MF, etc cannot compete, or are other factors involved? If the government only bought...

Who cares? What kind of profit did Toyota make? What kind of profit did Kubota make? What kind of profit did SIG make? What kind of profit did Google make? Maybe companies should just strive not to make profit? Does JD make that much profit every year, or could there be years where they might...

Unfortunately prices haven't come down too much, they just kind of leveled out, and became the new norm. A truck optioned like my 18 (XLT 302A FX4 with a few options) MSRP'd for under $56K in 2018, and today MSRP's for over $64K. I bought a 2019 Camaro 1SS 1LE brand new in 11/19 for $39,756...

I would say so. I bought my blue 18 XLT 302A in November of 21, and if you remember that in the summer of 21 car prices went sky high, and lots were empty. People were selling their cars and trucks right and left because the dealers were paying a bunch for them to put stuff on their lots...

Ding, ding, ding. Know your value, and quit striking every 3-4 years. They can't afford to pay every line worker a tool makers salary, or every tool maker a department supervisors salary, etc. It's hard for your traditional U.S companies to move down south, as I think the unions are able to...

My guess is JD is tired of dealing with unions. Notice that most foreign companies who have come and built large manufacturing facilities in the U.S in the last 30-40 years have built them in the south, as did Boeing some years back. The only large manufacturer that I can think of that built...

Let's see, in this order (the first being in April of 01) I bought my 95 Integra GSR out of state, my 03 Cobra out of state, my 03 Lightning out of state, my 88 Mustang GT out of state, my 02 Camaro SS out of state, and my last two purchases thru Carvana. One was a 18 F150 302A FX4 crewcab 5L...

Wait, y'all are saying that spraying synthetic horse piss into your exhaust system can eventually lead to big issues and costly repairs?

Odd. You'd think it would be good, yet somehow it's not.?.? https://www.sapiens.org/archaeology/poop-knife-frozen/

Odd. I've owned 4-5 Modular Fords (both 2V and 4V) with 4 threaded heads. 2 of these vehicles being boosted, one at higher than factory PSI's, and I actually still own both my boosted 4 thread head Modulars. (03 Cobra bought in 06, and a 03 Lightning bought in 2010) I've never even seen a spark...

I keep reading Kubota M6070 lately, and not just in this thread. IDK if it's just you, or others as well, but can someone post a link to a Kubota M6070 as I can find no information on the model, even on Kubotas web page? I'm thinking y'all mean Kubota M7060, or possibly M6060?

Just get a Belarus. Such a beautiful machine, plus it's orange like the K tractors. So Kubota/Belarus, Kioti/Belarus. That's like KB's, AKA Kind Budd. 🤔 See the connection?🤷‍♂️ It's a sign. It means you can become a cannabis farmer and grow that potent dank! 💩 Yeap, that's what you need. A Belarus!👍

The 2023/2024 5E 3 cylinder machines did do away with the DPF in favor of a DOC. I agree that I would rather have basically just a catalytic converter that constantly just burns off evil soot particles, than a $3,000+ muffler that collects the soot, and stores it until a computer tells the...

The 5E and M60 are main competitors to one another. It's like Mustang vs Camaro. It's easy to see when you go look at them. A 5075E is the M7060's main competitor and vice versa. I believe the M4-71 is an upscaled M7060, that has a few extra niceities and features, but at their core they are...

Are y'all high? One of the best things to happen to Ford and GM is the 10R80/10L80/10L90. Any given vehicle with a 10R80 will easily outperform the same vehicle with a 6R80. The gear spread in a 6R80 is barely better than an old 4 speed other than its aggressive 1st gear. A 8L90 has nothing on a...

I was recently looking at zero turns, and I liked a lot about the Bota's, but some things I didn't like about them as well. If money wasn't a factor I would have gone with a highend Exmark, or maybe a Deere. Money is a factor though, and for value, and simplicity I would just get a tried and...

Don't the PSD trucks have a lower CP4 failure rate than the old Duramax and Cummins trucks that used to run them?

Lol. Yeah, I've got a lot of Oak, but I always find myself using Bradford Pear wood to get rid of it, but the birds spread their seeds everywhere so I'm always trying to kill them when they're thorny saplings. If you cut down a large Bradford you better kill that stump. Bradfords are like...

I know some people liked them. I just always found them to be a PITA compared to the 5 speed on the 861D I spent most of my childhood on. My grandpa had a Ford Balmar with the SOS, and 2 or 3 other people I knew with older Fords had them as well. They did the job I guess, but if I remember...

Well one of the big reasons I'm liking the Splitfire is it has a very broad PTO HP rating on the gearbox, that falls into my tractors range. I know Woodland Mills offers larger/more capable units than the WC68, and I would love to have one, but like with most things related to more HP the price...

Here's my thought. Land is a good investment. They don't make more of it, and it doesn't get any cheaper. You need to keep up with your land, which you'll likely want/need equipment to do, so in that sense I do think that a tractor and attachments for it, backhoe, bulldozer, trackhoe, etc can be...

I don't have any experience with a 4610 specifically. I have an uncle who has a really nice 2810 MFWD tractor. When I was younger I had other family members with a 2WD 2810, and a 3910. Like TractorTech said, pretty much all old Ford tractors were good machines generally speaking, even though...

Good post. Thanks!

Cool joke bro, but you're new, rocking a Kioti, asking about Titan FEL attachments, so I'll take, "newbs to tractors, trying to figure out how to use one" for 1,000 Alex. I have several vehicles that use multiple reservoirs. Other than my N/A stuff I own an 03 Cobra, and an 03 Lightning. My 88...

Nope. I tried that the other day, and in the above post. It's very selective on what pictures it will take. It's random, even with smaller sized pictures.[emoji2369]

You're correct. It's kind of hidden deeper in the directions, and early on it was easy to find it saying to make sure to fill the reservoir, but that was for the check fluid, and not the flush, and that threw me off, plus I watched a video where a guy with a 6100D was filling at his reservoir...

Yes, I made sure to drain and blow the water out and replace it with coolant.

Why does this site do such a poor job of hosting pictures whenever I try posting them?

Changing the coolant in my 18 JD 5075E and my coolant reservoir is empty. Still plenty of coolant in the radiator. Tractor doesn't have any issues overheating unless I get the coolers and radiator filled with trash where they can't breathe. I started filling the reservoir with water to flush the...

When I was a little kid my grandpa had a Massey Harris. I was so young that I don't remember it that well, but I remember it had the narrow front wheel setup.

Nice thread bump! I hated Long tractors when I was a kid. I worked for a couple people who had them. Honestly they worked, and I never saw an issue with them, but they just didn't look, feel, or sound like the American tractors I was used to. (Fords, Allis Chalmers, JD, Farmall, etc) The...

Massey's still out there. One problem I've seen is dealers who sell multiple brands will give up on keeping lower selling volume brands in stock. For example a dealer near me advertises that they sell Kubota, NH, and MF. When I was tractor shopping in 2018 I went there to inquire about a MF...

BTW, in most ways my 18 is the same tractor as a new 23/24, but there are a few differences other than the front tires, and the emissions setup. Another change I noticed is the older 5E 3 cylinder tractors engage the MFWD with a lever you pull up on positioned under the seat. The new 23/24 I...

In 2023 JD discontinued the 9.5x24, and replaced it with a 11.2x24 as standard on the 3 cylinder 5E's, with an option for a 12.4x24 tire up front if you option for the 16.9x30 rear wheel. In 2023 they also did away with the regen on the 3 cylinder 5E's and switched to a DOC instead of a DPF. A...

As a tool maker/die builder I can safely say that I dig it. Very cool, and nice work OP. Look forward to seeing the finished product. [emoji106]

Would it take to make the front wheel and tire setup on my 2018 5075E, match the wheel and tire setup on this 23/24 5067E? BTW, those new rear wheels look kind of funky, and less attractive than the older wheels. Why the change? They're both mounted with the same 16.9x28 tire. EDIT...

IDK, but I was looking at a new 5067E yesterday, and in most ways it's the same tractor as my 18 5075E, with a few updates. (Mainly the front wheels/tires, and no regen) Still looking at the engine there are some noticeable differences. The fuel filter setup looked different for example, and had...

It happens I guess. Or maybe Howse gearboxs are just POS.?.? This was November or last year, so less than 11 months ago. It's a 6' Howse, and the gearbox went out on it.

Ford Blue and white always looked better than NH's blue/white/gray/black/yellow. For example a brand new Ford 3930 or 4630 looks better than a brand new New Holland 3930 or 4630. The old blue Fords were some good looking machines. I do find that some of the JD 5000 series tractors that had...

Here's a 9' dick I saw advertised on Tractor House that's branded International. I guess anyone can get the D.?.?

Agreed. I don't know if all Timken bearings are made in the U.S., but all the ones I've bought are. Koyo is a Japanese company, but there's a Koyo plant that makes bearings close to where I live in Orangeburg, SC.

That seems kind of stupid for a tractor. The only benefits that the aluminum housing would have is to lower the weight for transportation reasons, or if they wanted to dissipate heat from the rearend more effectively. Usually a lower tractor weight is not a desirable thing, especially if...

The one I use the most is, "that's what she said."

The only example of where aluminum is stronger than its cast iron counterparts that I can think of is Fords Teksid aluminum 4.6L blocks. (96-98 Mustang Cobra block, and some 99 Mustang Cobras got left over Teksids as well. Can't remember if any Lincolns used Teksids or not) They were straight up...

I think I'm going to cut out the piece of large angle that's holding the center tubing together, weld in a section of round tubing in its place, and then probably run maybe a .25x2.5x2.5 square tube between the axles on top of that to brace it even more. Act the same way a subframe connector on...

No, gotten to where I'll rock with battery powered hand tools. (Drills, weedeaters, impacts, chainsaws, hedge trimmers, etc) No pneumatic hoses to hassle with, no gas or premix to fill, no tuning necessary, no cords to pull, or plugs to foul. If the battery's charged just pull the trigger. They...

I generally buy it at O'Reilly's, but here's a link for it at Summit. Anywhere that sells RP either has it, or can get it. It's good oil, and is 100% synthetic. I use to use it in my 2 stroke dirt bikes when I rode, and I still use it in my chainsaws and weedeaters...

This was my dads, dads old wagon. My grandpa passed away in 1994. Me and my dad dug it out of a bunch of overgrowth today. I want to rebuild it. I have 3 daughters who take after their dear old dad, and love tractor rides, so I'm sure they'll love riding on a hay wagon pulled by a tractor. This...

Why not? The only way to get a small MERIKA made tractor is used. Or maybe you want an old Ford, or International, or pre-CNH CIH or NH, or old Allis Chalmers are the bomb, or you want to experience the joys of using ether to cold start an old JD with a I6, or maybe you like the Farmall M vs JD...

Generally I use Royal Purple 2 stroke oil.

First quality doesn't necessarily equal reliability. With that said I don't trust that list. If talking reliability they put Buick, Mazda, and BMW in a top 10 most reliable list. Look I love GM as much as I do Ford, but the Colorado's 3.6L/8L90 doesn't have the best reputation. I don't feel...

Number sent.

You haven't even driven a Yota past 120K miles, and you're proclaiming them to be the most reliable thing ever? I never said Toyota's are junk. Toyota's generally make good stuff IMHO. I did say Tundras are turds, and Toyotas reliability is overrated based on stereotypes.

Are you mad you tactical backwards gaf? Are you too stupid to realise I wasn't threatening you, but speaking in general? Would you like to speak over the phone if you've got some beef with me that you're needing to get off you shoulder?

I absolutely do place a woman with a nice ass over ones with big titties. WTF is wrong with you? Do you not like a girl with an onion booty? I'm calm, but don't get smart, and try to act cute at my expense. Especially when your ass has nothing else to contribute to a topic other than trying to...

I know what you're saying. I used to be an import guy when I was a kid. I remember showing up to the TF&TF premier in my Integra GSR thinking I was the bomb. I used to push the, " imports are way more reliable than domestics" crap. The reality is my 95 GSR burnt oil like a straight mofo, and...

I personally wouldn't want a max payload truck. The bed/cab/drivetrain configuration is more suited to a company truck as opposed to a personal truck that you daily, and haul your family in, etc. Still these numbers are crazy. A 1/2 truck is supposed to be able to haul 1,000 lbs of payload in...

Correct. Back in 2018-2020 at least, Ford offered a tow package, (which my truck has) and on top of the normal tow package they offered a max tow package which before 21 could only be had with a 3.5L. With the max payload trucks, the 5L was rated to carry an extra 40 lbs (3,230 lbs, vs 3,270...

Yes an 18 F150 with the 5L, and 3.73's in a crewcab/4x4 configuration is rated to tow up to 10,900lbs. Like you said in 18 only the 3.5L EB was offered with the Max Tow package. The 21+ trucks can get you a Max Tow with the Coyote, and it's rated to tow 13,000 lbs with a crewcab/4x4...

What's irrational about a F150 with a Coyote? It's straight ballzy as a mofo when combined with the 10R80. Tows just fine. My 3.73 equipped truck averaged about 17.8 MPG before I switched to E85. It's rated to tow right under 11K lbs without going with some undesirable bed/cab configuration. BTW...

Why, because Toyota people say so? I've had way better reliability from my American vehicles than my Japanese one. (All Honda, and no Toyotas though) My boss bought a brand new, first year GEN2 Tundra, and had to replace 3 wheel bearings in the first year. When I asked if it was all the same...

Me saying that the Japanese economy wouldn't sell enough Kubotas locally to support themselves as a business is me **** on Kubota? I lived in Okinawa for 3.5 years.

BTW check out this video: And this video: And this video: And this video: Now watch this video:

Cool story bro! How about you post a link instead. 5.7 seconds isn't all that fast in 2023, especially when you're rated at over 580 lb-ft, but yes the GEN2 5.7L trucks won't run 5.7 second 0-60 times. BTW do they make compound boost kits for the new 3.4L/hybrid motor V6 trucks because by saying...

Holy S, y'all are some F'in idiots. Tundra is not more American than F150. A quick Google search on the most U.S made vehicles will quickly verify this. First of all this is based on a % of components used in a vehicle that's manufactured in the U.S. F150 is #8 on the list of most U.S made...

Not sure if Hardee makes anything hydraulic that's not a disc harrow, or bushhog or mower like the highway department uses to cut ditch banks and whatnot, but they do make pretty good box blades and scrape blades. Made in Loris, SC. https://www.hardeebyevh.com/landscape-garden

Well, not really. Cutting green grass is highly unlikely to ignite it due to a cancer stick unless it's extremely dry out... Now tedding, raking, or baling dried grass you may have a point. Still you go back 40-50 years, and probably 90% of farmers smoked. You need to be responsible with your...

Why do you feel that wildlife is only on a video game system? I see tree rats, and sky possums around my house all the time. Rabbits, land buzzards, Amadillos, snakes, field mice, deers, raccoons, turkeys, etc are common as well. If you go looking you can find wild hogs, gators, coyotes, foxes...

I don't think you need to worry about John Holmes rising up from the grave, and man raping you for smoking. If smoking leads to the big C then I feel that we'd have a lot more ******, and gay men advocating for cigarettes. Why is it taboo to smoke Cigarettes? It's okay to be racist against...

For me and others it's at XBOX. For many others it's at Playstation or PC.

How about, "gender is not biological, rather it's a social construct."???

If you plan on installing a cancer stick lighter in your tractor for smoking purposes then good on you. What's up with the exclamation point? Are you going to stop eating fried chicken because it makes you fat, and helps lead to heart attacks? I don't smoke.... 85% of the time. Still smoking is...

You see them all the time in Red Dead Redemption 2.

That's called an ugly snake..... But then again they all are.

Sickle mowers are made for hay, and pretty much not much else. They're kind of like a disc mower in the sense that you generally don't want to use them outside their intended use as they're not really great tools for handling abuse. Yes they'll knock down some small saplings in your hayfield...

IDK, both my LaserZ and 5075E will about throw you out the seat if you hit big bumps or holes you don't see while going too fast. Also I'm not talking about suspension seats. Many of these newer highend ZT's have gone to a 4 wheel coilover suspension setup, or having the operator platform...

Just to update this, I got the mower fixed. What had it locked up was the clutch pulley on the crankshaft had locked up which kept the engine from spinning. A new pulley, and it's back to running like a top.

This. I would not mess with some finish mower on a 100 HP tractor, running AG tires. You own a lot of acres that you're trying to keep looking like a yard. That means you must be a baller, otherwise you'd just dedicate 2-3 acres towards the yard, and the rest as just something to bushhog. When...

Both machines components are made in India, and they are both assembled in Grovetown, GA which Grovetown is just part of the greater Augusta area.

You didn't. You're just one in a long list of people own claim that E stands for economy. No one claims that their F150 XL is their economy model truck. It's their base model truck is the common description. Economy didn't become the popular way to describe a more basic optioned machine until JD...

Mo1 seems to have a better grasp on what a 5E is than most on the internet. First "E" doesn't stand for "economy" in the JD lineup of tractors. Nowhere has JD (I'm not talking about some stupid JD salesman working at any given dealership who's subscribed to the "E for economy" narrative found on...

I prefer the JD Polyuretha grease. I even use it for packing the wheel bearings on my trucks. Good stuff. I used to always use Redline grease which was also good, but I prefer the JD grease.

Here's a video of it trying a fire. I need a borescope.

Yes, oil is full, and looks clean on the dipstick. Oil is only one full cutting on this oil change. Actually got the engine to spin but it feels tight, and didn't fire. Valvetrain looks great.

Agreed. The valvetrain under the valve covers looks great..... Unfortunately

I wanted a 2607H. IMO it's the best looking tractor in its class. It's the closest new tractor to being like the older Fords I grew up on. Still when I was shopping tractors in 2017/18 its value sucked compared to the Kubota M7060, and the JD 5075E. Oh, and it's value sucked compared to a MF...

Sorry for not replying. I'm not getting notifications sent to me. Anyway I checked the fuses and one was blown. Great, easy fix. Well come to find out the engine's locked up. Probably blew a fuse when it was locking up. Odd how when it cut off it sounded mechanically fine, just like it was...

Yeah those are Milton P style fittings. I bought these in the pack to get rid of the 1/4 adaptor that the impact comes with. These new fitting have a 3/8 NPT which make the 1/4 NPT adaptor unnecessary. I need more compressor as I have the old HF 21 gallon/2.5 HP compressor which maxes out at 125...

The Thor is rated at 1600 lb-ft in breakaway torque, and 940 lb-ft of working torque. I'm restoring an old Dearborn disk plow, and most of the bolts are eaten up with rust, and this thing hasn't struggle with a one of them. Even the 7/8-9 square bolts are no issue for it. It's a ballzy SOB...

Yeah, it makes no sound. No clicking when you turn the ignition switch. It's dead to the world. The first time it cut off it just ran out of gas in that tank. The second time it cut off it mimicked the way it would cut off if it was running out of gas. My first thought was there's no way that...

I was cutting my grass today and after about an hour my lawnmower petered out. No issue, that gas tank is empty, the other is full, so I switched over to the other tank. About an hour and a half later it petered out again the exact way it does when a fuel tank starts to run out. I was like...

My tractor regens every 100 hours like clockwork. It won't go over 100 hours without a regen. I thought I was going to hate this regen crap, but it's been pretty trouble free for me. I would say I spend more time at idle or lower engine speeds than I do self-regenning at WOT as well. But yeah...

JD and Kubota costing more than other brands may be true to a certain extent, but is also a stereotype. In 2017-2018 I was in the market for a new tractor. I wanted a 75 HP, convertible, MFWD, loader tractor. So as we do in the times we live in I jump on the interwebz to start my research...

Going out and looking for cows hidding in the woods or a ditch in any given field and running them to different fields with your tractor can be kind of fun. I didn't know bulls were so intimidated by deer.... Ummm deere.

TTT. Just thought I'd show y'all what I ended up getting. 2018 5075E 4WD with the 520M loader and I had them add the knob that controls the shift speed on the PowrReverser. After looking at and driving it, the 2600 series Massey, and a M7060 I decided I liked the Deere the most. I can give...

Blubby loves the new Deere. He seems to be under the impression that it's his tractor. He also likes laying in his drinking water.

I want to know what y'all options are when comparing these two tractors. I'll give you my opinions of what I like better about both tractors. I've been bouncing back and forth on which to buy for a while now and I like them both. I've looked at the current tractor market for about a year now...

I must disagree. He's Lab and somekind of Bull Dog. The animal control center thinks he's half Lab/half Pit as that's apparently become a popular mix and they claim that's what he looks like. He looks almost just like my old dog I had as a teenager Scooter who we got as a puppy. She was a...

This is my new Labrabull. (half Lab and half Pit Bull) He just kind of showed up about a month ago eaten up with ticks. It's like someone just dropped him off on the side of the road hoping someone would pick him up. You can tell he was a house dog and that he's accustom to rides in cars as he...

This is more of a curiosity question than an "I'm looking at buying one of these" question even though I'd rock a 3930 if I found one I like for the right price. What was the point of Ford building the 3415's? Even as a kid looking at the in brochures at the Ford dealership when these were new...

Thinking about buy one of these in the next few months and was wondering about some of the differences between them. For one what is the reason MF is still building the older 2600 series when they've introduced the newer 2600 H series? Is there a benefit to the larger 4 cylinder on the 2625/2635...
