    Extra battery terminals

    I bought and installed a pair of the knuconceptz battery lugs on the M5660 when I ran power for auxiliary work lights and a pair of cigret lighter sockets. Exceptionally well-made products.

    He wouldn't fit on a Kubota

    Haha! I just finished reading my grandmother's daily diaries from 1914 to 1951.

    1952 Massey Harris Pony - Value Question

    A thorough power washing will add a lot of value, if for no other reason than it makes the tractor look like less of a piece of junk.

    Might try grooving the tires.

    Patch hydraulic hose? Or replace?

    Replace and put some Outback Hose Wrap on it for protection.

    Found off-road diesel

    Locking fuel cap might thwart the dippers who are essentially carrying out a search without a warrant.

    Adding a hydraulic top link..........?

    You might want to match the center to center distance between the pin holes on the threaded top link when fully extended and retracted.

    Air compressor expansion

    If you bury it, condensation WILL form in there and have no way to get out completely. Basically you will have created a thermal mass dryer. You could slope it to one end, put a tee at that point and run a blowdown line up on the wall somewhere. We did this intentionally on a 100hp air...

    PTO drive for a Miller Bobcat welder?

    There should be a mark on the tachometer which reads 540 PTO or something similar. Run the engine there and do the math mechanically to increase the speed up to 3600 rpm. Gearbox, different size pulleys are two common methods to change speeds.

    Fake Kubotas

    You've never looked at Craigslist or FB marketplace, lol. I swear those yahoos can't spell anything right.

    Fuel Storage (small containers)

    Stanadyne in the silver bottle. 50ml per 6 gallons of fuel. I add the product to the empty can and the turbulence of the fill mixes it for me. Add fuel to tractor as necessary. No worries.

    Dryer Repair

    Not only do most people not own a VOM, but they wouldn't know how to use it if they did.

    Ideas/Advice stray dogs

    My logic says that if you love your dog, then you would make sure they are safe at all times. If you opt for the pew pew, make it count the first time.

    King Kutter finish mower bearings

    Typically, manufacturers don't install parts like that unless they are necessary. Check McMaster Carr or Amazon. I would normally suggest your local power transmission supply house, but they don't stock parts anymore. "We show 25 in our Indianapolis warehouse, we can have it by next Thursday. "
