My friends who who are into photography don't appreciate people who compliment then on a picture and then give all the credit to the camera.

Files must be huge. 2 mins and it's still only 1/2" loaded of 1.

My sister does about 4 acres of Lavender and has a whole weekend thing for everything Lavender. She makes big bucks on this weekend, they have a mobile butcher at the same time selling sides and taking orders. My wife goes down with her mother, it’s like a personal Farmers market and she spends some money. Add fresh Lavender to some homemade honey and sell a pint for 60 bucks, I am somewhat jealous.

Steer me not

I pillaged the old tie rod from my F550 to get me by temporarily: The taper was a little too big so I had to turn it down The steel was quite hard

materthegreater said: Interesting that these old Wix filters have the Dana logo on the box: View attachment 316505 I resealed the berm leveler cylinder since it would leave a puddle wherever I parked the machine. The rod is a bit banged up so I filed off the high spots and called it good enough. View attachment 316506 I'm not too familiar with these Perkins engines- does anyone know what this thing is? It appears to have one line connected to the cooling system and the other to the engine oil system. View attachment 316507 Click to expand... Looks like an oil cooler

Crux said: I have same machine, same engine. One thing to check is the shaft from front of engine harmonic balance to hydraulic pump and air compressor. Found splines severely worn. Steiner tractor has shaft and hub. View attachment 321903 Click to expand... Do you habe a part number for those parts? I can't find one the same size as the one on my machine.

This came up as an interesting possibility (except it sold already). I wonder how it would compare to the Huber. (Range of motion, etc)

That's how I make my bread and butter. The one im on now i have almost 4000 hours on. The older on has almost 6 that probably put almost 5. Next older probably same. They have their quirks, I use mine like a d8 sometimes. Best of all for you they are made in the US of A so no Tarrifs

It will load a tandem truck, moldboard angles, rolls ahead side shift. Never had a psi but it's pretty much a mauldin. Puckett is another brand. As well as Alitec

I thought it looked similar to the ones you run. It doesn't look like the moldboard angles any farther than my Huber. That's one of the main complaints I have with it. The loader on this sure would be useful. I wonder if the hydraulics flow enough to run my roller. How does it drive, gearshift or hydrostatic?

Each wheel has a hydraulic motor . High and low range push top of pedal to go forward and bottom to reverse. New machine is a potentiometer older ones cable, some have a linkage. Ours had auxiliary hydraulic front and rear. Bobcat attach front and rear
