    Adjusting Duals on JD 4650

    Recently bought a JD4650 that has new duals on the back. Currently they are spaced for row crop planting. We will only be using the tractor for pasture tillage. Is there any harm in adjusting the outside duals closer to the inside tires? Is there any advantages to leaving them where they...

    Massey 4710

    Looking at buying a new tractor and have been looking at the Massey 4710. The dealer down the road had a 5711 I looked at last week. A very nice tractor but I think it is more tractor than I really need. It seems the 4710 will fit my needs better. Tractor will be used for pulling a weed...

    Pipe/Post pounders

    Can the Montana 350 be connected to a loader that does not have a skid steer connection and has the Euro type connection with the hooks?

    Plow vs. Disking vs. Chisel Plow

    Thanks for the input on the plow. I finally got everything plowed and I am starting to disk now. I have noticed in the middle of different areas I have created a valley where the plow came together from two different directions. Is there any easy way to fill the "valley" back in with dirt...

    I wondered about that. I guess I can call Big Tex and ask about that.

    Dovetail Trailer Tires

    I have owned a Big Tex 35+5 22 GN for about a year. Its a 2011 model and the tires have been good so far until last week I had a blow out. The current tires I think are original. They still look good as I think the trailer only has less than 5,000 miles on it. The current tires are a...

    New Holland Draft Control

    I think this is how I will have to do it. Guess I'm still alittle confused on what the position lever is doing if you lower the implement using the draft lever. In my mind the position lever should lower the implement and the draft lever should set the allowable draft up. Obviously I'm wrong...

    New Holland Draft Control

    Had another thread going about plows and settings and I think I got that nailed down. Question now is about draft control. I read the manual and I seems pretty clear but I’m still not doing something right when operating the tractor. With a plow the manual says use position lift and draft...

    Plow vs. Disking vs. Chisel Plow

    I tried it again yesterday afternoon in another part of ground that was dryer and it did pull it. I do believe I need to get it setup better also. Can I put a level on the main frame to level side to side and front to back? Also any tricks to insure it is straight with the tractor. Thanks for...

    Plow vs. Disking vs. Chisel Plow

    Update on the plow. I brought it home and got it set up. Took alittle while of adjusting to get it to run right. At first it was only plowing with the first two moldboards. Pulled it no problem. Once I got it set right to get all three moldboards in the ground my tractor wouldn’t pull it. It...

    Plow vs. Disking vs. Chisel Plow

    I have found a plow I might buy but am wondering if my tractor will pull it comfortably. My tractor is around 9000# 75 hp with Front wheel assist. I have attached a few pics of the plow. It's a three bottom with 16" moldboards. Its a heavy plow also and seems well made.

    Taylor Pasture Dream

    Last week I bought a Taylor pasture dream from a dealer. It was barn find that looks almost new in the pictures. My question is about the fertilizer box. Is there any precaution I should take when using the fertilizer box. I plan on cleaning it out good after every use and storing in a barn...

    Plow vs. Disking vs. Chisel Plow

    Thanks for the info. I am going to have to buy either a chisel plow or bottom plow. It seems I can get a bottom plow for about half the price of a chisel. I will probably try the bottom plow route first.

    Plow vs. Disking vs. Chisel Plow

    I am in the process of converting 15 acres of bluestem to bermuda. It is going to baled this week and I will spray with gly shortly after. Once it is sprayed my plan was the run a chisel plow through it than a disk harrow after. Would it be better to pull a plow through it first than a disk...

    Tire Food Plot Drag

    I am going to make a tire drag to drag over my oats after disking and broadcasting. I have 6 old truck tires I am going to use. My plan is to put three in the back row, two in middle and one up front. I am going to pull the drag from the front tire and chain the other tires together in a...

    JD M Series and E Series

    Thanks for the info. I found a 95M down the road with 2300 hours that was a trade in. Any particular issues I should look for when I test drive it? From the pictures it looks to be in pretty shape.
