I have had a Mitsubishi D1300 4X4 for several years now. Found this site on google. I am looking forward to finding info for my tractor. It has a loader and tiller. I made a fork lift attachment that replaces my bucket with three pins. I use that more than the bucket. It has a hitch receiver so I can move trailers with it also. I made an adapter that goes in the receiver to install and remove my pick up canopy. Its one of the most useful tools I own. I am also a member on the Corvette, Saturn Sky, Duramax, and Adams Polishes forums. I need to keep track of all my toys.

Thankyou. I am in western Washington. The alternator went out on my tractor.last weekend. Seized up. It looks like it is the original one. Found a new one on the web for a fair price. Its on it's way. You can find me on other forums by my avitar. My user name changes a little although this is the most common.

Well I got tired of that old Mitsubishi. I sold it for more than I paid for it. I bought a new John Deere 2025R. It has a loader and backhoe. I also got a Frontier fork attachment and welded a 2" receiver to it. And I got the thumb for the backhoe. I also got a 48" brush mower and a 72" rear blade. We got an abnormal snow storm and it took me 12 hours to clear my 200 foot driveway with the Mitsubishi. That's when I decided it had to go.

Hello duramaxsky, & welcome to TBN.
Naturally your insights are welcome here. But in addition, I'd like to express my personal thanks to you for your clairvoyance. By the date of your intro. post, you knew I was on my way here almost a decade in advance! AMAZING!
Perhaps in the future we can discuss stock market investment tips.

Greetings to all. Thanks for taking the time to share your insights with the largest tractor community in the solar system.

Enjoy the Summer.

PS
Anyone here know the step-by-step procedure to add an avatar? My Ford 1520 might be getting a little lonely.

It was 18" on top of 5" of packed snow. That little guy could not push it. One bucket at a time and dump it on the lawn, each scoop was about 6" of progress 48" wide. With the back blade I have now I could scrape back down to the packed stuff. That would have been good enough. But even in 4wd it wouldn't dig the soft stuff on top of the ice. Had to clear it all.
