    7.3, 6.0, 6.4 Diesel Fuel Tank Vents

    Has anyone had the fuel tank vent update done per TSB 7-24-4 If you have been getting water in your tank and couldn't figure out where it was coming from, good chance it was coming from here.

    unclogging zerk/grease fittings

    If it has not been greased in a long time there is a good chance that the grease canal that the grease goes through after the zerk is filled with dirt and old grease that eventually becomes rock hard or at least solid enough as to not allow grease to go through. The only way to fix it would be...

    Anyone got a 6.4 Ford

    I have an 08 with 195k. Not great on mileage but a strong pulling truck. I like it for the most part when it is not in the shop. Replaced oil cooler, accelerator pedal, pulled the cab off once for exhaust manifolds and twice for fuel pump. Every time they pull the cab it is a little over...

    Drill vs seeder

    Like the Brillion seeders, just wish they had option for larger seed boxes. Landpride is same type of seeder with option for much larger seed box. Bear

    Drill vs seeder

    Landpride makes a 10 ft. drop seeder with packer wheels front and back. How does that type seeder compare with a drill? Bear

    new trailer... what do you think?

    Not sure 6000# axles are enough. Check on 7000#. If you get 8 round bales on, you will be over loaded. How much does the trailer weigh empty? Bear

    Laying water line with subsoiler?

    Vibratory plows will pull easier with less horsepower than non-vibratory shanks. A vibratory plow for a 42" depth will require 75-130 horsepower. Not sure where you are located and what depth you are trying to achieve. Pipe size will also be a factor. Bear

    Laying water line with subsoiler?

    Takes a lot of horsepower to plow very deep. Some plows pull the pipe as you plow, some lay the pipe as you plow. 200psi high density polyethylene (HDPE) is a good choice for plowing. Bear

    good brand of discs

    Krause, Sunflower, Landpride, Tufline, Case IH all make decent disks. The size disk you are looking for is very popular. Sometimes hard to find a good one for the money. Bear

    trash pump

    Wacker makes a pretty good pump. I like the Honda motors. They usually start first pull. Pumps with the plastic pump housings never have held up that well for me. A 2 inch pump with a 3.5-5.0 hp motor will fill your tank in a hurry. Bear

    BOBCAT SKIDLOADER

    My rubber track skid steers get around pretty good but if you are working in the same area very much and the ground is damp or wet you tear up the ground pretty bad. You end up working in a big wallow pit. A lot easier trying to load trailers looking down from a cab or open station tractor than...

    Power Reverser problem

    Could be moisture in a switch or solenoid. I would look over all wire harnesses real close for a bare wire rubbing and creating a short. I had a 5520 that did something similar. The wiring harness under the cab platform had a wire that rubbed through. Bear

    I didn't know America was spelled J A P A N

    It is becoming harder and harder to supply American made product on the government jobs we do. It is very disheartening to find out that some of the materials that we need are no longer made in America. Bear

    Toy Shopping

    I had a 555G John Deere to clear some lake property. It was already in good shape. I put some extra lights on it and rear hydraulics to pull an offset disk and operate a ripper. It sat for about a year so I sold it. I bought this farm a couple of years ago and would love to have it back. Been...

    Toy Shopping

    They are fun! Until you start buying parts for them. Looks like a good find though. What weight and horsepower is it? Bear

    Grease Guns

    I have used air style grease guns from the auto parts stores and they work pretty good. I have started using heavy duty grease gun tips on the pump style guns and have stopped using the air grease guns. The heavy duty tips are larger and grip the zerk better than the standard or smaller tips...

    Water Troughs

    Some of the better gutter and downspout sealers work pretty good also. Bear
