OP Sorry to tell you, but that is with every marriage. Every person is different and it does take time to know what is really important and agreeable to each other. But, I think it is important to make rules together so you don't step on each others toes. Also, do most things together. I have...

Looks cooler today. We have started walking the dog in the morning rather than evening because of the heat.

This picture (The first one) belongs on the wall. A little snow and it would be a great Christmas Picture. Then, the next year, put the family in it for another great Christmas Picture. Very Nice

Not broke and plan to stay that way - I'll have water with a slice of lemon.

It is sometimes difficult to find what they are and what they include. I think there is a reason they change the packages every year. That said, I think it is best to look at what features are available.....and what you want (what is a deal breaker if it doesn't have it) and only discuss price...

That is a tough time. Hope it gets better. When my mom passed away, we had a sale and sold what we could, then called a used furniture dealer and sold most everything to them, then dumpster. Save what you want of pictures and memories. You may look for them years to come if you don't. My dad...

Good morning. Cooler weather here is a welcome change. It has been about 3 months since I lost my dog. I think about her and still look for her to be by my side. I have a scheduled trip to pick up a new puppy this week. We will see how that goes. I guess "moving on" are the words that come...

I have a 14" ego Electric. Does well for branches

Might also be aware if there is a early payoff penalty. I financed with Kubota 5 yrs no interest, but if you paid before the 60 months, they cancel your KTAC insurance and refund the unused premium. Then you could insure with their after- paid KTAC insurance. There was nothing wrong with...

Makes you wonder if the other driver was aware of what happened ---or even cared.. Someone was taking of you. Good job.

Welcome to TBN - great place to get a lot of help and information. Most tractors are very good but be sure to buy from a dealer you can trust. Most tractors are only as good as the dealer who supports them.

I'm with Ortimber -- only difference is color and cost. I would be more concerned about whether your tractor can burn biodiesel. Kubota says don't ever burn bio. And if I used farm fuel, it would only be from a place (farming community) where they sold a high volume. I sure want to avoid...

if you are pulling with a 1/2 ton truck you may need to use a weight distribution hitch. That can help a lot if your truck is not level. I WOULD NEVER want to buy a heavy trailer with axles in the center. It is important that the trailer trail well BOTH empty and loaded. This is my 20' tilt...

I replaced all our windows (about 18) with Pella Wood. It has been about 25 years. I had only one rot or cause problems. I replaced it with another Pella. It rotted because there was a window air conditioner and moisture got in where the windows overlapped.

OK, now I will guess. 49ers and Chiefs. And that is a Suprise to me.

Might be careful about the battery discharging. You did mention it has been very cold. A discharged lead-acid battery will freeze. Then it will be a bad battery.

Finally, a warm day. 50 and rain has stopped - Sun is out - Snow had melted. Car battery is dead, charging it today. Good Morning

I had my landline 32 years. Then tries VOI (voice over internet). Then realized the calls were nothing but spam, never anyone I knew. Everyone called me on the cell phone. Then dropped it - the landline, that is. My cell phone number is also a landline number. Actually, from a different...

I saw an article that there was a driver shortage in the US. And that in 10 years the shortage may increase to about 160,000. I guess a lot are quitting or retiring. I guess that explains why I only get mail 2 times a week and trash pickup one time every three weeks. Maybe they are the same...

Wonder where you have to go for Maintenace support?

As you see, there are a lot of anti-gel additive. I use Stanadyne - in every gallon.

Battery and Drive Unit Limited Warranty Macindude - You asked. Find me a single EV that has a battery that's only expected to last 8 years, and I'll tell ya. ;) The idea of a required replacement is largely untrue. I guess this is what you were asking for...

I am not clear about how the cost of EV devices should be calculated. There are too many unanswered questions about ev cars, trucks and tractors. For example. If you purchase an ev vehicle (or tractor) which has a battery expected to last 8 years, what is it's resale value after 7 or 8 years...

There are a lot of reasons to pay school tuition. ONE of them is to qualify for a job with a higher income. I am a retired teacher and that is the only way i got raises. And that has nothing to do with who is smarter. The purpose of the student loan was to permit students to get education...

Ice and slick roads here to day. Temp is 30, which is warm today. Good Morning.

If that is VP, it is the only fuel can I use - Have 3. Bought them for $35, but now I think they are about $50.

I asked my Kubota dealer. He gave 3 empty cans and said fill them with your oil and bring them back. I will take care of the used oil.

I have a 6' box blade. I used some 2" black iron flat steel to make a grid over the outer parts of the blade so that I could put 4x8x16 solid blocks on each side on top) of it. It can add up to 200 pds of needed. Two hundred pounds is a little heavy so I usually add about 100. The box blade...

I would not run it UNLESS you find the oil spec. meets your required oil. I assume you are referring to engine oil. If you don't know or find that it does not meet your tractor's requirements, then change it and the filter before running it more. Remember, the cylinder pressures inside a...

Woke up to a nice COOL morning here - 67 and sunny. Glad to keep the air off for a while and rained a couple inches yesterday. Don't need to water the flowers for a couple days. Really enjoy swinging on the deck with a cool breeze. Good Morning.

I saw a video presented by Ford (about 2 years ago, I think) of an interview with some Ford engineers. The issue of mpg came up. The engineers all agreed that mileage could improve into that range, but the cost to the customer would drastically increase and would have a negative impact on...

The mother will forever wear the scars of that accident. I also pray her recovery - both of them.

My tractor is 2017. I insured when financing with Kubota, now pay yearly for KTAC insurance.

I do know that I was warned by my Kabota manual AND the dealer when I bought my tractor. I was clearly told to not use biodiesel.

same problem on a computer. Glad it is being looked into.

I asked my Kubota dealer what came in the tractor when they delivered. I was told gear oil. It is also much cheaper than udt2.

I stayed with KTAC (Kubota Insurance). This is the second year with it. Both years cost $451 a year. My L4701 is now 6 years old.

The instructions should help you with this. Remember, the purpose of the weight distribution is to insure the correct amount of weight is on both front and rear axle of the vehicle so that the steering will not be affected by too much weight on the rear axle. When you set it up, the...

Nice Job - looks good to me - Miller Time

I agree with most others. 6' Land pride has the BB1272. I have a L4701 and I sometimes add a couple blocks to the weight. it weighs 400 pounds. EA makes one that is really nice and has more weight than the on I have. Your L3901 should do fine with 6'.

I have one of those. Count my blessings every day for that. Oh...I see the tractor in the distance...I she leaving???? Turn around - come back -- That is a expensive mower!! Ha, made me smile.

Your new neighbor (with the new tractor) may also need a longer top link because of the Pat's Quick hitch.

VERY VERY NICE - I like most of your projects. Just one suggestion, and I don't know if that will be of value for you. I have to watering controllers. I changed both of them to Rachio 3 controllers. Mainly because one is at the house and one is at the lake. They have been excellent...

Correct - thank you. I knew it was alcohol and water. I hated chemistry class and I guess it shows.

Ha! Hard to see the bucket edges when looking forward. Almost impossible to see the bucket when backing looking backwards. I took out a post on the carport backing one time. I watch and see much better now. How we learn. Ha!

Riddled with problems, issues, ending loss for both parties and anger! Also consider this - $1750 x 6 = $10500 rent. Probably another $3000 maintenance (1000 Hrs). Total cost might be $13,500 rent loss. Much better to simply buy a new tractor, use it, and 6 mo to a year sell it. You would not...

Duffer - -made a good suggestion. But if there is NO voltage (DC - both on and off ignition), then change the meter setting to ohms and repeat Ignition off. If there is no resistance, then it is probably a ground cable. Looks like a large Black cable. Many vehicles have several ground cables...

I am wondering if that is their "tractor set up" fee for assembly and prep. There is a variety of ways to set up tires and rims based on your specific use of the tractor. I have methanal in my rear tires. To add more weight, I asked for a quote from a Rim Guard dealer (closest one is about 200...

Seems like here most all of the JD dealers are owned together and have the same name. In 2017, we had saved 20K looked to find a used 50hp tractor. I saw an ad for a New Holland used tractor that was about 15 years old for 15K. It was at the JD dealer in neighboring state. We pulled up and...

WOW! The snow does actually melt there. These are the first pictures from you that I have seen that it didn't look like the North Pole! Ha And the skinned tree - looks like that Wondering Pole saw got it. And the plant could be a Snowy GrayDog bush. Glad I could help. Best Wishes. ..Love the...

Welcome to TBN. Glad you are here. From what you are saying, I don't think I would go much below 50 HP. Unfortunately, I don't think 25K will get you there. Best Wishes.

Welcome to TBN. Glad you are here.

I didn't know that. I will look into that. The ones we got were "Endless summer" ... We have one in the back that blooms on the "old stems." Wonder if there is a way to take a cutting from that and plant it? Interesting. We bought a few hostas this year, but we transplanted several of the...

I have 6 years on my Kubota battery. Went in to price a new one. The parts guy says many last 10 years. So, I am still using the old one. During the last year, I do keep it on a maintainer. Just in case.

Good Morning.. 58 here headed to 68 - very nice day. My wife wanted to redo the front flower garden this year. So we bought some rose bushes, 5 hydrangea plants, many hostas. We waited to put them out. put them out about 10 days ago. Then the low temp Sat and Sunday went to 30. We brought...

Yes, you are correct. LastPass has been hacked. That is why all my access also requires a Yubico Key to open Last Pass. But there are also other password managers. I am not sure what has not been hacked. I guess a folder in the safe.

I guess nothing is perfect or a sure solution. I use a password manager - LastPass. It lets me store all passwords and secure notes. All my family needs to do is open that account and all notes and logins with URLs are there. The passwords are automatically updated anytime I update or change...

If you need a trailer and are committed to getting one, you might want to make that choice first THEN learn how to drive it. For example, a gooseneck is an entirely different matter than a bumper pull. A 20' bumper pull is much different than a 8' canoe trailer - MUCH easier to back up the 20'...

Now that looks like a sweet part of the family waiting for lunch. What a looker!

Welcome to TBN. Glad you are here.

That is amazing. Makes me want to estimate the weight of that big chunk of snow on top. Wonder what the recommended "load rating per sq ft." is recommended there. It would make me nervous about it also. Nice pictures. Makes me think of Ski Idaho.

Whichever you choose, be sure it is from a dealer that you feel you can trust to help you if needed.

I can't think of any reason or gain in using the wrong oil in any engine. Only trouble. As a note, Menards here had six gallons of 15W45 T6.

That would be a fantastic outcome. Good find and I bet you are feeling better about the whole situation. Good.

Have fun with it -- Be careful until used to it. And then also. Ha

Is it HST - Hydrastat? or Mecanical 4 wheel?

I was confused at the "Powder Coat" defect. Wonder what the dealer mechanic procedure is to fix that??? Wonder where he got "Powder Coat" specs?? I am sorry you had all the trouble. Seems like sometime if the dealer is worthwhile, then likewise is the tractor. If the dealer is not worthy of...

I would permit the buyer to look at and drive and inspect the tractor all he wants. BUT only at an independent location - independent of where the tractor is stored. I would haul it there for inspection. Then if he chose to buy it, I would deliver it to him by meeting him at HIS bank for...

My Kubota manual also has a description about which type of implement to connect to which hold. Yours probably does also.

Congrats on the tractor. Enjoy TBN.

Those VIP cans are great. I put a pvc ball valve in the tube of mine so I could simply shut it off when filled. I have 2 of them, been using them for 6 years.

Welcome to TBN - Glad you are here. To post a picture - go to the bottom of any TBN page where you wrote your post. Write a post, then click on the icon line at the top of post area on the picture icon, just to the right of the Smiley Face (round one). That will bring up a window. Click on...

Hello! Welcome to TBN

I think anyone who has watched the Chiefs all this year certianly understands that you must end the game well. The Chiefs coaching staff has shown they can win the last minute of play many times. Even with the AFC Championship against the Bengals. On another note, all this year the Eagles have...

I am with REPLACE it. Even 12.7 is not really very good for a good battery that is fully charged. Should read more like 13.2 or maybe more. If the battery was reading in the 11 volt range, I would consider it not fully chargeable. I am also guessing that there is one or more problem cells.

I'm in - It is far too flexible. One time I was looking for an I beam to move a concrete septic tank, weight was about 10K. Went to the steel yare and looked at a 20' 6" I beam. When they picked it up, it flexed like crazy. i had to use 12"19lb to get the strength. Rail would be a nightmare...

I used to think Jenn air and Maytag were excellent products. Then several years ago, they bought out by Magic Chef and built in the same factory. They don't seem as good anymore. Not sure Jen Air is still made. Back then, you could buy a $400 appliance and get a part for it for $20. Seems...

Such a nice shop. But we like tools. That is my problem, if I don't have a place to hang it, drawer it, or shelve it, I may never find it again. To make it worse, I have a place at the lake and tools there. If I can't find it, then it MUST be at the lake. One time I needed a palm sander. I...

Ha - We sometimes learn the hard way. I have always had Brittany dogs. In past years, I have lost a brand new $500 tablet (chewed on it), a $300 I iPod, My Favorite hat (2 times), a $300 Sage fly rod, All before I figured better to get them their own toys than have them play with my toys...

It looks like those pumps (most) on Amazon could be used to remove the Hydraulic oil then (after cleaning) be use to transfer diesel.

Assuming that the L4060 is about the same 400 hr as my L4701, engine oil changes also. Only one suggestion about the hydraulic oil. What to do with the old oil. I asked my dealer about that - he told me to just bring the old oil to the shop and they would take care of that. He also gave me...

Welcome to the next Nice day. 60 mid Missouri and sunny. THAT IS A GREAT LOOKING SHOP. Nice bench. Many years ago I was a Industrial Tech. teache (shop) in Mo. When the school district opted to end the shop program in the elementary school, they sold all the work benches at an auction. I...

If you choose to delay Pt B. enrollment, your employer insurance co should issue you a letter informing you that the insurance is "Creditable.Coverage" for Medicare purposes. I am sure it will be, but when you go to enroll into Pt b at a later age, you will be asked to provide that information...

Kinda feel like a good battery would recover enough to operate locks if she could relax and wait for 15 minutes. Maybe not. I am glad she could call for help.

Don't know. If doing road work scraping and spreading gravel, probably yes. Working with cutting dirt to level a field, maybe. I have a 6' with my Kubota L4701 (47 hp) and I have never experienced any lugging or taxing the engine using the box blade. So maybe so. I would spend a few minutes...

I started with an Advantage plan at 65, but before the end of that year I found an exception for an SEP and changed to an F plan. That was before the N plan was offered. That advantage plan did well for me, but I had 5 stents put in at the end of the year in 2009 and came concerned that I...

They are eating bugs of some sort. Another one will just take it's place if you do shoot it. It would be better to shoot a pecker wood than a wood pecker.

Good, you are coming along well. Good review of choices. I will add a few comments and notes. 1. You become eligible for Medicare on the first day of the month of your birthday---Unless your birthday is on the first day of the month. 2. When you are in the IEP, you qualify for ALL medicare...

Great - Sounds nice!

Just a short note. The Medicare IEP - initial enrollment period begins three months before the 1st day of the 65th birthday month, includes the month of the 65 birthday, and ends three months after the month of the 65th birthday. A total of 7 months. Unless the 65 birthday is on the 1st day...

No need to be sorry about my insurance. I just wish your father had the same insurance as I. I have Original Medicare and a F Medigap. I pay nothing but the Medigap monthly premium. It pays EVERYTHING else. I am glad that that the VA has worked well for him. The VA has an excellent drug...

About those calls. It is against Medicare licensing policies for an agent to contact you via phone or in person UNLESS you have contacted them first. They MAY loose their license if documented and sent to Medicare. If you go to a store - grocery or the like, and there is a Medicare...

Well, this is about an hour-long topic. I will attempt to shorten it with a few suggestions. 1. Medicare is separated into 4 parts. You must choose where you want to get your insurance. Part C - the advantage plans -- OR -- Original Medicare -- OR -- Original Medicare with a Supplement...

Menards drops the 11% every year. They change over from the 11% to holiday sales. That period is Christmas, New Years, President's Day, Valentine's Day, Easter. I think the 11% comes back in March.

Keweenaw - nothing like a happy dog. That is a very nice looking dog.

I ran Kubota engine oil and used it on the first "early" change. After that, I have been using Rotella T6. I wanted to use full synthetic. I had a discussion with my Kubota dealer before I made the change. His final statement was, You can't find a better oil than T6. That said, I watch...

"Squawk" means the set the aircraft transponder to a certain code that shows on the controller screen. Examples, 1200 for VFR operating aircraft Visual Flight Rules), 7500 for operation under unlawful interference - such as high jacking, or any code for tracking issued by the Air Route Control...

Looks nice. Have fun - be careful. Snow is always pretty to me, but cold isn't. Best Wishes.

Don't know if it is necessary. But if it is not a financial drain, then yes. If you decide no, then how do you manage a 120 m x 20 m garden? Or road work on a gravel driveway? The question is not how bad you need it or how much will it be used, but how will you manage those jobs without it...

Just wondering - do you keep the battery on a maintainer to make sure the voltage is at it's best, usually above 13. If the battery is weak, it will still turn the starter. but if the voltage is low or drops, the power wattage) REQUIRED to operate the starter is maintained by increasing the...

Glad you were able to get it done ok. It must have been a really bad joint to come apart. I mean ball come out of the joint. Good Job.

I think if you fix the roof and make sure everything is well insulated (maybe with Styrofoam sheet), a lamp may make a big difference. Was there a small leak at the connection? Can I assume, since you were dripping, that there were no frozen lines? I almost forgot - many years ago we put a...

It is unfortunate that your dealer is no longer there. That makes everything difficult. What you are experiencing is not solely with LS. For example, Here we have TYM (red)Tractors. But TYM makes other brands. Such as Rural King. But if you own a Rural King here, TYM will immediately tell...

Looks like your knife has some history. If you are used to always carrying a knife, it becomes part of dressing. Keys, Wallet with Drivers License, etc. and knife. Something seems wrong if it is not there.

I have one like the Makita pictured above. Only it has extendable handle and wheels like the picture below. Mine is Oil - less and Parts are available for it. I had the air pressure regulator start sticking. Easy replace and available at a reasonable cost. I am assuming you want portable...

Maintenance here is by the hour meter. In winter, I make sure the antifreeze is good, fuel tank filled to the top and treated with Staybil and Stanadyne. I keep the battery on the maintainer. The battery is now 6 years old. This is the first year I have used the maintainer - Genius NOCO...

Welcome to TBN. Always good to add your location to your profile. Tractor offerings, features, availablity, and cost can be totally different dependent on your location. Even the lubricants used are somewhat dependent on location and conditions. Best Wishes.

Welcome to the Forum. If it was dripping or slight stream (very small) at the faucet, then the water line shouldn't freeze. But if there is a leak or condensation outside the pipe or connection, that water will freeze on the outside. If there is a leak, fix it - If not a incandescence light...

Good Morning. Just thought I would check this thread out. 16K pages wow. And of course, I read every page. I know you don't believe that - I wouldn't. Weather seems like it is going to break an make it into the 50s today. A few warm day will feel really nice after -8 temperatures.

If you ever plan to use R4 s in the snow or ice, you may want read about the traction issues with R4. It they have traction problems in those conditions.

Those tapered surfaces are always meant to be "frozen." Rarely, you can apply pressure to the bolt end. But I don't advise that. you may risk other damage. The expansion forks that look like a chisel with a fork on the end may be the best way. They do not cost much and can save a lot of...

Or..........When will it be 40 degrees again?

The best toys are the ones they tear up. I am surprised that there is method to their madness. My dog removes the eyes and then the squeaker if it has one. Then begins the shaking and throwing it into the air. Then later, sleeps on it. She has a toy box that is full. About one time a day...

The wind sure makes a difference. It can be sharp. I made chili yesterday also - After working on the drive so we could get out if necessary. A few years ago I used to make chili with Williams Chili Kits. But now they have disappeared. I haven't made chili I really like since. Wonder if...

-7 here today and looks like it will not be above freezing for about 4 days. 3" snow.

Charlie and Shirley were interesting. I think she was responsible for keeping Charlie out of trouble with drinking. I was lucky to meet he and Ronnie Woods at a hotel they were staying at for a while. One time Charlie was being interviewed and was asked what he had not done and would like to...

Happy Dog

ahhh ha. You may find yourself sleeping "at the North Pole". In her new military sleeping bag. I never forget what my father in law told me. Want to know who really likes you, throw your wife and your dog in the trunk and come back in 2 hours to let them out.... Wonder which one is glad to...

Great and easy pictures. Of anything. However, understand the current federal law regarding flying and the use of a drone.

That is where I get my favorite .89 filter for my favorite car- tractor. Guaranteed for as long as your machine will run. Will never clog and prevent flow - uses new technology - oil soluble filter paper - no clogs. Probably the reason I started using Royal Purple filters and Racor filters.

When our daughter was young - 10 or so, we started letting her pick out a tree at the tree farm and cut it, then take it home. Prices over the years have changed so much that when my daughter got married, we started buying pre cut trees. With the prices here, even most pre-cut trees were...

Yep, we are ready. But then, we only get very small presents for our daughter (40 now). My wife and I quit buying gifts at Christmas many years ago. That is because if we need or want something we get it if we can afford it. If we can't afford it, we don't get what we always want, but what...

Welcome to TBN. Glad you have a nice tractor. I agree with Carl above - if under warranty, either take it to the dealer or at least talk to them about it. 50 hr is a good time to do that. They may want it back to be sure there are no more problems. They should know more about it than you...

For our daughter, we did all of the wedding. We ordered flowers from Ecuador. But that was 15 years ago. The flowers were shipped overnight to us. The flowers were in a dehydrated state. We followed the instructions (set overnight (12hrs I think) in 3 gal of water. All the roses were long...

Anytime your bank calls you about your account, it is best to ask the caller for his/her number and offer to call them back - you are busy now. THEN call the bank to verify if that is a bank employee or if there is a problem with your account. It sure is easy to get excited and want to...

Interesting mess. I hate flees. But killing the flea will not end it. It is the eggs that continue to hatch and lay more eggs. You must kill the flea and eggs. Many years ago, our dog had fleas and we gave her a flea bath. Then we all (including the dog) left town for about three weeks...

Tis true. I am sorry to seem them focus so much on pretty much only the commercial end. The Cheyenne is what I considered a "perfect" lifetime home smoker. At that time it cost $1200. The used on I got still looks like new. Best $800 I have spent in some time. Here is one that is a little...

One of the best places I have found to learn about new recipes and spices is on All Things BBQ website. atggq.com They make the best smokers - and offset smokers made of plate steel with lifetime guarantee. But they have stopped making the Cheyenne smoker which was their smallest offset. And...

When the dog had that incident look like "who did that"? We always said - the smeller is the feller.

Welcome to TBN.

That really sounds good. I have never used a pellet smoker, but burning wood, pellet or otherwise I think if best. Oak pellets seems a lot cheaper than oak or hickory wood. They make fantastic smokers. I also think their tube smoker is interesting for adding flavors. Makes me want to get a...

It is beginning to look like the best defense may win the day.

Seems to me if the Battery is ok.....and the feed at the fuse (both in and out are +12)....and you have +12 at the ignition switch both in and out when keyed on......And...wait...Pin 1 is 0 and Pin 3 is 0-2.5v?? HOW can the pump get 12v? The only input to the relay seems to be pins 1 &3. If...

Royal Oak has a charcoal plant about 10 miles from here in Branson MO. But I don't recall seeing pellets on the shelf anywhere. Maybe I just didn't look for them. We always smoked with wood and/or lump charcoal. Thanks, it is good to know the pellets will work in place of wood pellets.

I bought a Yoder offset smoker used from someone for my son in law. It was in Ft Smith Ark and had to drive about 150 miles to pick it up. At that time about (7 years ago), I paid $800 - list was $1300. It was used and looked like new. They use plate steel and last forever. It was a Cheyenne...

Welcome to TBN. Glad you are here. Congratulations on the tractor. Hope all the problems get fixed. As most will tell you here, it is ALMOST impossible to find a loader for a tractor to add on. If so, it may be pricy. Best if you can get your money out of it to purchase another one with...

Most all - only 2 do have a tractor.

Never heard of them either, but so...... Royal Oak Charcoal pellets Says they burn hotter than wood pellets. I would guess if All Things BBQ doesn't have the smoker you want, it will be very hard to find. Might even call them and see what they say. Maybe charcoal pellets will burn in a...

That is interesting and a very good point. If I had a repair shop OR dealership, I don't think I wouldn't want the accept the liability of working on self driving stuff.

That is a very nice trailer. EXCELLENT choice. It has: Toolbox Place for Spare Tire Hydraulic cylinder for locking and lowering. Recessed winch - interesting idea. Looks really good. Would like to know how that works out after a year or so. Stake pockets Rub rail Deck tiedowns - Not sure I...

Many issues that come up with smaller tractors (under 100 hp) are pretty straight forward and can be resolved by the owner. Those issues may be separated into those that require splitting the tractor and those that are find and replace parts (safety switches, starter, battery, etc). The larger...

I think you might look at the Racor 120A. Racor at Zorro It is available with 2, 10, and 20 micron filters. Flow rate I think is 15 gallon per hour. I read an article that suggested 10 micron filters. I would call Racor and discuss it with them. The 120A is supposed to be used on the...

Looks like you qualify for a day off....or two....or three.

Welcome to TBN. Glad you are here.

I think you had it in post $8. Might go to a cat scale, unload the tractor at the station, and weigh front and rear axles with loader and any implement off the ground. Then measure distance between front and rear axle. The line between center of axles is a line that represents a fulcrum. The...

I think in order to get a CGM thru Medicare (and other ins also) you must be on insulin and a certain number of times each day. It kinda reminded me of how difficult it can be to get an insulin pump if you need. But I don't have either device, so I am unsure of the requirements to qualify for...

Kind of hard to believe. Shocked and sad. Prayers for his family and friends. I haven't been here (TBN) very long, maybe a couple years. I always enjoyed his contribution to the Forum. Seems like he was posting just a day or two ago. RIP Roy, you will be missed by many. Thanks for all the...

As mentioned before - AgriSupply is a has several different sizes. Might measure the holes and see if any will work on that box. Also measure the length after the attachment to make you can raise enough when not used or lower enough when rippers are needed. These pictures show them raised in...

Little but Mighty. Check Land Pride if you have a dealer near. My 1272 Land Pride Box Blade has spring clips the has those held in place at the notches. I would guess they sell them for not too much. I also broke a tip on one of mine - replaced the tip for $17 from Kubota.

Reason 986 on why we should NOT loan tools and equipment that we want to keep. Loaning equipment is usually lead by the assumption that the borrower will be as careful, knowledgeable and capable as the person who owns the equipment or tool. Often a poor assumption. Getting burned once usually...

That chart should have also listed the vertical drop needed at the different ranges. Even 50 cal has a significant drop at those distances. But can still be lethal. Interesting.

Moderate everything. Orowheat used to make a High Fiber bread. But they also have others that are close. Use bread that has low carbs and higher fiber. Eat your sandwich on only one slice of bread. Also, look at Orowheat hamburger thins. 5.9 is good. Only you can tell us the affect any type...

Agree

I had forgotten about that. However, the bank I was using several years ago charged $25 to block the withdrawal. Thanks for the reminder.

If you are not looking for a higher amperage with starter capabilities - I also like the NOCO Genius. They charge different types of batteries (AGM - lead acid-lithum) and will charge with excellent battery maintainer ability to not overcharge or cook the battery. I use the dual to maintain the...

Auto renewal is not about payment method - check, ach, cash, credit card, but about signing up for a service and permitting the use of your bank account or credit card giving them the access to withdraw from your account endlessly. I have signed up some that were very easy to terminate the...

Glad to see hydraulic top link added to LandPride. But don't see it on the site yet. We will see what the looks like.

Good for her. Very nice picture - cane pole, nice pond, bobber and a nice bass. Busy and Happy mom.

No, you are not. But today, you are right. Even using security software required Auto Renewal at purchase. For and of those types of purchases (and most others) I look for a "cancel auto renewal" policy and instructions to do so. Then I ask How to cancel XXXX subscription. If many say it is...

What? That made me laugh. Wire welding without heat - somewhat common in the beginning. We could call it pulse or spark welding. Saving on cost of electricity. That is truly "wire welding.

Let me try to reasonably solve this problem ----Gov will help us with this. It is good that with food prices, supply chain problems, Oil problems and gas prices, border problems ... I am sure DST will addressed soon. And the outcome will not please anyone.

I vote scrap. I would never trust a repair. I thought it was a moose. But better to think it was a playboy bunny.

Thanks for the report.

To the OP - Interesting - it is easy to see that something a person knows nothing about and never thought of it, Then you find it is something that you must tend to along with so many other friends. How clear that none of us are in this alone. Looks like the day we found diabetes, we join a...

Congrulations - glad you found one you liked.

When I first found I was diabetic, I used a lot of test strips. I profiled all the foods I liked a lot. (tested before eating the food, tested again just after eating it, and tested again 2 hours later to see if the number came down or remained up). I used to love orange segments and my wife...

Looks like you need some ideas. Breakfast - You don't need to end what you like. But start by moderating it. Some cereal may not affect you much. Add different things on different days. Find a bread which has less carbs and more fiber (insoluable fiber). Put peanut butter and sugar free...

Peter, I find that amazing. And very interesting. Never knew that. Maybe that should be added to then "tell me something I don't know thread. It reminded me of many years ago we had heavy icing one winter and the power was off 9 days. A lot of trees could not support the weight - - - The...

Wow....Missed that. HAS I thought is said ideal solution is. Thank you. Then, in retrospect, if there, I would use it as is and see what happens. Best Wishes.

Probably be ok but depends on how hot it is in the summer there. Is asphalt easy to put down or would concrete go down easier. I have no idea how to asphalt an area.

one in a million Between bears and trees, I guess staying home is becoming an option. That is terrible.

We have had about 3.5 inches of much needed rain. The road looks a little rough - think I will get the box blade and put in a little improvement.

Over the years living with Type 2, I have learned certain facts: 1. Diabetes is not curable, but can be tolerable. 2. Every person with diabetes reacts different to certain foods and meds or treatments. 3. A dietition is good for education and learning about nutrition. 4. It is good to talk with...

Diabetes is an experience that affects everyone and changes over time differently from one person to the next. We learn what we can eat. Then do the best we can. Only at the end of the road can we say whether we were right or made a mistake. There is an excellent book titled "Dr. Berstein's...

I really like the Colorado and the Canyon. I looked at them first. But needed more tow capacity to pull my eq trailer with tractor. I guess the price for that is a truck that won't fit. I am amazed that the trucks (1500 and 150) just a few years ago were pretty much smaller than the Colorado.

Ha ha! That is the reason we have a tractor. So we can fix it after we screw it up the first...and second time. Best Wishes.

Welcome the TBN. Glad you are here.

I probably should know better and not say anything because I have not used a Land Pride land plane. I always used a box blade. That said, it seems to me that it might be better to use the loader bucket to distribute the load of material. Then the land plane should do a nice job of leveling the...

I like that. Seems somewhat fair. Do only the tire on the other side and leave. Make it his problem. Raising children is such a difficult job sometimes. I cannot count the number of times I had to tell her - You can learn this now from me, or you will learn it later - life will teach you the...

Looks like cold welds - not enough heat to pentatrate or flow. Very bad. I would guess many of these welds would crack with weigh applied in the first couple of years, if that long. THIS is the reason I always say when buying a new trailer, be sure the company uses certified welders. it...

If you don't have good pallet forks, might see if you could rent one for a day somewhere.

Always wanted a plasma cutter. Never got around to getting one. I always bought Miller welders. I guess that may be the reason I didn't want to pay for a cutter. I have used them, but not owned one.

Just a suggestion - that space could be filled easily. I used a product called pli-stix. I think Ace hardware carries it here. It is a somewhat hard plastic material that you heat with a propane torch and it melts into the space. It cools and seals the space - forms a hard plastic seal. I...

Good point. I also tow with max air pressure. I was always told that trailer tires do not fail from weight. But from speed and low pressure producing heat. My trailer is also a tilt bed (meaning it has two frames) and weighs 3200 pounds, so I don't get much bounce even at max pressure on the...

Typical with Amazon Prime delivery.

OK Welcome to TBN from "Show Me" Missouri.

Congratulations. The Canyon is a nice looking truck.

I guess it is true - "You can't take it with you." Tradosaurus has the answer.

I am guessing there is no grease in the joints. I would want to use diesel that wouldn't burn. They must have a GREAT AC unit in the cab. Talk about the "Hot Seat".

Just a short note. Don't knopw where you are located, but here in Missouri, we also have the "Right of survivorship". But vehicles - it can only apply to one vehicle. If you are claiming to change the title from your spouse, the state permits only one vehicle change. I was surprised to...

Some time has passed. I hope things are clearing up somewhat for you getting things in order. I will never understand how they can split a title on a property. When my mother passed away, she had 1/2 title on property in TX. I was lucky, I sold the 1/2 to the other owner. I can...

Nice looking trailer. I do like that it is rated 14K and 1400 pounds lighter than my steel trailer. ...Now that statement carries a lot of weight....OH BOY, That might be a PUN. Because it means you can load 1400 more on to it than I can load with my steel. But I personally would ask them...

Did the MC Pt Permium lower by $5? That would be a pleasant surprise.

Doesn't mean much - wait until you see the Medicare Pt premium. It (most years) is increased more than the COLA. In 2009 it was $96.40 and pretty stable. Today, I think it is $170, and seems to increase each year. We will see soon in 2023. Of course, the Pt B is higher for higher incomes.

Can't find t6 15W40 anywhere around here. I haven't seen in on the shelf in a year. I have 3 gallons in stock for the next 400 hours. I like T6ii and will continue to use if possible. It is clean and has worked well for me.

My Ram 1500 2021 had this step on it when I bought it. Maybe they are standard eq now. I use that thing all the time.

I wanted the 10K but none were available so I went with 14K. I called Doolittle trailer mfg and asked about torsion axles. I was told that sometimes over time, torsion axles change (gain memory) and get weaker. I don't know. But I got slipper axles with self lub bearings because of what I was...

If you use bags, have a lot of help and rent a very large mixer (or two). Using 80# bags, looks like about 160 bags to mix for 3.5 yards. And watch your set time.

The best handle I use getting on the tractor is the steering wheel.

Yep. She will feel better that you have the same problems as she does. Start with "Guess where I found my wallet, cell phone and glasses case." Then smile and fix or get dinner out for both of you. She will like that also. I do this kind of thing enough times. I just smile and say "I can't...
