Pipe wrench with handle extension pipe. But, you'll only get to 're-configure' it a few times until it leaves home. Why not just raise the deck height a notch so it doesn't get caught on the WELL COVER again ???

Why not just drill a new hole somewhere else and weld a patch over the 'hole' area ?

Buy another tractor and part out the blown-up machine. I work with a gal who does this for fun, buying auction machines and selling the parts that are expensive & shipable. Makes money on the deals, especially accessories and pumps. wheels. You might not break even, but it will lessen the...

Your 75 h.p. tractor will be selling for $240,000 the way our money is depreciating. My grandparents told me what a loaf of bread cost in the late $20's.

Reel mowers are only used on the 'green's. Fairways use batwing type JD rotaries around here. I just attended an auction and bid on a few used ones. https://bids.sheridanauctionservice.com/auctions/43030-corunna-hills-golf-course-liquidation

Check your deed. Mine doesn't allow ANY unauthorized utility encroachments. I have authorized ONE for a $5000 'fee' for a County EMS network line. That's it.

My Hy-Run tubes DISSOLVED when I tried to fix a burst seem with 'rubber cement' and a blowout patch.. Try a different brand. Carlisle has worked well for me. Yes, welded wheels intended to be used with tubeless tires often have weld flash that will puncture a tube. I mark the position of the...

Good point. What was the original situation that you thought you needed to change the o-rings ? Maybe it was a false flag. Like TinHack suggests here !

Chinese steel from same junk that the rebar came from that failed in the Bangkok State building collapse. It's called "tofu steel" over there.

I bought a manlift trailer without a title (needed because of weight). Went to a District Court and a judge signed a DOT form assigning abandoned vehicle ownership to me. Paid $15 to DOT. Title came in the mail the next day.

I don't believe you have the springs or rear tires to handle a gooseneck SAFELY. While it's possible for some 1/2-ton trucks to tow certain gooseneck trailers, it's not generally recommended due to potential safety and mechanical issues. Gooseneck trailers typically exert a higher percentage of...

I am very familiar with a hub failure exactly like that: John Deere 14T baler hub. Plunger side.

I found front & rear R4s as new take offs on FB Marketplace from a golf course switching to turfs. There are currently 2 other ads for the same deal there right now.

There's a gal mechanic on YouTube that recommends soaking the line spool with WD-40 after you load it.
