Most likely purchasing a new used truck in the next month or so. Been searching and finally have it down to a select few. No matter which truck I select, it will be set up for my needs as soon as possible. I have always had at least a toolbox on my truck, sometimes multiple, but recently I have...

Hey guys, sorry I haven't been around much lately, been super busy. And to be honest, I haven't read too much in the "Haying" forum, so please bear with me if a lot of this is repetitive. How successful have you guys been with <5 acre haying? We are more or less looking to do it for the fun...

This is me disking the garden with our M4900 and the nieghbors disk. It's from a while ago, and kinda poor quality. But any questions, feel free to ask. Just wanted to post it. Enjoy :thumbsup: Kubota M4900 Disking - YouTube Kye

The small farm I live on has been surrounded by neighborhoods, makes the view terrible, but I'm 16 years old, and always find way to make money next door doing cleanup. I was curious, what do you guys think of battery powered chainsaws and hedge trimmers? Normally, I would never even bother...

Hi all, These past few years, we have been plowing and disking some before rototilling, mainly for the fun/history of our land. We have used our neighbors disk for most of this. I believe it's a 6'-6.5' because on our M4900 it extends to about the center of each tire in the rear. We have a 4wd...

Got some new ones out there. Let's discuss :thumbsup: http://www.deere.com/wps/dcom/en_US/products/equipment/gator_utility_vehicles/gator_utility_vehicles.page? Kyle

Here they are, there's a few more still in the barn, and we also have a 72" RFM and a 60" bush hog that go on a Ford 1620. Sorry for the crappy cell phone pic. Left to right: 1994 Ford 1520 72", 1007 hours 1997 John Deere 455 60", 1711 hours 2011 John Deere X740 62", .7 hours 2003 New Holland...

This weekend I'm at the beach, Ocean City, MD. As I was walking the boardwalk, I noticed a Bud Light delivery truck. I'm always intrigued by trucks, especially cabovers, so I took a walk over to it. It was a Chevy T8500, and immediately noticed that was odd, as most Medium Duty cabovers I see...

2004 L2800 with loader, 72" RFM, 140 hrs, gear drive, and I can't remember the tires as it's been a while since I've seen it. I am 75% sure they're R1, 25% R4. Thanks. Kyle

As some of you know, i have an '85 S10 run off road as a farm truck. No plates. It has what I believe to be about 130k miles on it. It's drivetrain is the 2.8l V6 with a 5 speed and 4x4. Well, I did lots of towing with it yesterday, and it made me realize what all I've put this truck through...

How many people on here are volunteer or career firefighters? I'll be 16 in November and plan to join a local VFD. Anybody have any good advice on how to go about it or things to look out for in a department? I've had a job for the company for years, and paychecks and hours the last few years...

Hey all, I've been gettin in the zone for hunting this year with my stops to TSC, Bass Pro, Under Armour, etc. I'm puttin up stands and tracking my bucks and gettin ready for shotgun season (I don't bow hunt). So I was wondering how everybody else was doing this year as far as setup and if...

We are the proud new owners of a brand new 2011 Dodge 2500 CC 4x4 SWB, white in color, Laramie level. Of course, it is a Cummins. It is an awesome truck. Every option except running boards and a back up camera (it's my mom's, so we need one), we will have those installed. Pictures are on my...

Hey, guys. I know most of us don't want to hear about tree safety another time, and I don't either, but here goes. We were working today with 6 total hired workers along with me, my dad, and my grandfather. I was running around on the AC with a wagon and two other workers picking up sticks...

You guys may want to check this out. Polaris did tons of stuff this year. -24hp Full Size Diesel model -Dropped the full size 500, picked up a mid size 500 -Mid sized 500 crew -New Rzr look -Picked up a newly colored Rzr4 That's just what it appears so far, and that's just utility vehicles, I...

Okay, so i found another one. This time a red 2002 Yamaha Grizzly 660. I've always had a thing for 660's, guess its just more of a motor I'm used to. Anyway, the guy wants $2,200. Now, you're probably thinking there's a catch. You're right. It has 6100 miles on it, and it smokes and the shaft is...

I had the opportunity to drive a 997 Z-TRACK at the dealer today. That is the large, 31hp diesel, 72" one. I didn't have long, as there was a storm moving in, that ended in 1"+ hail, so I'm glad I got off and inside. From the time I had, it felt like it had tons of power. It was pretty smooth...

This has been a long week with all this snow. I haven't posted in a loooong time, so I will need some time to catch up on things around here. Just thought I'd share how many things got stuck this week. 1.1999 Jeep Wrangler 4x4, stuck in unplowed driveway, about 20" at the time, needed the M4900...

2010 Polaris RANGER RZR 4 Side By Side Utility Vehicle : Overview Kyle

Well, I've been off and on on different things. Between different brand, size, capabilites of a lot of ATVs and UTVs. But I want to know what I *should* be looking at in terms of ATV, not UTV. Here is what I want in a quad- --over 350cc --4x4 --towing capability --reliable --main brand, no off...

The line of Polaris' defense models of UTV and ATV have been around for a while, but when I was scanning through the list today, I found this and thought you all might be interested in seeing it. http://www.polarisindustries.com/en-us/PolarisDefense/Products/RANGERRZRSW/Pages/Features.aspx Kyle

Our local Polaris/Deere dealer gave us a call today saying that they had gotten in the 6x6 Ranger we had asked about with the toolbox already on it. As soon as I got in the door he threw me the keys and had me take her around to where there was light. I stuck the thing in low range not wanting...

Okay, as some of you know, I have an '85 S10 with the 2.8l, 4x4, and manual. And a guy my sister knows is selling an '86 S10 Blazer with 2.8l, auto, and 4x4. What he has on it that I don't- -3" body lift -3" fame lift -aluminum wheels and 33" muddin tires -aluminum air intake -Holly carb -and...

Well, as some of you know, I have a little S10 that I drive around the property. And if you're in my area, you'd know that it's been raining for almost a week straight. Well, I was doing a project my mom had to video tape of me driving, and when I went to spin the tires a little, that little bit...

I had the idea, just today, about taking my 19.5hp Craftsman, removing the front axle, and mounting a Gravely or the like two wheel tractor to the front, and have a pivoting, two motor, 4 wheel drive tractor. I would sit on a sit fit to the hood, and only run the gravely motor, until extra power...

I am looking for an antique JD model 72 front blade. It supposedly fit A, B, G, MT, 40,420, and 430. I haven't decided on a price limit yet, but I would like to hear your price or if you know someone with one. Also, if you know of any that fit either and MT or a B, and know of one available...

I found a custom Pony xPress toterhome, with small living quarter and then a gooseneck/fifth wheel deck on the back. It was on an '05 F450 4x2 frame with an auto. How much longer do you think it would hold? It would be a nice truck to tow some antique tractors around with. Anyone know of...

Does anyone have anything bad to say about this age S10? We have one that we bought a few years ago for my mom to use to go get groceries through the woods but we no longer have that property so we can't cross it anymore. So it sat for a few years. We got it running yesterday with some fresh...

Sorry to keep on posting stuff like this, but I'm in the process of looking for an ATV. Does anyone have one? Preferably the AMT600. How many different engines could you get in them through the years, I've heard some people saying 8hp, 10hp, and 14hp. They appear to be the same width as an ATV...

Anyone have one? How has it been? Any problems to date? Any Comparisons to similar quads? Kyle

We just got a new electric golf cart for my grandmother to replace her old gasser. So, that means we can work the old one a little. We currently have a lift, tires, winshield, canopy. We're definitely gonnna add a hitch and lights. Any other ideas? Doesn't neccesarily have to look the best...

As some of you know, we have contemplated buying an ATV/UTV not seriously for a while now. UTV wise, I'm pretty much set on a Ranger XP/HD, Diesel 4x4 Gator (HPX or XUV), and recently a Yamaha Rhino, since the majority of our work will be towing. But, I kinda slid into ATVs. I saw a few of the...

These 1959-1960 tractors were great. They were 430 low, wide fronts, but had GM diesels in them. Does anyone have one? I doubt it, but it'd be great to get a conversation going on these tractors. Here's the specs: TractorData.com John Deere 435 tractor information PS- That's what I'm driving...

Not looking, just wondering. Could a 4720, with the 58hp, loaded R1s, loader, and cab, which, put together would = very heavy. Do you think this tractor with eHydro could pull a 12ft disc in low range? Thanks! Kyle

I just did a price check to prove myself to Dad. I'm a Deere man. He's all for the next two, Kubota and NH. But he said Kubota was cheaper, and here's what I came up with: Kubota 3240--34 engine HP, 4wd, HST~ $20,100 John Deere 3320-- 32.5 engine HP, 4wd, HST~ $18,900 Yes, the Kubota does...

I saw one at tractor supply the other day. It looked pretty nice. I don't know the model, but it had a 33" deck, 10.5hp, 4spd forward, and 1spd reverse. I would like to use it for cutting the small lawns next door to the farm, that are too small for anything over about 36", but even that's...

Okay, one of my crazy ideas, they make 61" pull behind mowers for ATVs and UTVs. We have an extra 72" woods rear mower. With a swivel hitch, and a motor it could easily be towed and cut crass with the golf cart, a smaller tractor, or possibly a UTV in the future. My question is, what size motor...

Okay. Please, I will mention things that we do that are totally wrong and should not be followed. Please, keep the comments related to the story. I know what we do is wrong. I was moving the Cub Cadet 1450 that hasn't run for some time and is hydrostatic. Therefore, we can't manually push it...

A while ago a posted a thread asking if we could be the current record of almost 1500 users at a certain time. Well, we certainly came close today. Just think it's cool to watch the count, maybe you should follow it... Kyle

Is it possible that an animal is too old for castration? The animal, which is a goat in this case, is an older breeding goat. If we got him or one similar, we would not use for breeding. Especially if we had more males that females for all the obvious reasons and then some. So, that's the...

Ok, we've recently borrowed a BX23 to dig some asparagus trenches, and it was great. We used it for other small odd jobs as well. We think we may get one. Here's what I came up with: John Deere 2305---$16,718 Kubota BX24-------$16,673 Kubota BX25-------$18,445 All TLB with R4s and 12"...

Wat exactly is a vibratory plow? Thanks! Kyle

I was on a missions trip to Philadelphia, Pa. I fell off a bunk bed Friday night in my sleep. It is really bad. I landed on my face I have what will most likely end up a scar, and I sprained my ankle. Glad it wasn't worse. If you have young children, put rails on or don't have one. I'm 13, but...

We're having a great experience with one we're borrowing right now. We think we may just buy one. I know, I kinda say that a lot, but what could be expected for asking and taking prices? Thanks for any help! Kyle

I'm hoping some of you boaters could chime in on this. My grandfather is looking at boats. He hasn't decided the style, but knows that it'll be medium size, and run on an outboard between 100-150hp. His question is: which of these makes (Yamaha or Mercury), would be better for a boat of this...

The thread in Buyin & Pricing comparisons, I think you know what I'm talkin about. I'm 13, don't need to see that crap, there might be other young people on here, too. Kyle

I just bought a boom pole. Has anyone found a really good use that use didn't think about doing until use got one? Anything unusual? Any customizations? Also, I bought a Farm Force brand. The top-link point on on the pole looks like it has a weak spot at the weld. Anyone noticed any problems...

Anyone have one? How well do they hold up? Any attachments up front? If not, any test drives? For those of you who don't know, an HD is pretty much the same as an XP but has power steering, better suspension, a little heavier built, option for attachments up front, and $2k more. Kyle

This guy is great. You can be traced easily to 1930s. Probably longer, and we still can learn from this. Especially for a gardening newcomer. Check it out. Growing a Vegetable Garden Kyle

Title may throw you for a loop. We are getting a new truck sometime this year, and have decided we want a headache rack. We also have plenty of truck toolboxes, but have never put them on our farm pickups because we need the room in the bed. The rack will be custom built, of course. I've come...

I guess most of you guy's have heard of the new diesel in Grand Cherokee's, my question is, except for economy, how much power difference between the small V6 diesel, and the Hemi. Anyone know/test driven one and can compare? Kyle

Do you guys have an opinion on a good price for the following- 1984 Chevy 5/8 ton Diesel Blazer -4x4 -4 or 5 speed manual; a little late but not bad -military used, just released -heavy duty bumpers -38,000 miles -second row of seats -pintle -rust through only inside front fenders, and bottom...

What is your favorite 3pt implement? I'll start us off and say, our york rake is my favorite. Kyle

Hi, we currently have a Ford 1620 with tires and a hydro transmission used for the gardening. We would like to get a used tractor that has the following- -Hydrostatic -Preferably R4 tires, but not too picky -A loader -Less than 500 hrs -Between 30-35 hp -1999 or newer Now, I'm not asking for...

After a few hours of work with it today, I can honestly say- BEST 3PT ATTACHMENT EVER! I don't get to use it too much, but when you do it is the most useful thing to have. I wish a would've taken pics. The big job I did was scrape up literal tons of compost. Our pile is 10ft high. With about...

We found an L3010 with loader, ags, and Befco rake. Not too sure of year (seller was not there), but the hours were 474. How much is it worth? Kyle

I clicked on the "Mark Forums Read" button towards the bottom of the page out of curiosity, and now I can't get back to how it was! Help me please! Is there a way to get it back, or will I just have to live with it? Kyle

All you guys who own a 3x20/4x20 with a cab, how well can you see the bucket when the loader's all the way up? I was just looking around on eBay, and saw a 3520 with a cab and a loader. One pic showed the loader all the way up, and it didn't look like you would be able to see it that well seated...

Has anyone heard anything from him lately? Latest post I could find from him was on 11-26. Anyone know what happened to him? Kyle

This could be a rather long thread. This is not being posted to make ANYONE feel inferior. The meaning of this is that you post:Where you live, what you live on(acreage), who in your family you live with(wife, son, daughter, etc.), what equipment you have, where you work, and what animals you...

Does anyone know why when I was shooting the paintball gun, a paintball exploded in the hopper? Overheating? Kyle

We have the oppurtunity to buy a 24' gooseneck livestock trailer. It is an '87 Moritz with a dry weight of about 3850#. It doesn't have brakes, and we need to haul it from his farm in Ohio to ours in Maryland. Not too sure how far exactly, but I'm guessing at least 300-350 mi. Do you think we...

This may be better suited in build it yourself or something, so if it needs to be moved, please do so. Many of you know I am 13 years old. Well, if I want to build something, most of our tools are in the Compton Ac& Heat service trucks, or in the only barn I don't have a key to. However, I...

This is a tractor site that was in an old issue on Mother Earth News. They sell Jinma's and some other Asian import stuff. This is their haying equipment. Targeted mainly for CUTs btwn about 20- and 50-hp. Pretty cool. I don't know much about hay equipment, but these seem kinda pricey. Anyhow...

Can anyone point me in a direction to find a tow behind 3ph for my ol' S-10? It would mainly be used for plowing snow. I would prefer to have one go directly into the receiver. I don't know if I would want to invest in a plow up front. It may be used for other things but plowing snow would be a...

Ok, we have been looking at cattle for a while and been getting help on countrybynet.com, but want to know if a york style rake can rake dung into rows to make it easier to collect. Like angle the rake, and get closer in every pass. Do you know if they would perform this task? Has anyone tried...

There was a guy I remember, he had like a King Kutter carryall and built a wood box on it. It had a short, removable rear wall, that when removed and places on two stubs, it made a bench in the box. Know who I'm talking about? I would love to see it again. I believe he had it on an older...

What are some of your scariest tractor moments? What crazy things have happened to you during operation of equipment? This is mine, probably- -This morning, I was aerating at my school. I was aerating a low part surrounded by hills, on very steep. The one that was steep was the one I had to go...

Has anyone been quoted on Kubota's Power Krawler? I know it is mainly available in Canada, but watched a Youtube vid of one in Cali. I'm not to interested in buying, but it sounds interesting.

Here is a link to what looks to be a very nice trailer manufacture. I found it on page 51 in the towing/transporting forum. I also posted it there. nicholstrailer.com

This is something I found on page 51 of this forum. In other words, it is a very old post. But these guys look like they make pretty good equipment trailer, and ATV trailers. || Nichols Trailers of Wilton, Maine || Welcome! ||

I probably will not end up doing this, but, has anyone added 3pt connections on the back of there tow behind liog splitter? It would be neat to be able to lift it up, for soft ground, and fiording creeks. Another use would be to tow something using the hitch on the tow hitch front part of the...

We have a big Befco post hole digger, and it is a beast to take on and off our M4900. One day, after setting up for a big party, we had the idea to dig a hole with the auger, and let it sit in there. We went as low as we can go with the 3pt, sso it is at the perfect height to put on and off. I...

Does anyone have a T1520? We have a TC30, 1520, and 1620 and love the walk through station. It would definetly have a mower deck to replace the 1520, but would go a step up. Also would be nice to replace the 1620 tilling the garden and stuff. But anyway, does anyone have them. If so, what was...

My neighbor has a 1941 H that he is trying to sell to us. I have driven it and is it usual that the hand clutch doesn't have a locking position? If I were to drive our B, i could push it forward, let it go, and it stays there. On the H, I push it forward, let go, it comes right back down. It's...
