I really like that set up. I'm not so handy so I went with a winch lift system:

I'll be picking up a JD 835M next Friday. Open cab, half windshield, turn indicators. I'll be adding a winch from WARN and front tool rack. Maybe I can get a few pictures of it before the wife drives off with it next week...

Has anyone seen or tried this new UTV from NH? Some other manufacturer is making them for NH, but I'm not sure what the comparable model is. Opinions or more information is welcome.

I'm curious if the 336 requires a a knotter from only 336 or if a knotter from a 14T, 338, 348, 12T etc would work on it as well.

The kicker will throw one bale, but the pan won't float back down. If I lock it into safety, it will drop back down. It's like there's a hydraulic valve that's not closing correctly after kicking. Anybody have experience with these? I just picked up the baler (which works great otherwise)...

I'm about to start troubleshooting my 026. I've owned it from new and it's always was a little tough to start, but now, I need to spritz starter fluid into the air cleaner and it starts first pull. Otherwise, no go if it's cold. It cuts strong and revs up fine. When it's just idling, it...

I found one of these that's running fine, but the rollers are pretty worn down. I was wondering if anyone has tried resurfacing with strips of old tires for example. I looked at the price or replacements from John Deere, and "Wow!" is all I have to say. :rolleyes:

No rhyme or reason. Tractor starts fine, runs for a while and then just shuts off. Sometimes it restarts quickly, sometimes it has to set for a while and restarts. The fuel line is completely clear. The fuel filter has been changed. The injector lines have no air. Anyone seen this...

Sometimes, especially when the temperatures have dropped in the last 24-48, the fuel gauge and tach fail to register a reading while the tractor is running. Sometimes they will suddenly begin to respond to the sending units and read correctly. Sometimes not. The problem is very sporadic. I...

The last 18 months has seen two ice storms, one heavy snow storm and 2 heavy wind damage storms: I've always been of the mind that "I don't want to own a chipper when I can rent it for the few times I need it" mentality. The last 18 months has convinced me otherwise. For what I've...

Looking at a used one, but I don't really know much about mower conditioners. Are these reliable units?

In my part of the world, deer can be hunted only with shotgun slug or muzzleloader. I'm more inclined to shotgun. Any favorites for the expressed purpose of firing a slug at a hunk of meat?

Can I remove the head without unbolting the rocker arm assembly? It's not that big of a deal, but if I can just undo the head bolts, and keep the head/valves and valve train all intact, it will speed things along.

This is a 5120 Mow'n Machine. It's pretty old. We've had it 5 years and it was bought used. It currently has a B&S Vanguard 12.5 hp engine. I don't really have time to rebuild this fall/winter and would like a drop in solution, but the 12.5 Vanguard isn't available anymore. It is horizontal...

The start of the story is, our tractor had fuel starvation symptoms from a prematurely plugged fuel filter (not our fuel btw). It was out in the field and I helped the repair guy (still under warranty!) do the repairs. So I was texting my wife to let her know we had it running. My phone has...
