    $500,000.00 fine and/or 5 years in federal prison for a first offense. John Deere

    You can pay a John Deere dealer to take a tractor home, but John Deere refuses to acknowledge that tractor belongs to you. this is so bizarre I really don't know where to post it. how about a poll to see just what farmers think of this? John Deere just told the copyright office that only...

    Front bucket hooks gc series

    this is just one example. YouTube the hooks on mine get used quite often. no bracing has been required. it is usual much better to pull from the bucket end using the backhoe or whatever you have hanging off the back of the tractor for ballast.

    GC2410 Glow Plugs

    lol! I pulled the plugs, but the testing part was not necessary. I know the picture is crappy, but my phone lens is hooped. as you can see, the new ones are overall longer than the originals, the ends are all missing from the originals but they still seem to be full width down past where the...
