    Stuck coupler on X465 mower drive shaft

    As the title says I cannot get the collar to slide on the mower drive shaft to allow it to come off and the mower deck to come out. I had this problem a couple years ago but I messed with it long enough and it finally released. This time I spent about 3 hours trying everything I could think...

    Design for a cradle for a winch

    Does anyone have a good design for a cradle for a portable winch. I want to be able to move my #3500 winch between my two flatbed trailers. Or even mount it in the receiver on my pickup so the cradle will set on a 2" square tube. I am open to all designs and ideas. Thanks, Todd

    Fasse Valve issue

    I have a Fasse valve to use with a grapple on my loader. It seems to be bypassing at a certain pressure. When you activate the grapple it grips down to a certain point then it is like it bypasses and the curl function moves instead of the grapple gripping tighter. Thanks for any help. Todd

The problem I have is when I went to remove the deck from my JD X465 last night for new blades, cleaning under and on top I could not get the collar that lets the drive shaft slide off of the PTO stub to move more than about 1/8...

    JD 757

    Anyone have any experiences good or bad with this mower. My son is going into semi commercial mowing and we are looking to get him a zero turn but am hesitant to drop the cash on a new one. I have chance to buy a 2005 local. Its not just for him we have a business with a fairly large lawn to...

    2002 Duramax I need Some Suggestions

    Guys, My 02 Duramax has been having problems when it gets below 0 out. I treat the fuel with Power Service, initially I thought it was the transmission because it felt like it didn't want to smoothly shift thru the gears. Usually it got better as the truck warmed up and completely disappeared...
