Seems to also be a language barrier here in Yankeeland, USA. The OP states "What did you do to your tractor"... not "What did you do with your tractor"...
No bigee as anything to do or with a tractor is a positive thing.:)
My today's to included checking bolt tightnesses on the FEL grapple system and my today's do was hauling tree limb cuttings out to the burn pile. Used to be that I would have to tie the unwieldly branch load down to keep it from falling out en route but now with the grapple, the process is effortless.
Sutol, If you can get your hands on a fifth of Labrot & Graham, Woodford Reserve, Distiller's Select Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, it is truly a remarkable American (since 1812) sippin' whiskey. We keep a bottle in the locker for special occasions.

I measured the FEL on the L4400 for a tooth bar. Ordered one from my Dealer. It's made by W.R.Long here in NC.

Thanks for the boozy advice, always appreciated:thumbsup:

I would change the thread heading if I could but it'll have to do.

I'm going to do something to mine today hopefully, maybe spray a little more paint on it:D

Sutol, most of the bourbon is made here in Kentucky or in Tennessee. What kind of bourbon do you like?

Asda (Walmart) :D

KY boy here, literally cut my teeth on bourbon! Momma would dip a Q-tip in the bottle neck and rub it on my gums when I was a wee tad (pre-OralJel days).

I knew I liked you guys for a reason! :laughing:

I am just having fun with the following statement. What side is the steering wheel on ?
Craig Clayton

Kubota (maybe other manufacturers too) is applying shifty solution. They placed the gear shift lever in the middle, between the legs. But I'm always in confusion thinking about which hand I have to use while engaging a gear. :D

And then another question: how did N.America choose the left hand drive? Is that a French legacy? :D

What did I do to the tractor today?

Put some more paint on of course:D

Not drying very well and a little blooming of the paint but hey, it's all blue except the backhoe which hasn't been prepared yet.
The hood looks a bit pale in Empire Blue so it'll have to be painted to match.

another job for another day :)

Was going to paint the backhoe on the litle Ford but found that we had a leaking seal on the bucket ram and a badly worn pin at the top of the dipper.

So no painting today, perhaps tomorrow, watchin 'Bullitt' with Steve McQueen on TV at the moment:)
