I am looking at the possibility of putting some Slime in my trailer tires. It is a 20' 12,000lb utility trailer that is used regularly to pull my tractor around. Lots of highway miles! I am forever picking up nails and such in the tires and am just plane getting tired of having to plug them...

I have been thinking (This usually gets me into trouble! ). Here in Houston the sun and heat in the summer time..well all of the time , is enough to make you not want to get any seat time. So I decided I needed a canopy. My dilemma is two fold. 1) The cost of manufactured canopies are beyond...

I need an adapter so use my loader on my new tractor. Does anyone know of one? see attached.

Does anyone out there have fold up trailer ramps? I have the kind that slide in the side and am getting very tired of lugging them everytime I have to load and unload my tractor. I want to convert them to fold up ramps with some type of helper spring. Does any one have some pics of a setup...

After pricing the quick attach for my loader and analyzing all of the weights. I have determined that there are very few out there that are light enough, once you add a bucket or forks, to put on our compacts without eating all of the loader capacity . And they are very expensive . I have...

I have posted this "Loader Stop" in the Build-It-Youself section but would like your input as well!(for those who don't frequent that section).

For all out there with a <font color="blue"> NH 7308 Loader </font> you know that unless you have some thing to butt the bucket against when you are putting it back on the tractor you end up just pushing the loader all over the place. Here is a little brain fart I had the other day and would...

I have noticed on several occasions that some of the older posts are no longer available. How long do posts stay on the boards before they are removed? thanks,

I am trying to remove the turn signal switch on my TC33D from the black plastic panel and need to know how the switch comes off. I assume that the switch handle (for lack of a better name) just pops off and a retaining nut is under it. But it doesn't seem to want to pop off? Can anyone tell...

Just bought a Lincoln AC/DC Buzz Box. Now I am wiring up the plug that is supplied and need some reassurance that all is well. Attached is a pick of how the fuse box is wired to my main service. This was here when I bought the house. The previous owner built race cars and had a welder on this...

I have just been given a 55 gal drum that had hydraulic oil for a elevator in it. I was wondering what is the best way to clean this thing out before I put diesel fuel in it? thanks,

It's A Girl!!!! My first daughter was born Wed morning. It was a very long labor but everything went well and everyone is doing great! Here are some pics.

Hey all, Been a while since I have posted. Good to talk with all of you again! I need to make a inexpensive rake to rake up several acres of grass clippings. I am cutting it with my RFM and need to cut it every week to maintain it (In the growing season). My probelm is that there is so much...

Fellow TC33D owners.....How long can you go on a tank of fuel? I am looking at how much fuel I will need for any given day of work. I guesstmated that I used about 3 to 4 gallons last Saturday 6:30 am to 12:00 noon. Is this what you all have experienced? Thanks,

Well, I really put my First Choice RFM to the test today. This was the first time to cut my place and the grass was about waist high!!!! It did an outstanding job!! My First Choice RFM is one tough cookie

OK Team Blue...It\'s time to step up! I was just perusing the Reviews section and noticed something disturbing....The amount of New Holland reviews vs Deere and Kubota..... I think it is time some of you guys that have had your Blue Machines for a while step up and do a Review. I know that...

How many of you out there bought service manuals for your tractors? I called NH and got a price of $178 for my TC33D! Is this what you guys paid for yours? Are there other sources that might be cheaper? Thanks,

Well after taking the senic route from new tractor to used tractor to this tractor to that option and a ton of input and advise from my fellow TBNer's I finally have a tractor! I did the deal on a TC33D with R4s, 7308 ldr, 60"HD bucket, bolt on cutting edge, 3 hooks welded on to the bucket, and...

I am negotiating on my tractor deal now and was going to ask for a 50hr service in the price but got to thinking and I don't know what all is invloved. What parts(filters) and what fluids are being changed? How much is this service worth? Thanks,

I am also looking at the TC35 (12X12) with 16LA/72" HD bucket/Folding ROP/ Deluxe Hitch. I REALLY prefer the Class III Boomer for the fit and layout! I am thinking I can get into this for about the same money as the TC33D with 7308/60" HD. What are the costs on the TC35 with above options...

I am trying to close a deal on a TC33D before the end of the month and needed input on Super Steer. I liked it a lot on the Class III Boomers but was wondering how much of a difference it made on the class II. Is it worth the $$$$ for the Super Steer? I know you get the auto 4wd clutch. Does...

Hey Spencer200, I am trying to work a deal on a TC33D before the end of the month and was wanting to verify my numbers. I am comming up with a dealer cost for TC33D non Loader ready with R4s of about $13300. Is this right? I really want to tighten my belt on this but would like to know my...

I was running some numbers and I might be able to do a TC33D with SS, but was wondering if it would handle my 72" First Choice BB3072 Box Blade? TC33D owners now is the time to speak up! Thanks,

I have had this grease gun for years and have never figured out a good way to fill it with new grease. It is the typical gun with the pump handle and the screw off grease canister with the pull plunger at the end. I know there has to be a better way of filling these. I have tried several...

Well I got my First Choice BB3072 Box Blade and 72" RFM last night. These are some very well made pieces of equipment! I have not had a chance to assemble them yet but took a couple of pics. I will post more as I get them put together (hopefully tonight!). Please excuse the picture...

I went by my local dealer today and may have taken a test drive on my new used tractor. It is a 1988 Ford 1920 2wd. It has very rough fenders and is missing the grill but runs like a champ. It has the 4 cylinder diesel and shuttle shift like the new TC35. This is basically a TC35 with the...

Well, since I am going to have to wait a year or so to get my new tractor I will have to live with an older one until then. I was wondering, has anyone ever converted a rigid mount FEL with front mount Hydro Pump into a quick attach? (1960's Ford 3000 type) I was looking at one the other day...

Well after all of the research and agonizing decisions on what color to get and then what model and then what options. I finally decided on the TC40D with SS. I was about a week away from signing on the dotted line when..... Dealer called and the interest rates went up and the rebates went...

I just talked with my dealer. He said that NH has reduced the rebates on Class III Boomers and the interest rates have gone up. I don't remember the rates, maybe Spencer200 can post them. That is a total bummer!!!!!!!!! Was just about to get my TC40D with Super Steer. Well I guess I will...

7\' First Choice RFM on 6\'9 I have just purchased a First Choice 84" finishing Mower (will hopefully have it in a few weeks) and need some sugestions on how to trailer it. I have a 20' utility trailer that is 83" wide from inside rail to inside rail. The mower is about 90" wide. The rails...

I am wondering how the hydro trans work on tractors. Is there a torque converter like in a car or is it a hydralic pump that turns a motor like in a hydro post hole digger? Just curious!

I am in the final stages of negotiation with my dealer. TC45D with ss, folding ROP, Deluxe hitch, R4's, 17LA Loader. He is telling me: Tractor $19,900 Loader $3,890 Tax will be about $1,500 I think he has room to move, or at least throw in some accessories i.e. Grill guard/arm rests...

What is the status on the new web site? I have noticed more and more disscussions on your equipment and am looking forward to purchasing some myself. What are the latest pieces of equipment you have available? Thanks for the time you take to gather input from real users and the effort you...

I was at one of my local NH Dealers the other day and they had a used TC45 with a "Grannon" (spelling?) by Woods box blade with Hyd Scarefire. It had Tilt and top Hyd cylinders on it. I also noticed that they had welded 2" flat bar to the bottom of the lower link arms to form a "T" beam type...

Need you opinions on RFM\'s.... I need to purchase a rear finishing mover for my 2 acre lot. Mostly flat, semi hay and St. Augustine grass mixed. My dealer handles BushHog/LandPride/Rhino. I will be looking at a 72" (6ft) rear discharge. I am looking for comments (good or bad...especially...

Any word on the NH program for June... Rebates changing or interest rates?? Thanks for all of the great input and perspective you give us!

I just stumbled across the Case IH site and was looking at what they had to offer as far as compact tractors and could not help but notice that there D45/DX45 were the identical tractors (except paint) to the TC45/TC45D spec for spec.... Has anyone out there noticed this? If this is true I...

I am trying to determine what would be the better choice. I have 2 acres mostly flat field. Will be using a bush hog on some of it (I like the 6ft on the TC45, should save time)and a Finishing mower on the rest. Will be maintaining a long gravel drive and lots of flowerbeds. I also do a lot...

Who makes the diesel engines in the TC45? I have searched the boards for the answer but didn't have any luck. Thanks,

I am in the market for a used diesel 1965-present tractor on a relatively light chassis. In the size range of a large compact or a small utility tractor. Around the 3000#-3700# range. With between 35-45HP. Would like it to be able to handle a loader/box blade/6ft brushhog/and 6ft 3pt finish...

I am interested to here from anyone who has a TC34-TC45 tractor with a FEL and Rottery Cutter as to how they transport it. I am looking into trailiers and I am leaning towards a 18' Falcon Superduty I. But after looking at it and then looking at the overall lenght of the Tractor/FEL/Hog it...

I am going to purchase a TC45(non hydro/non SS) R4, Folding ROP, Deluxe 3 pt Hitch for $16,800. I was thinking I want to add a 16LA loader with Heavy duty Bucket and Forks. Does anyone have a price on these? How easy is it to remove and reinstall the loader and swap the Bucket/Forks? I also...
