    Utility trailers

    I've got two. 5x10, single 3500lb axle, no brakes, wood floor, tilt ramp. Removable sides & fenders. Use for mulch, firewood, mower. PJ brand and well made. Guessing around 800 lbs empty. A base model 4 cylinder manual Tacoma pulls it just fine, just mind your P's & Q's when stopping...

    LA525 Loader Hose Question

    It appears to be leaking where attached to the arm. First thing I'd do is check that fittings are tight.

    Im proud

    He fly a whirlybird? A tip of the hat and rise of a pint for his service. May God continue to watch over him and bless his family for support they provide. When dad made WO4 he stayed about 2 more years, making 22.5 years total. Right around time he retired there was talk of adding WO5 to...

    G6200 plate coupling H6600-81350

    Had to buy one about a dozen years ago, think it was about $60 then. Next time I'll probably make one from some type of FRP material. Thought about aluminum, but have doubts of it holding up to the vibrations. Metal of any type might cause more damage if it fails. Thick chunk of rubber...

    Have you ever

    A few years ago was out riding in my SXS and stopped, shut it off to do something. Mid morning. Just quite. Then I felt something reverberate thru me, just the slightest vibration. It was constant. Continued that way for 3 or 4 minutes, then I could hear it....whump...whump...whump....and...

    BX2350, deal or no deal?

    Offer $2k...stop at $2500. If it's a gonner, you can part it out and at least break even.

    L3301 Oil Gauge (dip stick)

    Yes, it is poorly thought out item. One of my two biggest gripes on an otherwise nice machine. The other is having to raise the loader to remove filter screen.

    B7001e Front Tyres

    Well, it wasn't spelled wrong. Just relative to your location in the pond! Now, as to which side of the road you drive on....ehh, that might be debatable!

    213/2000 drill

    Yeah, trying to find correct tap at multiple stores can be frustrating. One of my best tool purchases ( at a pawn shop) was a large Craftsman tap & die set. 70+ pieces, was brand new, and paid $50 for it 20+ years ago. STD 4/40 to 1/2" and Metric 1mm to 12mm, plus a couple small pipe sizes...

    Oh Deer

    When they are already moving by the time you see them is one thing. But if they are standing on the shoulder, you have time to slow.....and sometimes they will bolt at the last second. Maybe toward you or in opposite direction, it's a coin toss.

    Oh Deer

    You were lucky. Seen some animal strikes that totaled vehicles and caused bodily injury. I only brake. Never swerve when wet. No evasive maneuvers if on coming traffic. In 31 years of marriage, wife and I have 7 deer strikes between us. Only turned 2 into insurance. One was in a rental I...

    R2 Manufacturing skids

    Sometime before Thanksgiving I ordered a set of Edge Tammers for the bucket from guys at R2. I mentioned to Ryan it would be cool if they came up with a similar product for a grader blade. Imagine my surprise a few weeks later their announcement for the Blade Tammer. Not sure how long they had...
