Got a Frost Bite Log Grapple, came with 2 male 1/2" couplers. Need one female. The threads on the hose are 1/2" FPT, the new coupler is 1/2" NPT about 0.030" difference by my calipers. Anyone know about this?

Did the shopping, ordered a Frost Bite GR-2o, put it together and it is looking good. I see the holes where teeth would bolt up, wondering if teeth are needed. As a low volume user, not likely the lower jaw would wear enough to justify, any opinions?

Storm coming in a few days, just cleaning up yesterdays snow, tire blew. Cuts too. Please give suggestions.

Looking for something small but recognizing that some big tractors are a steal of a deal. Getting old and cannot deal with the extremes of hot and cold. Used 120 gallons of fuel mowing, twitching logs, rubber necking and snow plowing, 10 gallons a month. Yes, the little Iziki/Bolens 15hp triple...

Tried editing the title, sorry, it was confusing. Been looking around for a spare set of hammers for the Titan flail mower. I see there are different styles, sizes and weights. Any suggestions?

Had some noises while mowing that should not be there, shut it down. Checked the usual suspect, the mower, no problemo. Noticed hydraulic fluid on the PTO shaft and on the ground, crawled under the tractor, nothing. No fluid in the sight glass (plastic), oh ****! Noticed it was at the center of...

Bought it 5 years ago, Maine rocks are a bumper crop and the Hammers needed attention. Got on my back, full face shield, ear plugs, grinder in hand, mower on jack stands and had at it. Only ground the thumb a little because I did not wait for the wheel to stop spinning, ow. Cuts ok, better in...

Just got the logging winch off and the flail mower installed. Added 3" to the skid height, I got rocks. Doing a check over the 3 rubber belts are a little baggy, anyone have a belt tightening suggestion?

Got the crud in my tanks, 120g tank and 3 tractors. Need to filter, already applied the biocide. Did the youboob videos, mostly European barges and sail boaters to get the layout of a setup. Anyone have a suggestion of where to buy one?

While looking for a machine shop to mill down the end of a cylinder need to consider doing it myself on a small drill miller. Machine came with a small fly cutter. Where to start?

Twitching a few sticks out of the woods, had help, wanted to get next winter's wood piled up. First the attachment grappler started dripping, then one of the loader cylinders started leaking, then pissing the precious hydraulic fluid and when I pulled over to get a look it would not restart. How...

Getting old and moldy but I do enjoy a good warm fire, cheaper than oil too. Got logs, old splitter, saws, tractor with forks to move IBC totes, grapple to move logs. Building a cutting table to get the cut pieces to the splitter without breaking the bank or my back. Wolfe Ridge Mfg. has one for...

Old faithful woodsplitter is a workhorse, processed many cords of wood. '90's MTD tiltable I-beam, 8hp B&S original motor, everything hydraulic has been replaced. But it leaks, fix one thing, another squirter erupts, drips go postal. Thinking of going to a hydraulic shop. Nothing close by, means...

Have been on hold, before draining the 12 gallons of hydraulic fluid, thinking, how do we transfer it to the 5 gal buckets? What does it get drained into? Thinking a plastic tote but not comfortable with 12 gallons in one flimsy tank. Ideas? Also, got grease? I like tubes but thinking of other...

Half the PTO shaft is missing, if I cannot recover the tractor half it will be expensive. Have another couple to try. Concerned about shear if the works get tangled. M8 shear on the specs. Wallenstein FX90

$50 per gallon on Amazon, of course that is the Super UDT2. $120 per 5 gal a Messics, $60 at TSC. Before it goes unobtainium, where do you guys get it??

Have been looking for one of these. Any manufacturers to avoid? Supply issues abound, prices going through the roof, just saying. Edit, after trying to buy a Speeco, just purchased a Titan. Will have to buy adapters, makes it easier...

Got some hydraulic hoses in the mail with fittings. Is there goo needed? Just crank 'em down? Teflon tape can get into the system so care has to be taken with that.

The numbers are bewildering, pressure, diameter and ends to attach the 4ea quick attach fittings 2 different end types. Could Anyone make it simple for me? Thinking of getting numbers off the existing ends and going shopping...

Picked up one of these in January '22. For the money seems like a good deal. Hoses were crushed in shipping, requested replacements from Titan. Was on sale at the time, a little less than $2k. Going to try it without skids otherwise will get some welded on. Have to buy hose and quick release...

Have been using a rototiller as a counterweight for the 6' snowplow on the 25hp Ford. Thinking it is about time that I picked up a concrete block for the new 94" blade for the 43hp Kubota. How big do you recommend? Maybe a logging winch? The 8' rake on the back is too wide, too light to be...

Anyone done a snowplow skid shoe placement? Ordered a snow plow/skid steer dozer blade and there are no skids on it. From the comment section of seller, reviewers stated they had to put one on. Have had Fisher plows, never liked the skid shoes, anyone happy with other skids?

Took apart the ignition portion of the HEI distributor for a '82 GM 350 v8, rodents chewed the wires. Took weeks to find the ignition module wiring assembly, got one from Summit Racing, the module itself was sourced locally. At any rate I cannot remember how to put it back together again, like...

Getting old, don't really want to do it but I need to get some logs out of the woods. Kubota 43hp tractor. Thinking a logging rig. Went on Craigslist, will keep looking... Nothing below $3,000, which seems high and beyond my budget. Any suggestions?

Bought a used 8' Ringo rake, broke it, fixed it and upgraded it with a hydraulic ram from Agri Supply that is now out of stiock.

Well, 8' rake, 1" grade bolt (pin) and Maine rocks, pin broke. Looks like the 6.5" long bolt head was welded in during a previous repair. Welds everywhere, no easy way of getting to the head bolt. The broken pin is about the length of a new bolt minus the head. So, the bolt head (pin head) is...

Ringo Landscape Rake, 8', tines are breaking at a horrible rate, time to replace. Choices are Chinese or Italian manufacture, 1 or 2 holes. The manufacturer is selling 1 hole replacements, the rake has 2 hole tines. Please, your Thoughts? Edit: went Italian 2 holer Always thought 2 holes was...

Prior Planning Prevents Piss Poor Performance (PPPPPP). Marine expression I got from the kids, 2 were in the Crotch. So, last night, in preparation for the ongoing storm, checked fuel level, decided to start and push snow banks back a bit, tractor would not start. New battery, this year, ran...

The one thing I absolutely hate about the Kubota is the locking knob for the 3 point hitch control. It is tiny, difficult to turn and does not lock up where it should to lock the hitch position where it is wanted. Anyone else have this problem and a working solution?

Got a 7' Ringo rake, love it. 7' Rock Rake - Rock Rakes - Farm & Landscape Equipment But it gets clogged when doing our thing. Thinking of putting a hydraulic ram where the top link (or upper link) goes to push the rake up. Then I can back up and push the junk out of the rake. Any other ideas?

Filter light came on so I changed both air filters. Light stayed on so checked connection to sensor, hoses, clamps, all good. Then the light went out, wha-la. Did a full throttle run, filter light came on again...is it time to replace sensor???

Bought a quick release setup had it welded up, assembled and plate welded to the bucket, just went to work. Bent the whole mess so the quick release pads are wider than the plate and the bent linkage just adds to the pleasure. Cannot attach the bucket. Was not going fast but was firm. Thinking...

Been shopping for snow plows, prices are low this time of year. Got the size from an earlier thread. Now, the nitty gritty, what style, the newer flop down where the entire plow face tilts downward or the older bottom kicks back? Also looking for a frame style that can be simply modded to add a...

Started shopping for a snow plow for the Kubota 4310. Cannot buy a rake, which I could really use right now, "on backorder", "just sold it" or gold plated unobtainium expensive. Plenty of snowplows roadside, so the early bird gets the worm Plow. But how big? The 25 hp Ford has a 6', maybe 7 for...

The neighbor has a rake with 2 hydraulic cylinders and wheels. He claims it is the best thing going. Did some groogling, found a thread https://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/attachments/119030-rear-blade-vs-landscape-rake.html Ok, sold on a rear rake and looking. The 25hp tractor does ok with a 7'...

Looking at a cream puff L4310 HST w/682 loader, 600 hours. Wants $14k. Is it worth it?

Was shopping for a new or used cab 4wd tractor around 45 hp with a hydrostatic transmission. Then the issue of pollution tiers came up. Wow, some of those computer controlled re-burning rigs could mighty expensive to fix or even diagnose. Heard about Tier 3 and 4. Gack!!! Like a cat coughing up...

Whoa, a guy borrowed my MTD wood splitter, brought it back said it was broke. Replaced the pump and valve, cleaned it out, now the ram slams forward, again, Whoa, Nelly. Time to replace the ram?

Lost coolant while operating at PTO speeds past 2 days. Radiator is corroded, seepage near the bottom. Radiator has brass top, most likely original, 36 or so years old, 800 hours. Going to do the replacement/repair cost quest. $165 for a new aluminum one, $250 for brass tank. Suggestions please.

Sometimes it starts, sometimes not while shifted into neutral. Did a search, checked the manual and even Youtube. Where is the rascal, gonna troubleshoot it and fix it, not bypass it.

Just joined, have been visiting for years. Learned a lot here, a good community. Searching for a tractor, considering all the options because it sure is difficult to find a fair market value. :)

Hi all, Looking used. Kioti, Mahindra, New Holland, John Deere and Kubota dealers are pretty close by. Have been watching the Craig's List and visiting dealers. Want forward hydraulics to mount a quick release swivel plow. No urea fluid for me. Leaning toward Mahindra or Kioti as they seem...
