https://www.messicks.com/nh/142797 Attached parts diagram shows pivot arm, spring and pulley. Idler pulley appears to be available, at a reasonable price. Pivot arm could be fabricated with bent flat iron and a pipe with inner sleeve. Price of spring is outrageous, but a cheap sub might be...

The first issue I would have with your arrangement is keeping the gear box aligned with the pulley shafts. The sleeve between the gearbox output shaft and the pulley shaft is not made to absorb this misalignment and will have a limited life. You could replace the sleeve with a universal joint...

Surplus center also has a good selection of seats.

If the 1" equipment ìs so much cheaper and your worried about flow and pressure drop, why not put 2 1" filters in parallel, giving max flow and less of a drop?

Sure, it will work, but maybe 6 inches of penatration at the most.

I' did a 12' height with a 12' door on my 48 by 64 pole barn. Only regret was when it came time to concrete the floor, the trucks couldn't drive in. Had to pull panels off the sides and chute it in.

This site may have been shared earlier here but if not this is nest cam in a county park north of South Bend, IN. Looks like she is sitting on eggs, a little early from previous years. https://environmentalchange.nd.edu/resources/nd-leef/live-bald-eagle-cam/

Digging through some older Osprey photos from my neighborhood. Endangered and reintroduced by the DNR about 15 years ago, they seem to prefer the triangular cell towers at least in my area. One tower is 3 miles and the other about 15 out. Apparently microwaves and strobe lights are no...

It's about time I added a few photos to the batch. This nest is about 3 miles from me. The pair have a nest in this group of trees for at least 4 years. Original nest and tree blew down last winter and this was built in an adjoining tree. A neighbor witnessed them building this nest and the...

It does not matter because there is a designed bypass so that the pump circulates the water through the block for an even warmup.

Replaced the thermostat on my tz18da. Yours looks like the same engine. Ordered and received the Stat and gasket. Drained antifreeze, removed radiator, removed fan and belt, removed 9+- bolts securing pump, carefully pried pump from spacer plate. That's as far as I needed to go for Stat. You may...

If it is a high efficiency furnace and vents through the wall and not up a chimney, check to see if those outside vents are not obstructed by frost, snow or debris.

If your tires are NOT fluid filled, consider lowering the pressure to around 12 psi. If radials, you could go as low as 8 psi. But things to consider are: if front wheel assist, lower all tire pressures, if loader equipped and carrying bales etc, can you lower pressure and risk popping a bead.

Things to consider: Will your 1025 pickup the aerator high enough to travel across gravel or pavement? Will it lift it with the additional ballast? Good luck

It would help if you gave your location and distance your willing to travel.
