    Welding plastic

    Recently I have developed a need to weld a broken fender on my tractor. I did a search and ran across some old threads on this. I'll make a guess and think that most likely the technology to even do that has changed a bit since those were posted. Does anyone on here have any experience with a...

    Who's got one?

    Alright, I will admit to being more than a little curious about these tractors. A lot of people think a subcompact or compact tractor are too small to do real work. I beg to differ. These are a perfect size for many home and property owners. All my opinion of course. These really look good with...

    I really want an RK 24, talk me out of it. Please.

    I've been in the market for a new tractor for almost two years. I was ready to pull the trigger on a purchase in Feb 2020 and then all of this craziness happened. You can make your own decisions about the cause and results of that but that is for another place. I had talked with a guy from the...

    BH hydraulic connection, can it be used for a rear SVC?

    Here goes, I will try to explain the information I am looking for. I have a Cub Cadet/Yanmar tractor with FEL and BH. When the BH is not installed, can the hydraulic flow normally used to power the BH be sent through a valve block and on the become a rear connector for a hydraulic top link or...

    My choices in red

    I am wanting to buy a new tractor. I've done my share of lurking/research on all of the brands I could find. My choices have came down to either an RK24 or a MF1725MB. I cannot say that I read of any what I would call real issues with either other than a freak occurrence here or there. I cannot...

    Potential RK owner

    Greetings all: I am seriously in the market for a new tractor. I currently have a CC/Yanmar SC2450. After a lot of internet searching and a few dealer visits, I have narrowed it down to just a couple of brands with RK being one of them. I recently had the urge once again to fill out the build...

    Honda or Onan engine in a 420

    I have a 420 that I have not used in many years. When I parked it the engine was tired. Just couldn't ever bring myself to sell it. Recently I saw an ad for an engine conversion, I think it was for a Honda engine. I'm just curious if the Honda would be that much better than the OEM engine. I ran...

    11 year old tractor.

    Just throwing this out to gage opinion. I bought an SC2450 new in 2009. It currently has less than 500 hours on it. For the last few years I have been working out of state while my daughter and her husband live in my house (small farm). If God is willing, I will retire in a little over a year...

    RK 24 mower deck

    I am in the market for a new tractor and seriously considering the RK 24 with backhoe and loader. I have a Cub/Yanmar with both of those pieces of equipment but looking for a new tractor (warranty) and just a few more options that I currently do not have. I had seen a video recently sort of...

    Are there any SC2450 owners here?

    I am doing a little research on buying a new tractor. I currently have an SC2450 that I bought new many years ago. ( I read that these were only made for two years?) Now I am looking at trading for a new tractor of similar size and trying to get an idea of a market for used tractors like this. I...

    GC1725MB in my future?

    Been a member here for awhile but not a post(er?). I have had a sub-compact tractor of another color for a decade and seriously considering a Massey this time. Also in contention is the Deere 1025R and not as high on the list but definitely on the list is the LS MT125 (?). So far the Massey is...

    Hydraulic couplers

    Recently had a JD 420 follow me home. It's in need of a little attention but overall not in bad shape. I did notice one set of the front couplers leaked a bit when connected. Did the requisite cleaning of accumulated filth and no change. Still leaks a bit. Are there any methods for repairing...

    LGT 18H

    Anybody out there have any info on this model? I have had mine for many years and just don't seem to see much on them. Just curious if they were a short lived model or just not popular for some reason. Any info, good stories rumors or innuendo would be good. I've been a great fan of garden...

    Third valve??

    New guy here. Does anyone know if there is a third valve kit on the market for Cub/Yanmar tractors? I would like to add an angle capability to a snow blade or a thumb for the hoe. Any suggestions or first hand knowledge if this is doable? Or possibly who would manufacture or sell if available...
