That's why I don't have one!

You need a ventrac. It's honestly right up anyone on this forums alley, just need a reason to own one. Get the double wheels and off you go! New ones can be remote controlled down the steep stuff even, they are really impressive machines. https://www.ventrac.com/

If you turn around slowly, and learn your machine, you can remove about 98% of any tearing on turns with a zero turn. On really wet days, well you can only do so much on hills I've found. But you are just mowing your own lawn, so there never should be a wet day mow. Just get a regular mower...

I have found with the landplane, forwards for ripping/crowning and reverse for smoothing anything out. @TugHillDog I have that same issue with the york rake, but once I get a good set in the spring with the land plan, I can mainly just york rake after small storms and things.

edit: I confused York and Harley this morning. I do not have a harley rake. I consider those more for fresh dirt type scenarios and not established areas or areas with gravel. I have both as well, started with a york rake but got the land plane two years ago. I find it helps a ton for...

I have found when digging into heavy dirt, stone or really anything solid....my tractor can't even get in there and over fill the bucket one bit. Sand is in that same group to me, especially if not covered and dry. How does your tractor handle full scoops right now with the original bucket...

I don't know what you are talking about. I loaded logs into a trailer all week at 1200 rpm and they were frequently heavy enough to almost tip my tractor over. Yeah you need a little more juice, but you don't always need to be wide open. Maybe if you are doing heavy ground engagement work...

I have a HST, but I've been using a M7040 for a few weeks with shuttle shift. I will never buy a shuttle shift after that. It's a great tractor, but the control is just not there for me. Maybe after a few years I'd not even notice, but the HST is such an advantage imo. I work in a lot of...

This is really what needs to happen. Hopefully thats implemented soon, then in 20 years it will trickle down and benefit us as the average car is 12 years old :D I think the real high end cars are doing this or something like it now. The look at the white line doesn't work on me. I'm...

So I am just going to wrap this up, I know you folks who helped don't need this information, but maybe someone in the future. I ended up taking the cylinder off the tractor, and a buddy says he can get the key out no problem from there. The locksmiths I spoke to, also wanted it off to take it...

Well, locksmith failed, he got around the key but it wouldn't come all the way out. I have another key at a localish dealer I am going to pick up, the amazon ones had mixed reviews for my machine here. Right now I think I will try to unscrew the cylinder from the thing and get it out from the...

I think I am going to call a locksmith, with my luck I'll glue the key in there as well. Good idea. It is an open station, I found some keys online and I've got them on order, I might see if the locksmith can make one too, or if its too far gone. Thanks!

Thank you for this information. Now I just need to get the key out. Strong magnet? I'll do some google as well. Thanks again. Edit: looks like their are kits for getting keys out, I'll order one with the extra keys and give it a go. Thanks folks.

Hey Guys, I have a generous neighbor who let me borrow his 2008 m7040 and wood chipper (he gets the logs). As I was starting her up this morning, the key snapped off. I can get it running, and turn it off and on etc... But that's not how I'd like to return it. Was it was my fault or just a...

I just went to their website, looks like the 2638's have the highest discount of 3500, for the 2600 series, and I wonder if they are trying to clear them out. I build the one I have, I paid 30k 5 years ago, its almost 50k now. :oops:

My dealer said parts are easier to find now and the last couple years they have really gotten their stuff together. I have found this true when ordering parts and getting them within a week. Your model is older than mine and that might effect it, but I think they are getting alot better with...

Timely thread, I was asking myself the same question, but was worried about back dragging. I was surprised to see how much a bar add on cost. Then I looked at a new bucket price (n) Is EA back to normal? I feel like for a while they were on the edge of scamming folks.

I actually got one of those fancy hitches, maybe 10 years ago. I was driving up from NC to MA multiple times moving house and pulling a bigger trailer than I had ever pulled before (nothing big, I just hadn't had any trailering experience, maybe a 21 footer). I was more worried than I should...

Problem: When turning the key to get the glow plugs going, your check engine light will come on, but not consistently, and tractor still starts with some wiggling of things. This signifies an issue with your stop light switch assembly. It needs to register the brake being pushed down, to get...

Found the place this stop switch goes. It is IN the cab. I will post some photos and explainers later. Now that I know where it is, it looks to be a real clean swap. Just need a wrench and some dielectric grease.

I believe I have it, if you pm your email, I should be able to send it over google drive.

I'm not the guy who had the fire. It was just curious to me. If 15 of my 80 acres went up, I'd notice. hell if someones burning two miles down the road I notice. Just wondering how the kids didn't bring it up before the neighbor! Again, doesn't matter too much, but just looking for some...

My stuffs been out almost 6 years. I guess there might be a little extra surface rust on unpainted metals, but otherwise no issues. One day I'll have a nice shop to hide it in, but I'm not sweating it. You are sort of screwed this winter and spring anyways, just get some touch up paint and a...

What the hell is going on with the quotes on this page?!?! Anyways, OP, I'd talk to the man after you get your head wrapped around what was lost. He called YOU to tell you and probably work towards a solution. Might be a bit early to figure that out, but the line of communication is open and...

Picked up a part today to get my tractor to register I am using the brake pedal to get started. https://billstractor.net/stliswfor26m.html Does anyone know WHERE these diagrams are showing? There isn't a bigger picture and I am only halfway handy. I am guessing its towards the cab where the...

I just picked up a part from my dealer. The sensor on the break pedal that lets the engine turn over, has been going bad. Once we figured out what I should be replacing, they ordered it and it came in a week. We both were surprised! The service guy there said that in the last two years...

If my dealer doesn't have it, Bills Tractor usually does. I haven't had an issue in the last few years trying to get anything. If you need to have something in stock for commercial work, well, thats more finding a dealer with a big warehouse. No dealer around me has a huge supply of parts on hand.

Where might one look for that?

Replaced my broken hood latch. Took about 2 minutes and works like a charm. ***To replace, getting it off was a pain in the butt and I had to cut the latch from where it grabs the hood to hold it down. Probably should have done this a year or two ago. Will try to avoid head on crashes and...

I let mine idle down, and I let it warm up most the way before I work it. Even without turbos I try to baby it as much as I can on start up/shut down.

I ended up getting the second light switched over to a combo/spot too. I think the light output was significantly better for what I was looking for. A really wide and clear view will be great. Hopefully it doesn't wake the neighbors up when I have to go out at night. If I timed things...

I have a pusher, look at my avatar, blower on back and pusher on front. The pusher is significantly better than a front bucket for clearing your driveway. I do alot of pushing with my box and I love it. Rubber edge on it is great, get one with a steel edge on the top you can back-drag if you...

I'm starting to see the chinese stuff locally, and lots of yt videos. There are even dealers on CL selling them. I think the parts problem is going to work itself out, and if you are handy you can make things work.

Wow! Okay, so two different ones. The right side is the flood/spot combo and the left is the spot. I think the spot/flood does a better spread and distance. I will be swapping back the spot for another flood/spot. The side lighting with these is great, I am really happy with these, it even...

Got the lights on! One is a spot/flood and one is just a spot. I thought I got two spot/floods, so that was a bit of a hiccup. I think it will be fine with how I will use this, and there is side lighting on both, so they basically are all floods at the speed I am going. Will post up some...

Another hitch! I've had an issue getting my hood opened up since this summer. It's always been tough, but it just wasn't happening anymore. Looked at youtube, did all the tricks etc... nothing. Bashed the hell out of it and that didn't help either! Finally got fed up, and removed the front...

I'm not being a drama queen. I have respect for my neighbors and my community. You do not.

I'm up north, and we have too many rules, but even when i lived down south, there was a minimum of 10-15 feet setback for anything on the property lines. Shortest I've heard is 5 feet. I have my property posted, before we built anything had a lot of out of staters coming and hunting it and the...

I'm hoping at that age I'm doing that myself! Good for you! Even starting stretching in the morning, has stopped my back from hurting most the time. These little things can add up!

I had someone come to where we work and talk about this. They encouraged a handful of things. -Stretching regularly, and before any big activity -You may not be able to stop all age related decay, but you can fight back. Do light strength training and body weight exercises. -Keeping active...

OP, did you grow up in a city or suburb? You come off like a city guy. Why are you such a coward you can't knock on your neighbors door? That's all it is, you are too nervous, scared whatever, and are acting out like a little boy who was told he can't hit his little sister with your...

We had a bunch, all where you could see the competition. I think I remember learning way back that mattress companies realized they make more money when people know "thats where you go for x/y/z" and group up. It looks like they over expanded at some point and things are coming back down.

Makes me wonder what the snow ratings are on some of the trailer roofs out there! Thanks for the photos.

Dang, I thought we got some decent snow this year. I do not envy that! The heated cab is what makes me not mind being turned backwards most the day! Don't be scared to post some pics! Thanks! The basement is a water storage tank for our sprinkler system, the ground floor is half pump room...

Also, replaced the wiper blades. The front was okay, but the rear was torn off in places and totally done. Not helpful on windy days snow blowing that's for sure. I started a new thread asking about it, but they are a simple J hook, and the rear is 12 inches (I replaced with a 14) and the...

Okay folks, took some pictures from the snow clean up today. Winds of 60+ so there was very little snow blowing going on, most pushing piles back and up. I was able to blow the entire last storm though, so I had some room. Not much left though! I will say, I would never want a plow, I really...

Local Oriellys is closing apparently! Everything must go for weeks, nothing really left. Napa was next door and I got set up with some Trico edge ones. Maybe not the best ever, but pretty good and HAVE to be way better than what came on there. Thanks for everyones help and advice!

Okay great idea, we have one close by I will hit it up today once I finish cleaning up this snow! On hour 3, got 1-2 more. I love my tractor but having a loader or a push box that was 10-12 feet vs 7 and a 60inch blower would be nice!! 60mph winds make the blower useless today though.

That's an unreal price these days!

Thanks for the tips on the replacement rubber guys

That's what I was hoping to hear. I'll take it off tomorrow and make the rounds. Half our local stores just closed in the last month, I'll have to call around and make sure they are still open!

Hey All, My rear blade is cooked and not doing it's job. A lot of my use is with the snowblower, and it's been windy during the winters leaving my using it more than I would have thought. Anyways, when I looked the part up, bills had them at a very high price imo...

Looks in great shape considering 31000 miles! I'm sure a new engine is much more practical than a new model. How many years did that take? What are you doing with it!

I use a snow push, with a rubber edge. I clear a gravel parking lot, and 3 big driveways every time it has snowed the last 6 winters with a push on the front and blower on the back. When the ground is hard, I don't really get any stone, when its soft, or the first plow or two of the season I...

More and more big names I thought were switching some of their tractors over. I thought I saw an article about some kubota's getting rid of it. But, looking online now I cannot find anything.

Well folks, it had to happen at some point. At 410 hours I had my first piece of this tractor break, without me causing it! Luckily it was a $12 spring for my pedal return. Almost plowed right into a fence! I have one ordered from Bills as my local guy didn't have one in stock, and...

This just happened to me on my 2638 while plowing, spring broke on one side and popped off. Hoping my dealer has one in stock.

Am I reading that right, 30k hours? You have to post a picture of that machine. Anything that helped out a family that much should get a memorial!

I am at 400.9 on my meter and about 5.5 years of ownership. Mostly snow work, some mowing of small fields in the summer and raking the gravel driveways is the rest of it. Figure around 70-80 hours a year more or less.

I've noticed folks around me, switching to flail mowers over rotary cutters in the past few years. Old timers and younger. That, on top of the price issues or whatnot, might be a factor as well.

Did the 350 hour service today, basically mimicked the 50 hour service, but this time I was able to access the hydraulic screen filter. The screen filter had some real chunks of metal on it, but I got them all off and there was nothing else in there. The trans plug had more metal than maybe...

What a tragedy. I recently got a quick hitch and top link and I don't need to get out of the tractor anymore. I did it for convenance, but wow, looks like the extra Safety is a much better reason.

I'm back! 320 hours, and still running strong. About to do the 350 hour service in a few weeks as spring kicks up as I have to do the work outdoors. Going to order a filter kit off of bills tractors soon. Recent changes: Hydraulic top link- coming in the mail tomorrow Speeco Quick hitch Woods...

I am seeing pricing around that to 60, I need to talk more with a few places and see if any have a crane truck, that way they can place them for me. I don't have the ability to lift them myself, but I have two neighbors who can, and would be willing. Having the truck just do it while its...

Thanks! I appreciate that information, very helpful. I am up north, an frost and soil movement in the seasonal changes require it I believe if I want it to last. I am going to use bin blocks so that I can smash into it a bit and never worry. I also think the simpler process should save some...

Where I am, once you go down a foot or two its all gravel. My thought is to scrap the topsoil off, put down some crushed stone, compact, and pour on top of that. I don't think there are many huge boulders/rocks in the area, but there certainly are some.

Hey All, I am going to be opening up an area for some material and equipment storage and I had a question. In part of the area I am thinking of pouring a slab, so that when I scoop up the mulch/topsoil/stone/etc.. its nice and clean and I don't get any dirt in it. I know that one option is...

I have the service manual that's 252 pages long, not sure what you have, but I'd be happy to share. I just went over 310 hours today on mine doing some york raking. I use it mainly for snow and moving heavier things. No real issues and very happy with it. Good luck!

I did this to about 3-4 acres. I am currently grinding down the stumps after getting sick of weed whacking around them for the last few years. Brush hog the first year or two to figure out if any rocks or stumps are hiding. Then mow it with your regular mower at a raised height. You will...

Looks like mine just doesn't want to tell me they are moving to bobcat ha!

Can go back and forth, but the real way to solve this is to call your dealer and ask them what is going on, tell them you expect the tractor by the end of the week and that it be clean, newly serviced and in good working order. If they can't do that, then its time to negotiate further...

My local dealer sells Mahindra and Bobcat. They recently have only had a couple Mahindras on their lots, and by recently I mean the last two years, maybe just 18 months. When I bought, I made sure they planned on still carrying them for a while so I wouldn't get left in the cold with parts or...

I use stihl electric tools and maintain 10 acres of lawn with the blower and weed eater. I have 80 acres with lots of trails and falling trees that I use their chainsaw on and for clean up. That said, there are 100% limitations and they aren't the same as gas when I need some extra oomph...

A couple of photos.

I own a business, we made some changes and it effected how our clients events went and added some costs to them. We didn't fully anticipate these difficulties and it was OUR fault. So we paid all the extras needed to make things run how they should. It sucked, and it hurt our bottom line...

I'll post some photos later, but I received my Polar hd1500 this past week and put it to use this weekend. 1) Great instructions, it's simple to put together but I have been SO disappointed with instructions from places, I was impressed. 2) Solid bolts and hardware, again impressed. 3)Works...

that tandem video is worth watching if anyone is on the fence! Wow.

I looked into this exact idea. I need to learn to weld, it holds back a lot of good ideas I have. Got a neighbor who is half way decent and I think would teach me, got to get on him this summer about it. Good job!

that does the trick! nice work.

good tip, thank you I'll get it on order. I was thinking about it but wasn't sure, I can find room in one of my shipping containers, but realistically it's going to be outside next to my utility trailer.

I am about 20-30 minutes from Adams and am around the area frequently. Things have changed, but only so much.

Those look great, a step up from what I need, but they also might be a good solution down the road when I want to get into a bigger dump.

great, I actually made the order last night! But for the single axle. I think if I find it isn't doing what I need from it, I would try the TA kit, but from a few reviews it sounds like it isn't really as great as I want it to be. I think it needs an Independent Suspension to do it how my...

I looked more at that double axle, sounds more trouble than it's worth, I think I might bite the bullet on this puppy! That looks great!! If you are bored with it, you can drop it off here. HA! You and me both. I've talked lightly with a neighbor about going in on one together actually...

I'll give them a call, I appreciate the help!

the model with the two axels is out of stock, this is what I want though. I guess I could add the TA kit to it.

I like these, and found a similar version that goes a little heavier. https://www.acmetools.com/polar-trailer-hd-1500ta-utility-trailer-tandem-axle-8262/644376111191.html They make one even bigger one that handles 1800lbs, my tractor could handle that if I ever needed to bring a lot of...

I touch NY and VT basically if I stretch too hard in the morning. Lots of NH is within a reasonable drive to me. 1-3 hours.

you nailed it again, maybe a 4 wheeler. There is a way to get the tractor where I want, but its not easy for walking or having fun. I had some wood from the property for my first attempt. 3 Feet of wet snow wiped one side out after maybe 5 years, looking to just get something more uniform and...

yes, the span is about 40 feet is the issue. The folks I've talked with so far, the entire pole have been treated, but I'm waiting on a few people to get back to me in town about options they know of locally. I just got one quote back at 9k for shipping!!!! Makes that 1500 look like a steal.

I've got some ditches to cross, the ups and downs are too steep and I want to open up the property more.

I'm trying to work that angle too, and if I cant borrow one, I think I might have a guy who would do it a bit cheaper if worst came to worst. Would love to find some within an hour or so though.

I have a larger alumna, I like it alot, I'll check their site. I'll also see if I can find the northern tool variety. Some good tips, thank you!

I don't feel like I tricked anyone using a 0% deal. I did it because I was okay losing 1500 or whatever it is on a cash deal, to use 25k on a house remodel that brings income. For me, it was the smart thing to do. House has made me much more than the 1500 I "lost" on that tractor deal. edit...

Yes, this is the one business that can help me, but the "local" one I found was 3 hours away and a 1500 delivery fee. Ouch.

Hey All, I am looking for a small trailer to pull with my 4-wheeler, tractor and my MIL's Kubota UTV. Having trouble finding something that can handle some rougher terrain and not break the bank. General use is bringing supplies and tools across the river and in the woods. Want the trailer...

I called a handful of places and the most common answer was "we don't do that anymore". Either they sold the ones they had, or aren't able to sell. I did find some very nice ones for sale on Facebook, but they are in Cape Cod and the delivery is more than the poles!!! I have a few local folks...

I think as others said in the past, they are getting harder to sell to the public. I've called a few scrap yards looking for steel lengths and most won't talk to me because they can't sell to me. It's really a shame.

I'm hoping I can get a similar deal, they've been doing some work recently in the area.

Thanks, I just was searching and found a place by cape cod that fits the bill. I've also reached out to National Grid. Cape Cod could get pricey shipping them out here, so I will have to see what they charge.

Hello All, updating. I am in a similar area, but on the MA side. it's been almost 20 years, any new ideas on how to get some poles? I'm looking for 2-4 45 foot ones.

It says 1600 or 0% financing on one of the ones I was looking at yesterday. Obviously they did the math and figured its the same to them as a company, but as a buyer it isn't. I agree though, things haven't gotten any cheaper in a real sense. This might be why the sales are declining! Lots...

0% on Kubota and Bobcat, I'm sure others. That's a great indicator imo. If sales were like they were two years ago we'd be seeing more 3-5%. Offering 0% when bank rates are 4 and moving... I hope they are still going this summer, might finally grab a mini-ex or skid steer.

Had 3-4 beavers a year in our pond my whole life, Dad always took care of them growing up. Moved back home with my wife and dogs a while back and we walked the pond a few times a week. Didn't have a beaver for 5 years, first time ever. House was built and we moved out, beavers are back...

I don't know if this is still happening to you, it's happened to me quite frequently lately. Here's the only trick I know that works every time. Go park the tractor, have some food and let it cool off. Then 30 minutes or so go back out and wiggle it around a bit. I noticed it happens when I...

Just poking in after a long absence. Just did an oil change at 200 hours, I'm probably at 210. No issues in between, had a few kids since the last posting and the older one loves riding up and down the highway and all over the property with me. Going to need to get a bigger one with a buddy...

They drew a cock going into a butt, and then crashed the thing. They've already admitted it wasn't weather and was a human error. Let's be real, this was either hacked, or done 100% intentionally. Have ya'll not looked at any of the data...

Thank you!

I'm interested as well, I've seen them, but don't understand them.

I use the timeberline on the pico chains too. been happy with it once I got it down.

Built my house as a board and batten hardie. Looks just like all the other wood ones on the road.

I think some of these "budget brands" are seeing a rise in popularity. I own a mahindra and never would have even considered them 5 years ago. Kioti seems to be even better. I can't predict the future, but I think you wouldn't loose as much as you might be worrying about. If you keep it in...

I have a hardie house w/ board and batten siding. I painted it with Sherwin Williams top of the line stuff, forget the name of it now. GET A THINNER. If you aren't spraying, well probably even if you are. Thinning the paint just a little bit, sped my painting speed by 2x, maybe more. Just...

If there isn't other options, and there sure aren't for some things, then sure go buy china and cut out the scummy American middle man, cause they are trash anyways. But if theres an option to buy American it should be looked at HARD. Like F the pallettforks guys and go to everythingattachments.

my point in doing my little spots around the property is more to keep them away from the house. And to get further into it, they are really just burn piles.

Making trails on my property, and trying to buy more land to make more!!! I literally have a path "over the river and thru the woods to grandmas house" as we just moved the MIL in and had a baby girl, she can now grow up in a fairy tail! Why own land if you can't get out and enjoy it? My...

"mouse houses" I have them all over my property and burn them every spring. Basically you just stack some wood or brush in a way the mice will be secure from predators and most weather, and they move right in. This, with OUTDOOR bait boxes and you will never see a mouse again, I can almost...

Hey All, Just wanted to do a little update, and add a tid-bit of info that I think might help someone in the future. So I'm almost 150 hours right now, I'd say 80-100 of those are in the snow. Its done a great job powering my snow push and my blower these past two winters, I'm very happy...

Hey Guys, My stereo is out, and I want to make sure its not a fuse before I waste too much time. I took the lower steering plastic off (and all 5-6 bolts!:mad:) and did not find a fuse box like I was led to believe. A quick engine look didn't have one jump at me either. I cant imagine you...

ONCE YOU PUT REAL FORKS ON YOU WILL FIND A MILLION USES. Sorry for the caps but really want to get that across. You are now a commercial shipping point as well since you can unload a truck! You will not ever regret getting some real forks.

Tested out the rotary cutter today. Grass was already low, just mainly cleaning up from the guy who did it last year. But it laid some stripes! That surprised me a little.

Justtttt fits in the container straight on Windrows in the rocks as I was doing some first runs and figuring out which set up was best for the gauge wheels. I found it was good to scrape with them low, but for finishing to just barely have the forks touching to knock down the windrows...

Some guys are trying to make things drag out because they got a yapper in the house that won't give them any peace and quiet, Jeff is trying to help them out :laughing:

Did a little landscape rake work, first time using one on a tractor was the other day, needed to clean it up a bit. Taking a little figuring to get the right levels for different materials and what not, but getting there!

20 this time I dunno if site trackers are malware, would think you would get those too. some, not all

@5030 only 18! I'm at 21

Now I see videos auto playing? 403 on everything. If you are going to auto load videos and other crap like that I'm will have to check out other places. I have limited internet every month and I'm not wasting it on "whats hot" tractor videos you are forcing. I'm not sure about other...

37 tons of river rock moved. Before after

Hey All, I apologize if this thread is out there, but I didn't see it when I was searching. My tractor is 66 inches wide at the outside of the wheels. 38hp, 4wd, filled rears. I was thinking about a 72 inch LP rake, but am thinking I might want to get an 84 inch for when it is at a full...

Got my snow push dropped off this morning, should have 4 inches or so coming next week to give it a little trial run, pretty excited to have it all set up and ready now. It's 72 inches. Now a quick question about the hydraulic fill level for the HST. I looked at it this morning on a pretty...

Just got my snow push dropped off this morning! Fully equipped now. Hoping I get by no worries without chains but we will see.

Cleaned things up nice. We got about 18-20 inches and I had to leave it for a few days because I didn't have time to get everything with work. Was heavy today after some warmer weather, but the blower and tractor pushed it right out. Does take a while, but I like the results much better than...

Snow Blower Is ready So I spent today getting the snowblower on and ready. Was a little bit of a pain because it was too wide to fit the QH I had, and I wasted about 30 minutes trying to make it fit. Took the hitch off and got it loaded in two minutes. Next issue was the PTO shaft was too...

HST Filter and Front Axle Fluid Change So I got the front axle/final drive done today along with the hydraulic fluid. It was pretty straight forward so I will only include a few pictures of what I thought interesting/relevant. I used Kubota Super UDT2 for all fluids. Let's get this out of...

My SB1064 came in last week but I was off exploring the Grand Canyon (all fog the day we were there) and the Sedona area. Picked it up today. My snow push isn't coming in until the 5th I believe. I will get a little more loader work done in the next day and then get this guy hooked up once I...

In my manual, it has the final drives and the front axle sort of together. See attached photo So am I right to understand the final drive cases are the boxes right by the wheels people talk about making sure are filled up? But I also think they get the oil from and fill at the same point as...

Focal Speaker Instal Todays project was to upgrade the speakers. The ones in there weren't bad, but I wanted to see how an upgrade would do. Process was pretty straight forward, I cut the old connector that wouldn't line up with the new speakers and then connect the wire to the new connector...

Hey All, I have found some lighting threads but not one that addresses roof-mount 360 lighting, if so please send me a link. I have been thinking about replacing my work lights with led, but a lot of higher end pod lighting is overkill for snowblowing at 5mph. I ended up finding some of these...

Bridge 4's Mahindra 2638 HST CAB OIL CHANGE @ 17 Hours Hey All, So instead of doing a whole new thread like I did the block heater, I will just post about the oil change here. While there are plenty of older threads and changing oil is sort of basic, there isn't much about the 2638...

So I am creating this thread because I could not find anything even CLOSE to this when I looked. Best I found was a TYM installation that was not really that similar as far as where things were. Disclaimer: I did not find instructions that were for our tractors (or even too close) and I did...

In MA here, hate the leaf peepers!! Can't get around town in any sort of reasonable time. Attached is a shot from work yesterday as I lit the fire.

On Tuesday, I spread about 10 yards of compost, going to do another 15 or so on Monday. Have some events this weekend where I couldn't hit the whole property as much as I wanted too yet.

Hey All, I am looking at purchasing a Land Pride SB1064 in a few weeks, with hydraulic chute and deflector. I was just wondering if there were any known issues, or suggestions from people with a lot more experience. I'm at about 29.5 at the pto. It also doesn't offer a poly option on the...

I did 2.5 miles of trail with an excavator, but I made them at least 10-15 feet wide if not more in most places. It was great fun and I really learned alot. Need to clean it up and add some better drainage/culverts in some areas. Instead of buying a mini-ex, rent one. I rented one for a...

Came in this afternoon, this one is a little rougher than the first one I got, but it was cheaper so I guess that makes sense...this was $28** delivered, shorter was $3009. Both came from NJ/NY area. Will powerwash and paint this week/early next. Can get in and out of it on either side, but a...

So I have some walking trails through the woods that I recently cleared. Most of it is flat, with a few areas that could use some smoothing out. There are also a fair amount of shallow roots and very small stumps (2-3 inch) on the trail that I'd like to rip up so people don't trip. I wasn't...

Good day with the tractor today, spent a few hours loading my compost spreader and was pleased with how things went. I feel like it was a little less squeaky, low gear did the trick for getting the bucket filled and I continue to be impressed with the smoothness of the loader. Called the...

I wanted to make a thread that I could consolidate all my questions, any possible mods, and my reviews on implements I use etc...:thumbsup: I got a 2019 2638 w/Cab and HST dropped off yesterday, had 4 hours on it. I added 2 rear spools, and will add 3rd function later on. Got the quick hitch...

Hey All, I am very close to ordering a 40 foot, high clearance shipping container to store my tractor and some implements in. I currently own a 40ft, regular clearance, that I store my lawn mower, wheeler, compost spreader, snowblower and on and on. I just moved to a new location and newly...

Hey All, Apologize if there is a thread about this, please link if there is. I was wondering if there is a company that works well with Mahindra tractors. I am specifically looking for snow plows/blowers. Thanks!

Hey Everyone! First post here, so, hello and thanks for all the good information on the site. I am looking to get a smaller tractor for mostly snow removal and some loader use in the summer for a compost spreader. I got a quote from my closest dealer and wanted to see how it compares. I...
