    Flatproofing loader tires?

    TyrFil™ Flatproofing – Carlisle TyrFil™ Anyone ever use this stuff? How do you replace the tires when it is time? I can see some pro's and con's. My biggest con, is it adds weight. I bought a compact wheel loader and my requirement was 11-11.5k operating weight, to keep it legal when I haul it...

    Bobcat Loader upgrade.

    My oem 5/8 yd bucket was too small for the light weight material I generally deal with. So, I bought a Kubota 1 yd bucket. Sure do like it.

    JD 4320 loader upgrade

    Switched out my JD quick attach to skid steer. That way, I can use all attachments for either loader or tractor. Also, didn't like the small flimsy oem bucket, so I bought a CNH Dirt & Foundry bucket, 5/8 yd.

    Gooseneck dump spare tire mount

    I can't lift my 120# spare up and down off my gooseneck dump, so I built a curb high, mount. I think it is going to be a life saver.

    JD 4320 spindle failure

    Lost the top spindle bearing on the right side knuckle drive. Not happy with JD parts on this. Super expensive and main axle drive gear not available. Not available from Spicer either. After two days of research, I did find a matched set, used. So, with JD parts and about 4 other vendors, I...

    Hitch failure on a Diamond C FMAX 212

    Hitch failure on a Diamond C FMAX 212, GVW 25.900k I think. I think the hitch is rated 30k, based on their web site. You can see it has been broken for a long time with the wear marks. Crazy it broke in the first place.

    New tires and long arm tarp kit for my dump.

    Had a heavy wet load of mule manure on Sunday and blew one out. oem is 215/75x17.5, 8k axles, so I went with 235/75x17.5 Sailun S637, 16ply, 75 mph all position. It is hard to unroll the tarp with a tall load, even with 2 people, so I got a long arm kit to do that for me. Buyers Products 3016666...

    Found a '97, JD 970 4x4

    I have had my eye open for a 970/1070 4x4. I have a '94 970 4x2 that is an awesome tractor but won't pull the hat off your head. I picked it up at an auction. Kinda scary because all the items for sale were all non runners. Been parked for years. It is going to be a keeper. After several days of...

    Pump upgrade for dump trailer

    I posted this on another forum so I though I would share it here. As all you owner operators of dump trailers are aware, the lift is super slow. For me, it is aggravatingly slow. For a home owner with once in awhile use, it is fine, in a commercial setting, not. (1) Calling all dump trailer...

    JD 4320/400cx mount repair.

    I have an '09 John Deere 4320 with the 400cx loader. It has 3k hours on it. I had trouble with the right hand mount, uncoupling with heavy use. After looking at the wear of the mount and mast I decided to replace the mount thinking it had the most wear v/s the mast, plus it was cheaper:) It...

    Nova BX72R 540/1000 PTO chipper review

    This is a 7" direct drive, double hydraulic powered in-feed roller unit. After 3 fails of other chippers I think I have a keeper. It can out chip this older guy:D I was a little concerned that at 540 pto rpm my JD would lack performance and I would need to use my Case/IH with 1000 rpm pto. Not...

    Hay Buster 1000 gets it done.

    Ground up 40 yards of a special blend of compost/manure this morning. 30% compost (aged ground pine needles/wood pieces) 30% horse, 20% alpaca/grass hay mix and 20% cow. Looks good and should be a fine mixture for soil amendment. Compost that I used, not the pup:) and finished material.

    Box Scraper  Frontier BB2184/RB2284

    Buying a used Frontier BB2184 box blade and a RB2284 rear blade. I did my search in Texas so they can be picked up with my new PJ dump trailer. I got lucky and found them both, with very little extra mileage. They are both 7' so an easy fit in a 16' dump. Now I just have to learn how to use...

    New PJ, DE model, dump on order.

    This is a new model for PJ and comes standard with a 7'x16'x3' 7 gauge bed, 20k GVW. Probably more trailer than a home owner would need, however, I haul commercial so bigger is better. My current trailer is a Lamar 7'x16'x3' 7 gauge floor, 16k GVW. I will keep it as my secondary unit and sold my...
