    6 cu ft ballast box cat 2

    There are multiple cat 1 ballast boxes out there. I am looking for 1 that is cat 2, 6 cu ft. Do they make kits where you pour concrete in a diy form? Would need the metal attachments. I dont have a welder so thought it might be more financially feasible to just purchase a box and fill it with...

    Pat's Easy Change  Calling Pat’s Cat 2 owners - Are you happy?

    Long story short, I’ve got a 85hp MF. I’d love to have a smaller tractor but this one is paid. I mainly use 3 attachments - bush hog, box blade and a grader blade. I’m also contemplating a land plane. We typically leave the bush hog on, which is a pain due to how long it is. Makes it hard to...

    Quick Attach for Cat 2

    And brand preferences for cat 2 quick attach? I've done some research, and most seem the same as long as you get the adjustment for the top hook. Speedo has one that doesn't require the pins, but they only seem to make cat 1, not cat 2. I'm thinking of going Titan. It's for a JD 5055e.

    Tool Cat UW50 Dead as a Door Nail!

    Howdy all. I've got a 2023 UW50 with low hours (500?). The other day I went to start it and it started rough, but it was cold (20*F). This isn't unusual in and if itself. So I hit the Stop button, then hit start again to cycle the plugs and there was simply no power. No lights, no screen...

    Tool Cat?

    I have a 1997 John Deere gator 6 x 4. I love this machine, but the frame is rusted and I fear she’s not going to be with me much longer. I use my gator almost every day year-round for hauling crap running out to fix fences, hauling water to the pastures, etc. I am really toying with the idea of...

    Scag Tiger Cat II or Kubota Z781?

    I went out and looked at two mowers to replace my elderly John Deere 430. I picked out a Scag and checked it out, and then I went to Kubota and looked at pretty much the only comparable thing they had. Both products are American-made, although I guess the Kubota's Kawasaki engine must be...

    Cat 1 disc with cat 2 arms?

    I have a cat 1 three point disc that I want to use with my cat 2 tractor. I've tried to attach it, but the cat 2 arms won't pull in far enough to latch to the cat 1 width. I sure don't want to heat/bend my lift arms. Do these style adapters widen the cat 1 attaching point enough to fit the...

    Ok, a couple of months ago I purchased the CAT 977K. Running good, but bucket hydraulics weren't working. So it is now time to figure out what is going on. I've tracked the leak down to a pipe/hose junction for the lower lift cylinders. And, of course in the most inaccessible location...

    So I have a B2601 tractor, I need a box blade for it. They are frikn $$$$ for a 5 ft blade, so I have a 7ft or 8ft almost new box blade.
