I had a good day. I got my axle seal done today and a 400 hour service done on my tractor. I made a wooden jig to support the weight of the axle housing and it work perfectly. I knew I wasn't going to be able to support the weight and align the case without some help. I used a furniture dolly to...

My ramps have a support built in so the trailer can't raise the rear of the truck. I still always put my truck in 4 wheel drive prior to loading or unloading.

LOL thanks for the advice Old Hokie and Wolfman.

I have the tools, proper floor space, and I think i have the skills. I don't know the proper torque for the bolts holding the axle assemble and the nut,#100. The bearing #90, how far do you seat that against #100? I'm assuming flush against it.I have the time. I have a 2 post car lift, if the...

Yes, tires are filled and I've had one off before. I was concerned about the cab. It looks like i would have to support that rear corner above the axle. Would all the hydraulic fluid have to be drained? It's close to the 800 hour change.

Has anyone changed this seal on a L4060? Is this something most people can do or is this something to take to a dealer? Right side if it matters. Tractor has 750 hours and just made last payment in January.

The bolts are both 3/8 at the bottom, but were the blade sits, one is 7/16 and the new one is 1/2'". I think the new bolt is wrong for the blade.

Messick does a pretty good comparison on some cheaper filters.

Give Ferris a look. Their suspension is like day and night compared to any other mower. It has shocks on all 4 corners and a suspension seat too. I was going to buy a Kubota. I'm so glad I stayed with the Ferris.

Mines has an 80 in it. The cover also has 80 on it.

Is antifreeze any better than washer fluid, as far as rusting the rim?

How were you able to put the antifreeze in the tire?

I pull mine off to sharpen, but having the decks folded up , makes the job so easy. I have a few sets of blades and simply swap the dull blade with a sharp one. I can sharpen old blade at my leisure.

It's a AMF4211. I didn't think I had enough tractor for the 14'. I cut about 28 acres with it. I save a lot of time and fuel. My 6' finishing mower would take all day and part of another. The blades are easy to sharpen, but 6 are left handed. You are stuck buying blades from the dealer. The 3...

I had my big lawnmower out yesterday. I'm hoping this will be my last cutting this year.
