Well I attempted to replace them this weekend. The Circlip (keeper ring) was no problem, it took about a minute to remove them then I got to the bushings. Those things are in there. We tried several things. Pounding, putting them in vice to push them out and couldn't get them to budge...

Anyone ever done this? I have the pump and will be doing this soon. Looking for advice so I don't have to learn the hard way. Only issue I see from looking at the new pump is a nut at the end that goes into the housing between the Power steering pump and Hydraulic pump. I just wonder how it...

I just finished my second cutting and got some great Coastal hay but I had to skip some fields due to sandburs. I have tried several things over the years to eliminate them. I've sprayed Prowl H2O with no results. I fertilize trying to chock out the burs with good results in some fields but...

I'm using the Plastic Twine 140 Lb Tensile Strength on my 4 x 5, 1,100 lb hay bales. The 140 lb is working fine but a little nervous to try the 110 lb. Just curious how the 110 lb holds up. Anyone using it?

My dad is looking for a Garden tractor and found a JD 650 fro $5,000. Has around 700 hours (garage keep) and is in very good condition. Haven't had a chance to inspect it yet but was wondering if the price was about right. 4x4 and everything works (per owner). It comes with Land Pride...
