    A bridge to somewhere

    I dont do FB, that 3rd pic down has some squirrelly grain to it. When the tire bands on the band wheels get worn they start getting spongy then the blade keeps coming off, makes it hard on plastic. Norwood told me last fall that the MX34 is now becoming obsolete and the plastic cant be replaced...

    A bridge to somewhere

    I used old motor oil, this summer I might try Copper Coat to see if that will make wood last longer. I'm hoping to get 10 years out of the bridge and 20 years out of me.... https://www.homedepot.com/p/Wolman-5-Gal-CopperCoat-Green-Below-Ground-Wood-Preservative-1902A/204746309

    L3400

    I bought a brand new Kubota 3400 DT with loader in (07). The first tractor I ever had, and I had a choice between Kubota or New Holland, only because at the time I was working a fair amount of Saturdays, and the John Deere place closes at noon, the Kubota dealer closes at 5:00 pm, time for me...

    Custom Stick Stoppers

    Thanks for the pictures Peanut, I agree the orange one looks stronger, and $50.00 is a bitt much for me right now, but if you want to make me one for low cost of $19.95, and since you was gonna take a vacation in Maine anyways, you can drop it off at my house, and save me the sipping and...

    "also one thing is a must do for the rhino and that is to add a second brace to the rear differential because they have been known to break the mounts when stressed out from heavy hauling or huge tires" Re-reading some of these post, while I got a min., been busy rebuilding my garage, and I...

    Custom Stick Stoppers

    "2 gallon sprayer", not a bad idea, I have one. But I've notice the older I get, the less mud I go through. I used to go through water and mud up to the handle bars or air intake, once over the air intake, that really took the fun out of four wheeling. So at least for 1 year, I'll keep it out of...

    Custom Stick Stoppers

    Well... I think that's enough suspense and anxiety. After a fare amount of research into a half dozen brands, checking out the specs. I narrowed it down to ether Kubota RTV 500, or Yamaha Rhino, both of them was under 60" wide, witch was a must, measuring around 55"-56" wide, all other brands I...

    Custom Stick Stoppers

    Somewhere in here, I think someone suggested I look into getting a side by side to replace my ATV, and the more I look into it, the more interested I got. Then I said, I was going to pick up a side by side next month, well..... next month came quicker than expected. I decided to sneak out of the...

    Custom Stick Stoppers

    yeah all ATVs and RTVs boots are an issue........ I am now a Kubota 1100 owner and love it I guess there's no real good cure for preventing axle boots from ripping. Are the axle boots on the RTV 1100 better protected? My ATV got burnt up last March, now I'm thinking about buying RTV 500 or...

    Help I broke my tractor in half!!!

    Turning radius might have something to do with small front tires on compact tractors, but if that's the case, ATVs turn pretty good. As for what I need, I'd sacrifice tight turns for more traction, but if I was using a small tractor for mowing lawns all the time, I'd rather have a tight turning...

    Custom Stick Stoppers

    That's the biggest problem I have with ATVs&RTVs, they have expensive axle boots to fix, all it takes is one little stick, and it wont take long if you go in the woods, you ether have to spend time cutting and picking up brush, or make stick stoppers, or stay on the hay field. I had a couple...

    Help I broke my tractor in half!!!

    Thanks for the welcome! I'm not sure if RTV will work for me, but might be worth a look. Problem is, I haul my cut&split firewood in my basement and my cellar door is only 5' wide. My tandem wheel trailer is 46" wide and my ATV I used to have [before it burnt up, another story] was 50" wide, 8...

    Help I broke my tractor in half!!!

    I never even heard of the Antonio Carraro tractor until last month. I went on YouTube looking for 20-25 hp. small tractor, I happen to see the AC Tigre 3200 with big wheels on front and thought that would really work good hauling my small firewood trailer. So I been looking in to buying one of...
