This is a question for all you trailer experts. Why do you use a binder on all four corners? I don't care what a law might say, I want to know the actual reason behind it. I put my tractor on the trailer where it needs to be for balance. Then I hook the two front chains as tight as I can by...

So with the snow season about over many of you must have had some adventures that occurred during plowing that would make for interesting reading. I will go first. Just before New Years Day, we had already had about 90" of the white stuff. I live on an island with about 20 houses of which...

A topic that has been hashed over many times but maybe some different approached. First, this is on concrete and asphalt only, it does not apply to gravel. In my area, mid Michigan, we typically get 100" a year so I figured a rear blade alone would get me through as we maybe get more than 8"...

Today was the 50 hour engine and trans oil change. Two things to be aware of if you have not done yours yet, B2x20's. First, some sumo wannabe put the filters on with an impact wrench so get yourself a good filter wrench, a strap wrench was really tough to use but do able. Second, the engine...

I though I would share how I handled the trailer situation. The tractor is a Kubota B2620, with filled tires it weights about 2000 lbs, MMM is about 300 lbs and loader is another 600 lbs, total is 2900. The trailer is a 7k by 16' tandem that weights 1300 lbs. The sides I built are 5/4 x 6...

Finished the loader forks today. I tried to do it as low cost and light as possible. The local blacksmith shop supplied the 3" channel and welding labor for a total of $116.00. Each fork is 22 lbs, 42" long and the upright is 24". Both the blacksmith and I agree that they will probably hold...

When I took delivery of my new B2620 I told the dealer not to load the tires as I wanted to try it without first, besides, he uses chloride. Well, after spinning my tires several times in the normally golf course quality lawn, and turf tires will dig a trench fast, I decided it was time to...

I bought a new 2620 but it is orange. I had decided to buy a JD 2320 until I read about the new Kubota 2x20 series. I went to the local dealer, checked out the specs, looked it over and made the deal. I got the tractor, loader and 54" MMM for less than the cost of the JD2320. I drove it...

While I am just sitting here waiting for spring so that I can empty out my storage building which will allow me to take delivery of the new tractor I have picked out, I have seen several threads asking about wire size to run for added circuits. It appears that there is some confusion on just...
