    Anyone live near a windfarm?

    The waste water that Palo Verde uses is transported via a 6' (I think) "drain" from the 91st Ave treatment plant. I was working for an equipment dealer in the late 70's - 80's, half way between the sewage plant and Palo Verde. Had a couple of contractors whose equipment that we worked on. Been...

    Want to change tire size on 71 Ford 4100 tractor

    Sounds like you have a "row crop" style tractor. Utility style tractors have 26"/28" rear tires. You would also have to change front axle outer extensions and spindles. Would help if you could get us the model number off of the ID plate under the hood. A side picture of your tractor would be...
