    Replace BH92 with mini-ex?

    Appreciate all the feedback. I’m not necessarily opposed to keeping the BH92, I only mentioned the trade-in because my dealer mentioned he might be interested in it. Of course at the time, he didn’t mention anything about what $$$ he might give me for it.

    Replace BH92 with mini-ex?

    I’m sure these aree famous last words…but I’m not sure I’d ever have to move the machine once it was on my property, except for maybe to go back to dealer for service. Of course, as soon as friends found out…

    Replace BH92 with mini-ex?

    The KX033-4 seems to be perfect for my property. I don’t think I need a U-series because it’s relatively open space, well, besides some of the trees I have to take down.

    Replace BH92 with mini-ex?

    I have a lot of trenching, leveling, tree stump removal on the property to do. In addition , at some point I’m going to need to do some foundation work for a new shop…I mean agricultural building. Where I live, if you say you want to build a shop or garage, the zoning people get all crazy on...

    5-11 Grill Guard

    Further update on my injury. Turns out I wound up pinching a nerve root in my neck. The most severe pain I kept experiencing wasn’t in my arm (though I definitely did some muscle/tendon bruising there) but in my left shoulder blade and the Celebrex was of no help. The pain was so bad that at one...

    3-pt York rake size/weight for L6060

    Thanks Tussell King. You are definitely not being Captain Obvious and I truly appreciate all the knowledge sharing by the members here (and that you don’t make fun of newbies for asking basic questions). I do have a lever in the cab that I believe is for that rear remote. And there is another...

    thanks. I’ll rotate that today and post a picture to make sure I got it right.

    Are you referring to what I have circled below? Did I put this together wrong?

    5-11 Grill Guard

    Thanks for the feedback and the advice on heat/ice. It’s weird how the pain sort of comes and goes. I’m also doing these nerve gliding exercises that are supposed to help. I’m definitely going to look into either a drill with a handle (or if that is an option I can add to that drill). I was so...

    5-11 Grill Guard

    Just a follow-up to my brush gaurd install. You have to drill a couple of 3/8 holes in the factory front gaurd (which is probably 3/8 steel). Following the directions, I drilled the 1/8 pilot holes and then used a new 3/8 bit. I was using a Makita hand held battery drill. Just as the 3/8 bit...

    3-pt York rake size/weight for L6060

    I have hydraulics for my backhoe but I don’t know if that counts as a rear remote. Here is what the back of the tractor looks like:

    3-pt York rake size/weight for L6060

    Thanks for sharing. I only have a single rear remote on my L6060 and am just ordering the top link now. If I went with something like that Land Pride model, with the hydraulic side-to-side, I am assuming I would need another rear remote. If that is the case, do I have to get that from the dealer?

    3-pt York rake size/weight for L6060

    I have several acres that have a number of trees (black walnut) and every spring there are always a number of branches that came down over the winter. I was thinking that I could use a York rake to kind of pull all of these together, and then use my grapple to load them into a dump trailer. Is...

    3-pt York rake size/weight for L6060

    Thanks for all the feedback. I would be using the rake more clearing land, cleaning up debris from all the trees, and eventually spreading topsoil. I just got my driveway paved last month, so no need for driveway grading/spreading.

    3-pt York rake size/weight for L6060

    I am considering picking up a 3-pt York rake for my L6060. Any recommendations on size/weight/brands? I’m about to order a hydraulic top link so I don’t think I need one with hydraulics, but it seems like gauge wheels are a popular option. Also, my friend has a B2601. Is it possible to...
