    Pin on/off Thumb

    T5C S/N

    I don't, but someone here does. Bobby Harper shows up sometimes, he used to work there and is a wonderful source of information. He is seen sometimes in the FB groups. Post a photo of your machine, no roll bar, one roll bar to 2?

    Picking at a stump, outside was rotten but center was solid! Yeah, I was pleased my welds from a couple years back held.

    Need help replacing Terramite backhoe 2WD front spindles

    Is there room to get a big pipe wrench on it with a long cheater pipe on the handle for leverage? Heat on stuck nuts is alway a good thing, just be ready to extinguish the fire if the old grease catches.
