I have an old f150 that I am making a ranch truck. I need the hitch for the hydraulic bale lift to mount/attach to. It will not be pulling a GN trailer. I am thinking 3/4" x4" or 6" plate slid over the frame rails and under the bed will be sufficient for the use and weld to truck frame, cut hole...

I just got a MF 240 Diesel and the steer cylinders are leaking. There is some kind of home grown hydraulic plate used to tap into the Hyd fluid system and has a slow leak on top about where the seat mount would be. The seat mount is a 2x6 and not stable at all. Good news it seems run good and...

I would like to hear options. We currently raise cattle on a total of 500. The 300 acre we own and 200 is leased from neighbor. The we have 300 more acres 8 miles gate to gate. So my question is what opportunities am I over looking to generate income. Mostly brush country, very few fields for...

I have a Case 485 that I use a ratchet rake on and I basically use it like small bull dozer clearing brush around our place. Having driven some newer, smaller tractors with the quick attach. I am getting the itch to convert this old beast. Is it worth converting this old tractor? I want to do...

We have been using the typical float style like TSC and other farm/ranch stores sell. Our tanks are both oblong and round. Is there a better setup that is more cattle proof...if there is such a thing.

I am finally getting a flatbed installed on my 13' F250 next week. Its one made for the single wheel trucks. I am adding load lights to the rear and side on the headache rack. The head ache rack is not the rounded corner style, I am going with the post style I guess its called. So you can...

What's your go to manual post hole diggers? It will be used in black clay. Is the newer style with weird handle at TSC worth a flip?

Its long shot I know. Looking for pics of pick ups used to haul cattle with sideboards/racks like we used to do when I was a kid thx

Case 485. 72" bucket...I need a good, economical grapple to mount. Prefer a 2 section grapple. Looking for recommendations on a chainsaw. I will narrow it down the an Echo with 20" bar or less. Light weight and easy start is a must

I have a little angus cow, very gentle that has a growth about the size of a cantelope between front legs plus she was on the verge of calving. So we put her in the "camp" area by herself, where she could be watched by my father when he came to feed/put cubes out. The goal was to monitor the...

First and foremost, would a moderator mind telling me why my post was locked????????????????? I sure don't get the rules here, there were no arguments, nothing of the sort. Just folks relaying real life experience's to a possible situation, I may be going to be in. Who was the mod that locked...

I am 48, been married 24 years. This last year has been tough on both of us as we dont get along. Everything turns into an argument, now pretty much daily. In my mind, we have hit the point of cutting each other loose. I am tired of this crap and worked to hard for things to lose it in a...

Made a a deal on fairly heavy brush, he estimating 3-4 days. He is a good friend from work and I trust him, but would like to pirce check. 800.00 is a 12 hour day...sound right for below I-10 crowd?

Not really down yet. Ours has come done with 'board tongue" as my father calls it. Tongue is stiff as a board and sticking out of mouth, snot running profusely from his nose. I gave him 35 CC of Penicillin Sunday before I left...just cuz. That seemed to help the snot per conversation with my...

My father in his 70's is wanting a hay spear to mount in bed of our 04' dodge dually. I want it to be remote control and easy for him to operate. I just do not have time to fabricate anything with everything i have going at this time. The truck does have B&W turnover ball G/N hitch to attach...

I am interested in putting a single wheel flatbed on my F-250. I am looking for brand names to check on. I have experience with CM and DUTEC. I am looking for a steel flatbed and I prefer the non skirted, I had rather just have toolbox's under it and no skirting. Thx

I have acquired and plan to keep this one. I have 91 f250 regular cab 4x4 with a 5 spd, with a single wheel flatbed. It will see alot of fence building over the next several years. Most of which will be pipe and barbed wire. I do plan to mount the Hobart welder, a set of cutting torches and...

I just bought a 24' long by 7'7" wide commercial truck type cattle guard. What type of concrete bunks do I need to be looking for to help mount this thing OR are there other methods? I open to all suggestions. I will have a back hoe come out, do the dirt work/install etc. From what I can tell...

Any place in particular you guys are going for tractor Manuals? I need one for the MF 230 we just got. I see on ebay/amazon etc. I am not really wanting a 240.00 shop manual, need the operators manual.

I am in the market for a post driver and the Shaver hd10 has my attention. Have you used one? Did you like it? Mine would be 3 point mounted and manual tilt etc. How hard is it to set post on existing fence line?
