Ok boys, You knew it would be just a matter of time before I rased this point as I brought it up here...http://www.nettractortalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=643 This is not an "I told you so" but rather a point for a new tractor buyer to consider. To sum it up, If you are a small time...

Am I correct in guessing thet loader was not OEM??? Be carefull not to overload what the front end of your tractor can handle. I bet that loader can pick up way to much...maybe you can adjust the relief valve to kick in sooner

Curtis and SC, I think a dealer "stock" fix is not going to fix much for very long and if it your dime anyway I would call around to area welders/fabricators/skidsteer construction guys and get their opinin. After all your dealer is the one who set you up with the faulty setup in the first...

NIca, There is close up of californias rusty bolt collection that shows his bolt together top link...It might give you ideas. I also wonder if the tractor alternator can pu tout enough juice on is own. It could keep your battery topped up(so would a cheap solar charger) but I think you will...

THanks J, So far you are right. Undecided about the fate of the day I took the best option and fell asleep. I just got up and excitedly looked out to see if I could go plow so I could at least FEEL productive, but we only have 2 inches so far. WTF? It has been snowing all day! Speaking...

Yeah, I'm a little bored too, School was cancelled and it is snowing but when I got the call at 5:30 it had just started and I thought "what whuses!" I decided I won't go mill even though I need to make a few more purlins because it is snowing and I would have to take my plows off to put my...

Hi, here is a shot that shows a bit of everthing. A chicken coop, the bus on the barn, the old place, some of the treehouses the wife built, the new house frame going up, a drag shed and the kids...but no tractor, dump truck or excavator...how did that happen?

J, If you are bored, Whats your prediction for Canaan NH? 03741

Nica, You are my kind of guy! Not afraid to weld stuff up and see what happens...rep points for you! I am considering making some kind of platform on my counterweight to mount a winch...problem is I dont have a winch...yet Any pointers on picking a winch?

SC, New thought, would it help your situation to double up on the pins? Add another next to the existing? I don't know if you have space for this. Larry, It sounds like you, Dougster, DKvince and at least one other guy all had this problem with their QA's I wonder why they dont start...

SC, To bad your dealer isn't a little more helpful. What a bummer. Out of fairness to the dealer I suppose FEL's wern't designed for dozer work but you are not the first person to do it, that is for sure. ANd I assume he sold you and installed the bucket didn't he? What did he think you...

Hi, You any where near Shinnston? Thats were my forbears came from. I too am interested in the Jinma as it strikes me as a bare bones no frills machine that can get it done for not a ton of $$$

I'm w/ you Paul...When stones become a hot commodity I am IN THE $$$

Any boat/canoe/kayak/paddle makers near you? A good body shop at least? I would say if you can bring the hood to them and they throw a super composite fiberglass patch on it you will be "Better then new" BUt if it were me I would proabably go the autoparts/hardware store and get a fiberglass...

Mobilus, I too share your concerns on what an ATV can haul, but The grapple isn't for you, it's for Dougster...That said rusted old log trucks can be had for cheap in these parts grapples included (and then I would have another old truck to play with!)... If I had need and the time (and the...

That is fantastic! Brian you are my new hero!

Dougster, If you went to your local steel supply place they would sell you 2ft long (or whatever) peices of 2x4 tubing for your stake pockect plan. They might evn punch those holes in it at a very resonable rate(sure beats drilling in steel yourself). If so have them punch one toward the...

And here is another option... www.remorques-jms.qc.ca/en/remorque.html If a dang ATV can haul it why cant your truck?

MIth, What if you liquid filled your front tires? I saw a unit once that aguy made from a foot or so hunk of thick wall 4 inch PVC sewer pipe capped with two cleanouts . He tapped an air compresoer quick conect on side and a regualr tire air nozzle on the other. He would fill the tube with...

DOugster, You are implying that there is somthing less than perfect with the stick, but in many instances it is the perfect tool. If you want pick up some "jet rod" and anti splatter spray and after a slight touch up with a grinder lay a bead with the "jet", let it cool and hit it with spray...
