    Which types of grease?

    Hedgehog, Thank you so much for "The Grease Document"! I'm kind of autistic about topics like this that involve a lot of detail. I currently have two grease guns, one with Lucas Red “N” Tacky and the other with Kubota Moly-Lithium. I learn something every time I visit here.

    New to tractors question.

    Maybe wasp spray? Not a tool, as such, I know. But I just got stung by one today on the middle finger when I was out there. I have kind of a ridiculous scream.

    Installing a GPS tracking device

    The Apple Watch is even fruitier. I told a friend who is a Navy guy, back in 2015, "You got one of those new Apple Watches. I thought those were gay". He said, "What do you mean they're gay?!"

    Installing a GPS tracking device

    My daughter and son-in-law gave us two of those for Christmas. They had in mind that the Apple tags would be installed in the cars, I think. But, yes, there's no reason one could not be placed in a tractor.

    Installing a GPS tracking device

    Thanks for the replies. Yes, you are right about the SIM card being essentially the hardware behind a cell phone subscription. I don't know what I was thinking. Maybe I was thinking about SD cards like the ones you'd put in a camera; those are just flash memory. I asked Grok about this. Here is...

    Installing a GPS tracking device

    In my county, there have been a few equipment and tool thefts in the past year. I am considering installing a GPS tracking device. Some of the ones I see on Amazon plug into an OBDII port, like the ones we put on the Linemen's trucks at work. An L2501 doesn't have an OBDII or other diagnostic...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    I created a berm for shooting with sand. Mowed a little.

    what do you weekend warriors use for tractor insurance?

    I have Texas Farm Bureau and had to schedule the tractor and loader, box blade, and cutter with serial numbers and my desired amount of coverage for each. It's $247/year with $250 deductible per scheduled item, per claim.

    Stolen BT601 Backhoe

    Hello eserv, That is a hell of a note and I hope the thieves get put in leg irons sunk into the concrete floor of a 5'x10' cell...naked. Douche them down once a day with a fire hose. Play random blasts of Norwegian death metal at 170 dB. A thought...aside from the "permanent" sticker affixed...
