The clock turned to 50 last evening /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif. I have all my oil and filters ready for the service, but I am now stuck here at work /forums/images/graemlins/mad.gif (I shouldn't even be doing this...).
Anyway, I had to supplement my tools with a torque wench and metric accessories. That’s when I started looking more closely at the bolts .... most are non-metric and it looks like I still need a 1" socket to check torque on the FEL mounting bolts...
I wasn't sure what the bolt markings were, so a quick internet search provides plenty of info (http://www.akrongear.com/bolt_head_identification.htm is a good site)
In the 50 hours, I got the drive smoothed out and big piles of dirt (and shale) stacked behind the house /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif (lowering grade 1-2 feet for drainage, patio/deck area creation, landscaping, etc)... Judy (wife - thats her on the tractor), just looks and assumes that I know what I am doing /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif, and the piles will be gone by snow fall .... I'll post some pictures when I get further along...
