    54" deck mandrel issues

    I'm getting ready to work on the deck of my 917288580 lawn tractor, it's the 54" deck. This mower is 3 or 4 years old. The left mandrel assembly has been making noise lately, and I figure it's time to look at the bearings. There is a grease zerk on the end of the spindles, and I do give them...

    The dreaded Oil Cooler Elbow blowout

    It finally happened. The previous owner of my TC25D had encased both the elbows connecting the hard lines to the oil cooler with JB Weld, it worked fine for several years, but it finally let loose yesterday.

    New Holland TC25D

    Hi all! I fell into a good deal on a New Holland TC25D. I have driven it and played with it a bit. It's a 2002 model with just over 200 hours on the clock. I bought it and will take possession of it this spring when we move out to the new place on about 13 acres. The previous owner is storing...

    Hello from Southern Illinois

    Hi all! I grew up around small farms but was never a "farmer". Have had chickens, goats, ducks, bees, etc... a decade ago but had to move to town. Now we are moving back out into the country onto about 13 acres, finally room to move around in again. I fell into a good deal on a New Holland...
