I haven't used my pto much since I have had my TC45D, and the original owner never used it, and the tractor sits outside all of the time. It has been used a bit for tilling and bush hogging this spring, and tonight while tilling, the pto lever stuck "on". I wasn't driving it, and it caused a...

While doing some research at work, I found the following link, which gives some inspiration for ways to boost the power of our tractors when we get in a really tight spot. Chris Rocket bicycle of Tecnologia Aeroespacial Mexicana

I am interested in installing a D3/931 backhoe onto a farm tractor. Does anyone know what its weight(the hoe itself) and reach are? It is a ways away, and I would like to know if it is a wild goose chase before I go. I have looked many different place, but can't find any info. I think they...

Does anyone know how much a Catepillar D-3 backhoe weighs? They also fit a Cat 931 trackloader. They are from the late 90's, I think. I have looked for specs, but could not find them. Thanks Chris

Has anyone every a logsplitter valve such is described below. I am designing a diy logsplitter, and this seems like just the ticket. However, I'd like for someone else to have been the guinea pig! Just curious Thanks in advance. Chris Prince LSR Rapid Extend Logsplitter Valve - Cylinder...

I am pursuing the installation of a standard QA system on my NH TC45 tractor. The implement side attachment plates are readily available, cheap, and space efficient. The tractor side attachements are not. Because they are out of my price range currently, or extend the bucket significantly...

While this is not directly tractor related, it is indirectly in two ways. I had the rear differential on my pickup(97 dodge ram 1500 2wd) give way. I thought it had worn out, or I over stressed it, by pulling to much(like a tractor), but what really happened was the nut that holds the ujoint...

Y'all, I have a 2001 TC45D with Supersteer. The front hose on the turning cylinder had a hole worn into it today. No big deal(less than 20$, with 1300 hrs on the tractor). However, others who have this class, with SS, may want to check the hose(there are actually 2 of them) out, and...

I recently pulled my tractor onto a concrete pad for the first time since I got it 3 months ago. I had seem some indications of oil under the front 4wd driveshaft housing. At first, I thought it was from excessive greasing of the stabilizer bar. On second look, though, it is coming from...

Y'all I have recently purchased a NH TC45D SS 17LA, originally thought to be a 2002, but it turns out was made in 2000. I paid 16,500 and it has 1200 hrs. I have learned much from this forum, and hope to contribute in the future, but I am still learning. I will be using it to load, unload...
