After I disked the garden a few days ago I rinsed the polled off the tractor and then backed it into the carport to tighten a loose bolt on the disk. I did and pulled it back to the shed. There was some mud and water as I expected. I swept the dirt up and saw the "wet spot" . Later that night...

Hello: I moved to my current property ten years ago, which is all hills, and I have not used it in those ten years, so I though that I would thin the herd of tractor implements and clear some space in my shed. I have a Kioti AE20-48 Plug Aerator for sale. The price is $400+100 shipped 48. firm...

The last few times I have tried to use the dif lock it's not working, it will slightly go down but kind of springy but not go to the floor board. I can't tell if it's stuck engaged but I think it might be, j just started thinking this was the case recently and not paid it much attention, j need...

Hey I have been gone for awhile. A week turns to a month turns to 6 months pretty fast. Will try to check in a little more often. There appears to be coolant leaking from the small square plate on the back of the head.. I haven't looked at my Yanmar service manual yet to see if it mentions it...

I haven't even looked at the parts breakdown or opened it up. I heard this noise coming out of the garden after disking part of it under. I think it may be a bearing noise. Look at this video I made and posted to YouTube so I could link it here.

I went to change my fluid. It's not been 500 hours but that would take me forever to get that many hours on it. It's been quite a few years since I changed it. Full change maybe 12? I did partial changes I believe or either drain and refills when I did axle work I believe. But this thing works...

My battery is 4 years old. I keep a HF solar charger maintainer on it. I wanted to check the health of my battery. It's been parked since last weekend. Put meter on it 12.15v , ok that's low but I bought a cheap battery. So after I used the tractor for like 30 mins I get back to shed leave it...

I figure everyone likes pics and especially videos. I made a video as I was disking my food plots a few weeks ago. If it looks like it keeps cutting and jumping it's because it is. I had to stop it to make the turn so the video wouldn't be all ready as I used my two hands. Just some raw footage...

I have been useing my ym2000 a good bit this weekend. Today I had bushhogged a few hours and tdrove it down into the woods to cut a tree out of the road. When I got to the tree I brought it down to an idle and was going to leave it running. When I got to about 1000 Rpms or lower the light lit...

What do you think about re-useing a head gasket. If it wasn't blown but pulled to check cylinder health. I have a non running 186. As I spin the motor over by hand by fan it spins very easily like there is no compression. The previous owner pulled to head cause the motor was locked up. It was...

Well it's not a Yanmar but it is red..or was, or had a reddish undertone under the years of "patina". It's a FarmAll cub! I guess I need to move on over to the Farmall/ International forum and post a similar thread but I thought I'd let some of y'all who know me better know first. Nothing...

I got a project tractor today. It's a 186. Not running currently. Missing a few parts and unknown condition. The electrical system is there....but hanging to describe it! Tires hold air though!

Ok so the time has come to finially get around to this project. I bought it awhile back on sale. Anyway I am putting it into a closet basically across the hall from my main panel. The Heater requires three (3) double pole 40amp breakers. The decision I am trying to make here is do I install a...

I'm sure this has been discussed but this is my go around for it. So let me hear your suggestions, things to avoid, how you did yours. What trim did you use on sides, is it a mistake to not use trim on your sides. Metal directly over overlay, use perlins over felt, did you run two layers one...

Throw some ideas out there for me. My neighbor is giving me his old 12x16 shed. It's at least 35 years old. Frame looks and appears solid so pulling from the skids should be an option. My plan is to wait till it's dry and put a chain or rope between the side skids and pull with a tractor. If...

I was given a zero turn that needed some work. It's low hours. I did the needed repairs to get it back in service. Now it's just things like the hour meter doesn't work and the fuel float is sunk so the gauge doesn't work. But the question I have is the seat has pulled away from the metal seat...

I was disking today. And as i was passing too close to my feeder i slamed on brakes so the disk would not catch the leg of the feeder. I had just lifted the disk and put the throttle in so i was maybe going half to 3/4 speed i guess when i went to hit brakes. All was well i went on by slow...

Not sure if this has been posted here, but I have never run across it. This will allow both flashers to work at the same time like a slow moving vehicle should have on while on a road. The way there set up is like turn signals, only one side on at the time, I guess they use them as turn...

Just watched last week's season premiere episode of NatGeo's Life Below Zero. I have come red before about And Bastitch having a yanmar before. I think its a ym2010 with a Coldwater loader. But this episode as he was picking up the logs from his boat landing you could see the Hoye sticker on the...

I will try to link to it tomorrow but the other day I read an article about yanmar anouncing it will produce a turbo diesel outboard. I think it was a 50hp. It will use way less fuel than comparable outboards and have twice the life. It will be a 2 cyl and have twin crankshafts and 2 connecting...

Was looking for some cheap mud tires for my old wood and farm truck. Was looking at the new modern patterns over the classic mud tire. I loved these Milestar Pategonia tires and they actually were the best deal I could find on 33s. They have been out for about a year and you see them all over...

Looks like the private party add forum under the top sticky says it closed but to go to the classifieds at the top of the page, I can't find that? I have some parts off a bish hog I want to try and sell. Help me and someone looking for these older parts out.

I got this load of wood last week. I have put off unloading it till yestwrday. But I had to get it off to use the trailer for the weekend to haul the tractor. The top layers I sawed them off, but for time reasons and to make it easier to not cut my trailer I pulled the lower level off. I will...

I just picked up one of these for free. Spindles feel good, so does the gear box, which was tight and full of pure oil no water. Changed the oil out, greased the spindles and the wheels and have them free. I need to test it before I buy new blades as the ones on it were shot like 2 seasons...

I have read on here about the original Yanmar air filter being washable. Those who have washed it what did you use. Did you use diesel, gas, mild soap and water or just water? I was just curious of what you did and was it successfull. I have one that need to be cleaned out beyond blowing it out.

2004 Toyota Sequoia This started after I did the front brakes. I replaced them with top of the line quality ceramics. I cant remember now if they were Weaver, Raybestos or Advance auto Gold , I have used each in the last few years on vehicles. I had a local shop turn the rotors, I used brake...

I thought I posted a thread on this when I did the one side a few years back. I don't see it so I will start a totally new post. I know I posted about it, but maybe it was in another persons thread and not a post started by me? I just went back through all my started threads for like 7 years and...

I had my brakes torn down on one side of my tractor. I had a post about the brakes comeing out of ajustment. Ran out of adjustment, so I tore it down. The drum was covered in rust and brake crud. I took the wire wheel to it on the grinder to clean it up. I EmaileD Aaron and he said cause it was...

Ok so about a year ago some of you might remember me getting the brake cam unstuck. Well that was a success and I put it all back together and sometime in the first few uses something happened and I had no brake on that side. SO I took it all back apart this spring and checked it , all looked...

It was $19.99. I did not even see that on the site till i got there. I went there specifically to get the 10,000# straps for $7.50 but i figured that id buy a bucket of it since i might change it this next summer..maybe the next one after? I know we have talked about it here before and the temp...

I bought a new car hauler typer trailer in 2009. I noticed some rot a few weeks back on some of the boards. I was told they were treated and assumed that but then i started to question that as the boards only lasted 6 years. Then i called the maker of the trailer and they said they never made...

I am going to set my valves when I get a chance. I have referred to Hoyes page on how to do it and will follow the directions they list. But my question is should this be done on a cold or warm engine or does it mater? Link to Hoyes direction on setting valves.Easiest way to set the valves on...

has anyone else had this issue. According to Hoye on thier page on how to do brakes this is the common problem, with stuck petals or hanging brakes. Well i have this problem on my left side of the tractor. I have it all apart and am trying to get the shaft/cam out and i see that hoye says...

I have been looking at the upgrade frome Hoye for years. My fuses were wound solder and have cracked from vibration I guess? And sometimes make contact and others not. I ordered some fuses a few years back to put in place but they were longer???and bunched up in the gap. Being cheap I saw where...

I have a YM2000 and when i was at the farm this last weekend i noticed that my fuel line from the tank to the filter is weeping fuel. Not really leaking but looks like its sweating deisel fuel as the tractor looks like a few drops have hit it under neath. Also looks like the oring in my filter...

This was pointed out last year i beleive in a quick clip you saw a yanmar tractor sitting on the sled dogs guys property. Last week on the new season you see him useing it to erect his post and beam pole barn. Its a YM2020 with a coldwater loader. I should of taken a pic but it was the episode...

We have an 01 Highlander. We are looking at Expeditions to replace it. Looking in the 10 year old range. $10k or less. Were looking at the Tahoe I know they do a bit better on fuel but that third row seat sitting on the hump makes it u useable for adults And the fact that the seats tumble...

Here is the Bush hog Razorback rz60 that I picked up a week or so ago. Well used. And has the classic tears on the corner that this model suffer from while looking at google images of it. No idea what they did to tear the skids off. But that weakened the skirt to hit the blades. And one corner...

I was wondering what this john deere 4ft bush hog is worth? Any ideas. The gear box leaks a bit but runs fine.

Was he run off?

i was reading and about to post. i wrote my reply and it said something about permission? im on a phone so i thought the app messed up so i just got out of the reply and went into it an try to read the last page and again no permission. then went back to the rural living main page an it was...

I know this may have been posted here before, but not in the last few years i think. Its probably on the owning forum all the time i just dont go there and pluss its irrelevant to me someone that has a total different tractor how many hours they put on because its hard to relate another tractor...

I got one of these for free. Ran fine when i got it, then it rotted fuel lines from ethonol/sitting. I replace the lines and the carb is flodding, its spilling fuel out of carb and bogging down, only way to keep it running is switching from choke to half and back n forth as it idles up and...

After hearing others have done this I decided to do it my self. After about 2 years of thinking about it and forgetting until a long weekend on the tractor I finally did it. When I was at the small engine store to get fuel lines for rotted ones on a blower thanks to ethonol I asked if he had any...

I just got a smart phone. I took this pic today on the road and remembered I have the tbn app so I can post it. I actually took this pi to post it! It was short maybe 10 ft yet had tandem axles! What could u put on such a small trailer to need tandems? Maybe a wire spool?

Saw this last weekend while in Charleston. The pic is not great but I took it because their trailer hitch was rusted through at least on the back side on each side of the ball. Scary thing is that there was a receiver in and it looked like they might of still be TOWING with it!!

This has been on my mind lately. With various threads discussing it and me having the tractor for 3 years now and over 100 hours, im thinking about adjusting the valves. I have never adjusted valves on anything, watched a video on youtube about adjusting my 4wheelers but never did it. Is it...

If you follow here you have read about me filling my rear tires with Winshield washer fluid. Well i wanted to report back my results. If you mostly mow in an area you care about tracks i probly would not do it. My property was entirely watterlogged and there was not a place shy of the driveway...

Ok if i have been told o dont remember the answer, but what is the differences in all the clors of siicones? I know the red is a bit higer temp, but the colors all seem to have little variances of applications on the package? & read Cardoc describe the anerobic sealants before, but reeducation...

This is a little different that the normal topic that we have beated to death. Im not asking should i do it or what with, but how. I have decided on -20 winshield washer fluid for fill. I have a drill (cheap) pump i bought for this. The plan was to fill 5 gallon bucket with Fluid then just...

Inspired by Winston's Hydro oring replacement i decided to finially do mine. I have been thinking of doing it for over a year or more. When i bought the parts for my rear wheel seal, i bought the necessary orings for it as well. Since i had the tractor at the house i deceided to do it as well...

I have the tractor home. I am going to change the hydro fluid and fill my rear tires. But yesterday i notice that the back tire has fluid leaking out from the axle shaft out on the tire side. Now is the time to do it before i fill the rears and put new fluid in. I know a few of you have done...

For those of you following my Starter replacement thread, i thought i would start a new one to not jumble and confuse the original thread. So my question is do i need to measure the thread exposed on the radius arms after installing the new bushings, to ensure there the same, or will it not...

I never know if im suppose to post repair help in here, cause its cars/trucks therefore transportation or put in in the repairs forum? The repairs forum looks like tractor repairs, heck i dunno. This will be a shortlived one anyway. Problem 1990 ranger 2.3L. A few weeks back (its an extra...

I bought a cheap HF spray gun. I want to start painting things. eventually my old trucks. So here is my question. I know prep prep prep. I can get how to prep something for paint and how to sand it to create a "tooth" for it to stick to. But how do i go about painting. I am confused with the...

This is a repost that i put in Rural living cause i could not find this forum after looking for a place like this to post it! The new format looks updated and the reply box seems to have more options, but there are a few problems. On my pc here at work when you click a forum like "rural...

Ok it looks updated and the reply box seems to have more options, but there are a few problems. On my pc here at work when you click a forum like "rural living" the topics start a bit down the page, meaning you have to scroll through white till you get to the list of topics, then its way center...

I have a 1989 honda fourtrax 300 2x4 Problem is that it surges and stumbles as full speed or most anything abouve about half throttle. If you hold it it will surge then almost like its starving for gas causing it to stumble then catch and keep going only to stumble again. Its almost like your...

This mourning to all the forums?

My inlaws have about a 2005 kia, the suv, not the huge one but the next down, but not the small sportage either. Its got about 77k miles on it. She has had a problem with it cutting off when she pulls to a stop sign or light every now and then not constantly. Also said it wil hesitate...

I had posted a thread about rebuilding this carb in the rural living forum, before i realized there was an ATV forum. Anyway i put the kit in which i learned did not come with a float till i got it. So i put the kit in minus a few pieces i did nt feel like doing. New needle high and low jets...

I have torn the carb out of the Honda 4wheeler i just bought. It was coughing and spitting back and needed a rebuild. It was pretty gunked up. Anyway does anyone have any anvice or the process i need to go through, especially the choke adjustment, i took it out but not quite sure of the process...

I work for, well we will say an un named government agency. We recently took delivery of a John Deere Gator as well as a 12 ft trailer to go with it. They forgot a few things to spec on the trailer and well we got the cheapest construction i think you could get. At least they must have...

Was at lowes a week or so ago and noticed that they are now selling 3pt attachments. They have 5 ft items. I noticed boxblades, rakes, scraper blades and bushhog. I did not look close at them but i think they said Carter on them for the brand as i drove by. I saw a price on the BH it was $804 i...

My question is basically is it going to cause any ill effects to burn pine in my catalyst wood stove? As a forester i know about wood types the resin content etc of the various types of woods. The main reason we dont burn pine is the amout of crosote it puts out as well as it burns fast and...

I am wanting to know if what my title says has been done by anyone (the blue stuff, foam that is not drywall)? I did breif reasearch on the net and have heard both. Several with no nail pops or trouble, others say that you cant do it cause of a moisture barrier. But i see no difference than blue...

We really dont have a vehicle repair forum, so i will try here. 1990 ford ranger 2.3L My Ranger has some noise coming from the timing belt area. Looking under the cover it looks like the belt is loose and slapping around like a tensioner has backed off or something. I watched/helped when it...

Ok heres my question. I have just cut a few bamboo stakes for my garden, fresh cuts on green bamboo. It occurred to me about halfway through the 10 or so i cut that this stuff might sprout, so will it? As a forester i know this stuff is horrible and will grow anywhere, but will it sprout from a...

With the latest closed thread and the threats of so many leaving or have left i was just wondering who we have here as regulars. Even if you just pop in feel free to reply here, just curious of the regular traffic we may be getting here say every week. I really dont care what you put in a...

Were have a bunch of indoor cats. They shed a bunch espicially this time of year. The fine fluff and junk that they and the fans kick up will dust up our house in a week after we clean. We use the Highest dollar filters we can get from walmart as well in the AC. Do any of you have the Ionic...

Did anyone sign on for that classaction lawsuit for the various lawnmower engine manufactures, where they were falsely inflating HP #'s. I think there were some posts about this a yr or so ago, and i think i chimed in then. Anyway i was given a not running MTD mower. I filed in the suit and...

I have a 4 ft Jbar bushhog. The lower seal under the mower is bad and i finally am going to replace it. Took the blades off and the power bar castle nut but cant seem to figure out how to get it off? There is a round plate that bolts to the bottom of the gearcase that the shaft then exits...

Wow i have gotten the catalouge for a few years (and have ordered a few times) but this was my first time there. I was on my way back from Jax FLa and finially they were open. I had to spend 2 weeks there for a class for work. They are not open on sunday at my location and close at 5:30 on...

I have a field cultivator, with the curved points that are 1 3/4" wide and just pointed at the end. I was thinking about putting bedding sweeps on to it to make rows. I am looking at Agri-supply, adn they have bedding sweeps that appear to fit my field cultivator from something like 9"s up to...

OK here it goes. At the fear of being run off and stoned as some DNR conspiricy tenfoil hat wearing ill educated hick i hesitate to put this up hear as a learned post bachlor grad with enough credits to have a wildlife minor as well as a hunter. I have heard those say they have seen them and...

Wow what heat, and free too (well after you figure i paid for the stove). Wife says she cant beleive it took so long for me to convince her to get it. Got a used High Valley Cat model stove 2500. It currently is almost heating the whole first floor of my home which is close to 2500sqft. Now...

Found this in the woods in one of my timber sale areas. I'm guessing its an old square bailer. IT still has old bailing wire twited and ready to go on the side of it. This looks cool and wish i could get it out of there. Its really heavy built out of cast parts. Some pics to enjoy.

What are your thoughts on using in it. I use Mobile 1 5w-30 in my toyota and have since we got it 30,000 miles ago. This is a 2001 model Highlander 3.0L v-6 motor. The packaging on the 0w oil says for all vehicles requiring 5w-30 oils. I understand what the two numbers mean and the 0 is the...

I was looking through my yanmar factory YM240 servie manual. There is some things like California has mentioned like removing the pan and cleaing it. But the thing that got me is that it recomends changing oil every 50 hours but filter every 100 hours. IE. oil change at 50 hrs, oil/filter...

Looking at a 3pt splitter i think may be a deal, but the problem is that it is a remote hookup one. My ym2000 as we know does not have remote ports. I dont have a loader but one was installed before i bought it, but i did not want it or want to pay for it now so i had it taken off. The reason i...

What would yall consider a good buy on a 3py log splitter? It uses remote hydraulic hook ups not off the PTO. It is constructed with an I-beam and appears to have a new valve on it. Have not talked to the guy yet or seen it run, i have a pic but have to wait to get home to get it off my phone...

Anybody know what the factory i gues 8.??x24 rears will hold to the fullest capacity that you should put in them? I am thinking about filling all or partially and thinking about what will be cheapest WWF or 25% antifreeze solution.

Look here at what i saw while browsing the web for lawnmower parts. Its not quite as scary as the old timey time ones but still pretty dangerous. Vermont Woodsman Buzz Saw The link to the site selling it.

Does anyone know if those suspension seats that they sell in Agrisupply or TSC will fit a ym2000. I was in TSC yesterday and they have one for $93 or so that has a shock absorber on it. That would take a lot of the blow out of a long day bushhogging of plowing a rough field for 4-5 hours.

Browsing CL i saw this looks like a good deal for someone. 803-718-4104Yanmar 1700 2 Cylinder Diesel

Im thinking about buying this plow. The guy says its a ford. It measures 5-6 feet or so in width and has 5 teeth. The middle tooth is missing its spring. What do yall think its worth or should i pay for it. He said its heavy and we wont pick it up to put it in the truck, he will use his...

Im sure some of you have heard about this class action lawsuit. It was published widely and shown on the news when it was settled in june i think. Anyway you can go to this website and find out if your mower is included and sumit your info and receive a $75 each rider and $35 for each push...

As many of you are probly like me love shows on TLC and Discovery, and A&E. Well last year the wife and i got into the Colony (discovery channel i think). This season just started last week and second episode is this week. Anyway to the point. The point of the show is to put these people in...

What size are people using that works. I live in upstate SC so were talking hard packed red clay in most areas, more sany clay in others. What size should i be able to pull in this type soil with my ym2000? I was thinking a single 14 but now im thinking maybe only a 12?

Post your most wierd attachment you have or if you have something and not sure what it is. I really dont want to see any bushhogs or boxblades, unless its really old or something unique to it. I always like specialized stuff such as old row hillers sweeps and combos of the stuff. I really dont...

for lack of knowing where this should be, either welding or rural living etc, i settled on the welding forum since this is read by metal guys. I have a piece of modern CSX railroad track i want to cut down. Any suggestions, i have been told a torch and others have said that it would take a...

After replacing the coil that was shorted out several places in the wire i put my new one in and motor fired right up, ran ok for a 30 yr old engine. cut it off and back on fine. Later that evening i went to restart it and it would not. Kept going through everything respaced the coil, but i had...

I have an old wheel horse. 1980 or 81 model year with an 8hp briggs and stratton electric start on it. It has the old points ignitition on it. Called the parts store and he was saying no i dont have that coil, but we would just swap to electric ignition. I asked how as i have not done this...

I posted this in the attachment forum but have not had a response yet so i figured one of you massey guys may know something about it but dont check the attachment forum much? So here is a copy of what i put in the attachment forum. I just purchased a massey ferguoson dirt scoop. I was...

I just purchased a massey ferguoson dirt scoop. I was wondering if any body has any info on where parts are availible or have a parts or orners manual for it. This thing i think is at least 30 years old and is model NA-1.

It this worth my time? My thoughs is yes it will keep it cooler her in the SC summers and help with condensing in the summer by keeping it in the shade? But is this worth my time for the good of my unit. It is almost 2 yrs old and not been covered to date i have had other projects going. But...

I posted this question in the Yanmar forum since i have a Yanmar, but im reposting it here. This is the original question and the answers i received so far. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I know, this could/should be posted in the oil forum...

I know, this could/should be posted in the oil forum, but i wanted to hear from fellow yanmar owners about their thoughs experiences. I am thinking about synthetic oil in my ym2000 next change. My question is not what brand but what weight? There is synthetic 15w40 and the things like 0w40...

Was trying to think what i could put up front without dropping a hunded dollars on suitcase weights. I came up with railroad track and weld on some plate to bolt up. Well i called a buddy that works at a chip mill and he said that all the peices they had were to long, but they did have a huge...

OK for the sake of sounding stupid what are those tires on the pto shaft on the big bush hogs like you see DOT using? Part of a slip clutch? Cant firure it out i have looked at one on a stopped tractor on the road shoulder and it appeared that the tire drove a plate the blades were attached to...

Im thinking of switching the tires to the wide stance from narrow (i have a ym2000). How much width will i increase in my tracks. My only drawback to doing it is if my disk is narrower than my tires i will leave tracks. Does anyone have pics of their 2000 from the back with the tires in the...

If this post looks familair to any of you, thats because it may be. I posted this yesterday in the attachements forum, i thought it may get a better audience here after i posted it there, so im open to hear any and all thoughts. Thanks to the 2 guys who already posted in the attachment forum...
