    My rant for the day

    Don’t get me wrong. I like JD I just hate their parts and service departments. So much so I just ordered the parts book and full repair manual for my 5115M. If I can’t fix it, I at least have the information for an independent to use to fix it at a much better rate and hopefully without the...

    My rant for the day

    Today is a Red Letter Day! Today is the LAST day I will ever walk into a JD Service Department - specifically the one in Weatherford, Tx. I had gone in earlier and told them the switch was broken on my pneumatic seat and my 3-point lift arms were not working probably due to a short as...

    Solar battery tender/chargers

    I use “Battery Tender” - get the smallest one. I swear by these - they will not boil a battery dry, keeps them ready to go, plugged in 24/7 when not in use. Cost about $40. I’ve got about 8 of them connected to 4 wheelers, SxS’s, tractors, dozer, jeep. They will take forever (if at all) to...

His son was on horseback driving his herd and cutting fences when the wind shifted and encircled him. He left two kids under the...

    Skid Steers

    I hear you. Always good to note where people are. Little bit of difference in weather between Michigan and Texas. And good point about door removal. I grabbed the release by accident getting into it and your right, door came off in mere seconds. Took me about 30 minutes to get it back on but...

    Skid Steers

    I will say this, I have both open and closed cabs and as much as I like A/C and heat and no dust, the open cab is more universal. I use my open cab as a rough terrain forklift. If you put forks on an enclosed cab and you need to lift the load some and want to get out to do something you can’t...

    Skid Steers

    I’ve ran Case skid steers for about 30 years before I got a CAT CTL. I’ll never go back. If you keep the tracks adjusted there is nothing it won’t do better than a wheeled skid loader. One thing I have learned though is check out the DEF requirement before you buy. I bought a CAT 299d3 even...

    medina gate

    Thank you Brute23. I kind of figured but couldn’t tell from other’s descriptions. You made it easy. So it’s Pretty much the same setup as the Bry Chute I see advertised. Two heavy gates will be much cheaper and have the same result. Thanks again.
