Looks like I will be following this thread. I just bought a Titan rock grapple with SSQA attachment. My John Deere 6405 tractor has a screwy JD QA setup that no one makes implements for. I did find an adapter, but it cost way more than it is worth. So, I have bought the "center cut-out" SSQA...

I listed a tractor move within Texas on Uship and got a number of quotes. I used one to move the JD 6405 from near Dallas to south Texas. Cost was about $800 two years ago. Likely more now with diesel at over $5/gal.

Years ago, I had a riding mower that we used to mow about 2 acres very often,(Houston area). I welded up cracks in the deck so many times it got to where I was welding over welds. I had a sheet metal shop bend up a rectangular deck out of 16 ga crs. I welded the corners, added new spindles...

I have one similar to this from HF. But mine was about $30. Works great. https://www.amazon.com/Vestil-VDC-1000-Vertical-Clamp-Capacity/dp/B0052PVXW2/ref=sr_1_37?dchild=1&keywords=drum+clamp&qid=1620420213&sr=8-37

Ok, so I have a Ford 7000 that I am about to change out the injector pump. The procedure for this tractor is to line up a timing mark on the flywheel with a small inspection port on the bell housing (with the #1 cyl at top dead center) and have the pump on the #1 cylinder when it is bolted on...

So I have just inherited a JD 1520 utility tractor. It has a bucket with pallet forks. The forks will not lift a table that I estimate weighs about 1000 lbs. I put a gauge on the hydraulic supply line to the bucket control valve and it shows 2000 psi at all times except while the bucket is...

I put this in "Welding" because I have water in the fuel of my Miller Bobcat 250EFI. I have not used it for a couple of months and now it will run for a few seconds then stumble and usually die. I have emptied the two inline filters and it may run for a few seconds and then die. I have...

This is a little off topic as there is no tractor involved.... I am trying to help my granddaughter get a carport built at her house in west Texas. I am 300 miles away and have no knowledge of that area. I have done a google search and came up with two possible builders in her area. One...

I have ordered parts to overhaul the carb on a 20 year old Briggs & Stratton 4hp lawn mower engine. The carb float and needle valve just came in and I see a small rubber "cup ring" in the package with the needle valve. This is the needle valve attached to the float that regulates fuel into...

I have a vacation cabin in the mountains of Northern New Mexico. I am going out there just before Christmas. The local electric co-op is going to install a connection to their fiber optic internet while I am there. I want to install one or two wi-fi enabled cameras while I am there, one...

Farmers fight for the right to repair their own tractors | Fox News

I bought one like this last year from HF for $24 on sale. I use it with a 55 gal metal drum. Unfortunately I can't find it on their website now.

I have a question for the collective wisdom here. Can a thief remove the digital lock from my safe and replace it with his own? If that is possible can he not just replace my lock from the outside of the door with his own and enter his combo and open my safe?
