I have located a good condition 47 snow blower from an X series tractor. I want to retrofit it to my 4110. I am aware there are several different mounts for this snow blower. Anyone have the width of the quick mount or the length of the long drive shaft ? I have a small fabrication shop and...

Long ( did I say long ? ) cold winter ahead in the mid west. Next tractor project will be a cab for a 4110 John Deere. Read a couple build threads and want to pick out the best details in place of my usual trial and error methods. In depth details like wiring, heater examples, fresh air...

Looking for a better seat for the 4110 Deere. Anyone change out or modify the existing seat to make it more comfortable ? This is one feature I would like to improve and make seat time more enjoyable.

Hit up the local dealer for a price on a cabbed 3520. Not many options ( mid pro, turfs, hydro, 1 rear hydraulic port ) to speak of. Only 13% off full list. Incidently list was five hundred more than the build it yourself price on the JD site which is probably shipping. I have viewed posts...

I bought a pile of old windmill parts with a pump, some fan blades, bent tower supports and spent a day sorting and checking what was usable. To my surprise the pump dates back to 1901 with its cast iron case survived the fall from a forty foot tower when taken down, or I should say crash...

Bought a new left over 24" bucket for the 611 Bradco. I know I said I was going to build one but I stumbled over this example at the steel yard for one fifty out the door. Per my luck it doesn't fit my boom width so off with the attachment ears and on with some new ones. For a small bucket is...

Another go around with the hydraulic oil and filter. @ Near twenty dollars a gallon I hope there is magic in the Hy - Gard transmission oil. I guess if it moves things correctly it is a must. The trouble is justifying a $35.25 filter Kind of grinds on my assumption of '' being held up...

I have noticed the newer mowers have small plastic rollers in place of the old style larger wheels. Do they serve a better purpose or was it a cost savings move ? To me it just looks like the smaller variety would dig into the ground easier although they are wider. Would like to see the decks...

I have a 8' fan and pump from a windmill that was taken down years back. I straightened the fan blades and filled the oil galley with automatic transmission fluid. I have it on a 9' stand temporarily just to see if it would require additional work / repairs. It has been turning for two years...

I bought a NH TC 55 with HSS and could not ask for a better fit. New Holland or its conglomerate shifted production to Korea while changing the model numbers and designation. I asked several sources and no straight answers were returned. Did they keep the shibera engine ? Did the manufacture...

Looking at buying one for trimming around the pond and property edges. Anyone have info on this model.... years available and if the wobble system was a good working system ?

Thirty eight hp sounds like alot of zip for a small frame tractor. Just saw an ad for one. It said prices start at 16k for the E series. They still continue with the two speed hydro. Three speed should be minimum.

I am sure there is a post on them but no luck in the search process. Wondering if anyone uses them. I had a new set when I traded for the 4110. Like a dummy I didn't remove them. Anyone notice a major difference with them ? I sharpen blades every 5 or 6 cuttings. I cut almost six acres...

There is a 2008 JD 5203 for sale on a local craigs list for 25k. Looking at the pictures it sure looks like a clone from a Mahindra plant. The gear shift directly out of the top transmission case, the square tin fenders. Are some of these economy models stenciled JD manufactured in competing...

I have a 2004 JD 4110 with a 60" MMM, 59" snow blower, and a shop built PTO vacuum. I like to update every so often just to stay current and of course have shiny new reliable equipment. The problem is I have no idea what would do a better job with the implements I have by trading / selling my...

Sure would be nice to attach a FRONT 60 or 72" finish mower to my 1100. With the rear engine layout a drive shaft pto set up would be out of the question. Its a shame to have six plus acres to mow and have a vehicle with a/c sitting under the tree. I realize pulling a gang mower or a...

I understand the 55 is still available from the factory as a cab only model. Is a complete cab available for older models through New holland ? I realize there are aftermarkets available but not interested in them.

Ran into a slight problem lifting the snow blower. It wants to force own but not lift up. I changed coupler position and it did not help. All of the sudden it will work fine for ten minutes and quit again. Fluid level is half in the sight glass. No presence of ice in the system as it is...

When it is below zero my side windows fog up quickly. I split the heat between the windshield and side glass with the deflectors, heat on high, with or without a/c on it still prevails. The cab itself is not cold, but not to the point of turning the blower speed down. I am wondering if adding...

Last time I checked ( about two years ago ) the parts department did not list the glass seperate for the 1100 doors. To get sliders the complete door had to be ordered. Something does not seem right. Maybe you buy the expensive glass... they throw in the door ! OR maybe the parts lady did...

My 1100s cab is so tight it is very difficult to close the doors. I have noticed the new models have a plastic / rubber relief panel in the front lower panel. Has anyone put one of these in or have something that will work ?

Went to the JD store Friday looking at the new and slightly used compacts. The new 3320 looks stunning. They wanted within a couple hundred of MSRP for loader and tractor. A used one was a couple thousand less but I did not get the build date so it may be close to being out of warranty. At...

Reading about their new technology break through design. The deck is domed to prevent rust and build up debris. This results in a deeper cutting chamber which is credited for cutting material shorter. Chances are the price will be new also being announced in January. I don't think I will...

Bought a used one a couple months back. Very nice heavy unit only three years old barely used. Every field was cut with a bushhog late in the season. I will have to wait til spring to see the quality of cut and how it performs in thick tall areas.

Just completed making the mounts for the 4110 / 59 snow blower. Training the new operator to stay on the drive and not follow rabbits / squirrels may be the biggest problem. I hope there is no cab with heater in his contract. I know about day lite operation only. Nights are for naps and...

I have read ( no documentation at this point, maybe wishful thinking ) the Deere Company is switching a bunch of model numbers on compacts ( maybe their whole line ) ... basically the same machines with a new numbering system. They just came out with the 1026R, supposedly it will be a 1025...

Looking to start collecting materials for a three point stump grinder build. Anyone have experience with this or know what works best for an arbor / disk to mount the carbide teeth on ? The frame looks relatively simple with the swival and I have a heavy duty angle gear box, pto shaft. A few...

Done just in time for the falling pine needles. I realize the capacity isn't going to be great but I only do the areas under the pine trees, not lawn clippings. It is designed to come apart easily with minimal bolts, mostly slip fittings. The combination of lawn mower blades and the fan...

Looking on CL for a used flail mower found a 7'6" Mott ( at least that is what the owner suspects ) for $100.00. It needs welding in a couple places and some flails are missing ( but 90% of them look in good condition ) . For this amount I can do a few bearing and cutter replacements to see if...

It seems I am always finding items just a bit different than I need. The price is usually right but the application is usually for something entirely different. I bought a Kubota fifty inch snowblower. It should mount to my 4110 with ease. Wouldn't one know it turns the wrong rotation for my...

Seems I can check the box, and still have to go through the sign in process. Lately it doesn't last a complete day. Is the trouble in your set ?????

I have located this 24" bucket at the local steel salvage yard. It was in new condition but not the correct deminsions for use with my Bradco 611. My boom width inside is 6 1/2" ............. Bucket width is 9", 2 1/2" too wide to fit into the boom ears. Bucket cylinder linkage is 5"...

Stopped at the Deere dealer today for parts. Noticed they had a two year old 2520 with less than 300 hours on the lot with a 200 loader. Outright cash price is $15900. Salesman said it would list for $19500 new so they are discounting it 3600 ( from full retail ??????? ) . The machine was...

Going next week to look at a 917 flail that needs cutters. The rest is supposed to be in good condition. Anyone have any info on this machine, is it a Ford or renamed Italian brand with Ford decals ? Paint is supposed to be orig and good cond so it can't be too old. Any idea what these bring...

Just had 35 acres logged and have a mess in the woods to clean. I know I can throw the chainsaw in the RTV 1100 box and go but I also use the TC55 NH for clean up ( when the saw gets the best of me and I need a break ). I don't want to drill holes in the loader mounts and it won't fit well on...

Are all six foot flail mowers belt driven ? I had a used one of Italian design that ate belts for breakfast. It also had a terrible time with tall grass and the cutters were new. I would like to buy a replacement. I like the fine cutting no clump debris left in the field. Any specific models...

I have been looking for a Miller 252 MIG for a while. They never seem to go on sale and rarely come up on CL. This is my third Miller with a Lincoln 255 in the mix. Have to admire it a while because soon it may be scratched and have the "used " look. It fits right in with the recent Ellis...

With so many variations available does anyone have a source with normal prices ? thanks.

Warn winch on the 1100 sure proved to be a great option. Touring adjacent to the pond my son, dog, and I found an overflow area without a bottom. Not counting muddy shoes for hooking up the rest was a breeze. The winch dragged us 40 plus feet in an area that was dry last year. I could not...

I purchased a Nortec Pirahnna 6' PTO rock rake. It is a " Biscayne " model without the ability to angle the drum. Anyone have a quick and easy plan to convert this to a hydraulic cylinder turning mechanism ? I have no idea why they even considered this stationary option as the whole idea of...

Why does deere keep changing model numbers every couple years ? I am sure within the series the components are the same and with a few minor changes they have a " new and improved model " for those keeping up with the Jones's. My 4110 is eight model years old with 267 hours. I am sure if I...

Finn rock rake, 72" wide. Tore the small bearing from the U joint. I was at my local farm store, Tractor Supply, and ag dealer. No one carried the correct bearing size. Metric, American, we must have went through twenty plus sizes. Either the bearing cap was to big / small or the U joint was...

Finished my 12' dump trailer and need to build or buy a container to hold straps, battery, and electric pump. It came out as an odd shape, 27" at the rear to a front taper approx three feet in width. Anyone have any ideas on construction ( tin or aluminum ) and needed features?

Anyone build or own a PTO powered vacuum for lawn care ? I am about to use my imagination and build one. I have some parts, pieces, and a blower housing. If it don't work I won't be out much but time. The pine needles have won in the past. I hope this will be their downfall.

I hear rumbling NH will take back all cab optioned compacts that LS was to build. Quality, design, and engineering not up to their standards. Is this just a rumor or are they taking back a handed off manufacture segment of their product ?

I recently had a 35 acre woods select cut. The logger had a Jonsered Turbo, I think 2171 sounds correct, anyway that saw was amazing. In several seconds it reved to 12,000 rpm and cut like the chain was on fire. Very impressive tool. It has been in service for a number of years and nearly...

A friend gave me a 12 volt pump for the dump trailer I am building. The aluminum case says JARP which is a firm in Wausau, Wi that manufactures hydraulic rams for escavators. The pump connected to the starter has John S. Barnes Corp. written on it and a model number of GC 5052 A CA 1. I can't...

I purchased a Honda water pump at northern tool and as usual they didn't have an owners manual with it. They will order one and it will probably be 2 weeks getting to my mailbox. Anyone familiar what weight / special requirements this Honda engine requires ? I don't need it right away but I...

I know of a 1200 Ford with a broken crankshaft that is for sale. I have been searching the internet for over a month and haven't come up with an engine or crankshaft. One site has an advertised price of $1000. for the crankshaft but has none in stock. Anyone aware or a replacement engine that...

Does anyone have a source for buying a two or three stage hydraulic ram that could be used for a dump trailer? I would like to build a trailer 6' x 10' with 3' sides and a capacity of 12-14k. Lifting from a reinforced front would work much better than the mechanisms commonly used nearly...
