    Mahindra 1533 HST good battery, won’t turn on even into accessory mode

    My 08 5530 Mahindra battery was showing 12v and had lights etc;. Took out the battery and had it load tested at our local NAPA. Showed that it had no amps to crank over the starter. Installed new batery and started right off. Batteries are not like they used to be. idaho2

    New trailer for the gator

    We have a similar trailer with also a right front side ramp.. I had my neighbor weld 8 or 10 3" eye bolt "loops only" to the top rail. No need for D rings on the floor. Our 835i is secured by straps to these loops. These also work nicely for the ATV's during the hunting season.

    FEL upgrade, can it be done.

    Have a friend with a (used) 35 hrs. 2014 6110 cab. Is wondering if he can upgrade to a ML266 to replace the 161 loader. Found out the 161 loader does not reach like the ML266 does 128". idaho2

    going tomorrow to look at 2 blade Ford turn plow

    Bansil, With those tires on that Ford 5000 look for 16" bottoms. If you have not purchased a plow that would be a consideration. Two bottoms a minimum and three wood be better. The furrow that your plow will make with 16" will be wide enough for the right rear tire and less soil packing...

    going tomorrow to look at 2 blade Ford turn plow

    This a 10-209 Ford Dearborn 3 16's paid $495.00 back in Nov of 2010. Everything was painted blue and in 3hrs of plowing it scoured to a mirror finish. Quite pleased with it. Hope you can find what you want. You can easily remove the third bottom and use two until you need a third. as...

    Another plow setup question

    rbtj, Attached photo shows my stabilizer bars with my 3x16's plow. In my opinion, each implement requires it's own three point hook up "settings". IE; top link distance for plows, back blades, box blades and so forth. The lower arms on some tractors have adjustments for each lower arm or...

    Another plow setup question

    The mast is the "A" frame and the feet of the A are attached to the Horizontal draw bar (cross member) held together by the two U bolts. Forget anything about the left side of the plow. For clarification the Right lift pin (Cat 1 or 2) is the Large bolt thru the flange that is tapered and this...
