    Maybe that's the extension cord for that electric (Rivian) truck

    Trailer Type Selection Help. - Towing 4WD Tractor with FEL and Flail Mower (4700 pound total weight)

    Yes, I prefer the tilt bed. I've had many conventional trailers with ramps in the past but as I got older ramps were no longer fun to use and seemed to get heavier too, plus with ramps many smaller low clearance cars have a hard time getting over the hump. My current trailer has a 22' wood...

    Trailer Type Selection Help. - Towing 4WD Tractor with FEL and Flail Mower (4700 pound total weight)

    I wouldn't worry about the 900 lb tongue weight. You can always use a weight distribution hitch. Also, your 4700 lb. tractor weight plus trailer weight (3500-4000 lb.) will be just under your truck tow rating of 9K. I had a 20' full tilt bed and found it to be too short at times. Sold it and...

    LS Model 3110 28hp: good value?

    I'm not sure on the machine. The OP hasn't replied back to confirm the model but I couldn't find a 3110 by LS. It is possible it could be a foreign model. If so then I'd be leery of buying it for parts availability.

    LS Model 3110 28hp: good value?

    Did you mean an LS S3010. If so, that has a Mitsubishi 4 cyl diesel Pre emissions. With only 300 hrs. I think it would be a desirable tractor. Ask the seller if he has kept any service records. LS has been building tractors for many years. Mainly for other companies before starting their own...

    Restarting My '70 Nova Project

    Let's just hurry up a little and get MY car done. Local car cruises start in 5 weeks here and I want to pick it up.

    Wanting to run grapple hydraulics off rear valve

    I ran two lines from a rear remote to the front to operate the power angle of my quick attach snow plow. I bought the ready made hoses and couplers from a local tractor supply store. Just fished them under the tractor to the front and zip tied in place where they won't get damaged.

    Yet another diesel question

    Red fuel is off road fuel. It is perfectly safe to use in diesel tractors but not for highway use. Red diesel is also used in home heating. That fuel pump should be marked for off road or home heating oil. If that pump is located where trucks fuel up they may be in violation.

    Blinker Switch

    Just do a search for the part number and see who sells it in your area. Most places here in US will ship to Canada.

    You Know You Are Old When

    My 50th was 4 years ago. I think the last reunion we had was the 15th, none since.

    I use a Dell laptop, Firefox, Adblock plus and Adblock ultimate. Knock on wood I don't see any ads. I hope it stays that way for me.

    Need trailer wood deck recommendation

    My 22' PJ tilt deck has also been outside 24/7 since new in 2014. Deck is PT pine (2x6) from factory. It does turn green from pollen which makes it slippery when wet but my pressure washer takes it off easily. I also coat mine with diesel and oil mix every couple years.

    Why so much tongue weight on 22' car hauler trailers?

    What kind of tongue weight does the trailer have? What vehicle are you towing with? Have you checked your trailer hitch label . They recommend using a weight distribution hitch at certain weights. Maybe your truck rear suspension needs improving. My tilt bed PJ empty tongue weight is 1195 lb...
