Today I took the much loved M59 up to mud and pulled out a double cab full size bed 3500. No pics on that one but I have pics and movies of the horse trailer I pulled out and a pic about the skid steer I tipped up.
It's been years since I have been here so I'll get it if you don't care, sorry...
Well it's been a long time since I've been here, been doing a lot of this:

Today was doing the 800 hour service on my M59 and just like rScotty, well sort of like him, I shut the fuel off to change the filter and forgot to turn it on. Did all the other fluids and...
Hi folks,
Long time no talk, been working.
I was ditching our road (yeah the county should do it but they don't) and when I do that I put the flashers on and the front and rear work light so I'm less likely to get hit.
After about 2-3 hours of work the machine shut off. I had the console...
Hi all,
Haven't posted in a while but wanted to tell you all about my recent seat time.
Someone texted me out of the blue and said "I hear you do tractor work, want some?" I was a little taken aback because the only work I've done is for myself and my neighbors. The non-personal stuff has...
Hi all,
I've had a M59 pop out of gear on me twice. Once in high, once in medium. Both times going down a hill.
After the first time I'm very careful about being in gear, when I shift I check the lever and make sure it is in
place and I go forwards and backwards to see if it pops out.
I've got...

Hi, long time no talk, I've been out using my tractors :)
This is a repost from parts/repairs, I posted in the wrong place.
I put my grapple (WR Long, *love* that thing) on a couple of days ago, it worked fine for about 5 minutes and then went kaput. In fact the whole tractor hydraulic system...

It feels like the return part of the circuit is...
Hi all,
Me and my mechanic recently went through all 3 of my tractors (B21, M59, KX-161-3SS) and did fluids and filters.
Somehow we screwed up the M59. Here are the symptoms:
a) It has a position control valve and after the service the arms don't start going up until you are at 7-8, they...
I bought one of these from a local tree/clearing service company. My first (and if my wife has any say, last :) excavator. Love it except that I got it stuck in HR mode (which I think is controlled by the top button next to the throttle but the label is worn off so I'm not sure). I do know...
I am a new M59 owner and the previous owner got the 3 valves but did not get any rams. Does anyone know the right sizes to get to replace the top link and one of the links to the lifters?
Thanks!
Hi, M59 owner looking for something better than pallet forks to grab brush and logs. Brush is to move it to a chipper, logs is to move them and to hold them while cutting them up.
The M59 has about 4000 pounds of lift at the pivot so something that could use that lift would be nice.
I was...
I'm looking at upgrading to a B26 from a B21 and one of the reasons is the skid steer quick attach on the front. I'm hoping that someone makes a sweeper I can put on there.
I've searched around and the hydraulic ones all seem to want 10-30gpm and the whole hydraulic system on the B26 is around...
