After bringing the spacing in the alignment / tracking is off. Does anyone know if adjustment can be made at the spindle? I'll wear these front tire out quickly if I don't adjust. Thanks!

Curious if anyone has compared these two -- is the Massey much better / heavier made? I have a XR4046 that has been a fine little tractor, but I'm moving up to a cab -- too many times where I have just a couple of hours to work and getting dusty / sweaty before having to run to the next job is...

Sorry, I know that this has been beaten to death in other threads but I wanted some of y'all's opinions, too. We are looking at getting a XR 4046 and have only had tractors with R1's, dealer is pushing R4's. The tractor will mostly be used for bushhogging and some of the terrain is hilly...

I've looked to no avail -- does anyone have any idea what loader might fit one of these? Thanks.

As it says, looking for a heavy, solid, simple (preferably) MFWD 45-50ish HP tractor for bush hogging, pulling 2 16's, and maybe running a small square baler. I want something heavy and sturdy, not that keen on 'roided out lawn mowers. I was looking at something along the lines of a Mahindra...

Okay, what am I missing? I can't get the 3 pt to go back up after letting it down. It lifts easily by hand. The dipstick above the pto is registering oil, but It's clear... I've fooled with the two knobs under the seat... any thoughts? Thanks.

I picked up a MF 5460 this week and used it for the first time today. The coolant gauge never moved - can't be normal, right? It should have at least come up off the far mark, right? I was bush hogging and stopped on several occasions to clear all of the seed and fluff off of the grills...

Were all 2008's tier 3? Any easy way to tell? Thanks

Well, I was just about to pull the trigger on a 2010 CX110 until I ran across a couple of MF's for about the same price. The CX has 1500 hours, the 2008 5445 has under 500, and the 2006 5460 has around a 1000. All with cab and loader, the CX has the Xtra shift 24/24 and the dealer says the MF's...

Well, I was just about to pull the trigger on a 2010 CX110 until I ran across a couple of MF's for roughly the same price. The CX has 1500 hours, the 2008 5445 has under 500, and the 2006 5460 has around a 1000. All with cab and loader, still waiting to hear back on the transmissions on the...

I'm looking at a 2004 JD 6320, currently no FEL although one will be added, with 2500hrs. They're asking $44,900 or $51,000 with a bush hog loader. Sounds a little high to me -- what are your thoughts? Thanks in advance.

Huh. Watching dad bush hog a little, he dropped a wheel over a hidden stump, started spinning. Going slow, in low 1. Hit the diff pedal, clunk-clunk-clunk -- not terribly loud, but there -- then nothing. Had to pull the diff pedal up manually. Now nothing. Just bought the tractor a month ago so...

Has anyone ever run across a MF 178, 188, or something similar here stateside that is MFWD? The style of the 135 / 150, just bigger and MFWD? Thanks.

I just picked up a 68 Massey 150 diesel that requires priming to start. Once it starts it only idles -- but if you hit the priming pump it will rev up and run like a top. I cannot find any diesel leak anywhere. Any ideas? Thanks.

I'm looking for a smaller utility tractor, 45-55hp, MFWD, heavy framed and bare bones for heavier bushhogging, etc. JD has changed their number systems up so much over the years that I cannot keep up with them. Thanks everyone.
