    Welded Hooks

    Thanks for the input, Kubota Orange from the dealer it shall be, I will be up that way if not this weekend then the next. Also thanks for reinforcing that it was okay to weld the anchor hook to the bucket. As far as pics I was waiting until I got it painted but:

    Welded Hooks

    Received the hooks from Ken, very fast delivery and according to my neighbor the quality of the products is excellent, I trust him because I have no experience to know one way or the other. The anchor hook was impressive, even my wife thought it was cool. Got it all welded up about the same...

    B2650HSDC work lights

    Talked to my dealer and he said that it could be tucked up real good but they were always there. So I got a little more aggressive and pulled and yanked and could barely see a cable up in there by the flex. No way to get to it without taking the cowling off, no big deal 2 bolts and a screw to...

    B2650HSDC work lights

    I finally got my rear work lights, mounted them then went to put the switch in and there was no connector. I have a message in to my sales guy but have not heard back, hope he is on vacation. According to the instructions that came with the kit there are supposed to be two connectors, one for...

    B2650 Rear PTO problem

    Since you have a cab I assume you have the HSDC model and no clutch. My mower has a bit of a jar when engaged even at idle. The mower is an older model brush hog and I know the blades are not balanced, they have been sharpened/ground many times. I figured the jar at start up was normal, after it...

    Guns and toolboxes

    I was looking at those and they are a good way to go. Metal plate under the seat has enough room to put one. May get a couple the next time I order from Amazon because they would be good in a number of places and not just the tractor.

    Guns and toolboxes

    That is what I was thinking, probably the best place, secure and easy to get to. Like I said I have never used my arm rests so forgot they were even there so may as well put them to use.

    Chain the front?

    Wolf Creek Pass way up on the Great Divide? Per CW McCall, lol. Have a good friend in Del Norte.

    F250 ac

    Had a chance to spend some time running/cycling/using the system. It would engage the clutch, then it would quit, then it would engage again. This did not seem normal because it did not get cold when it was doing this. Took it out for a few miles and the clutch engaged and kept spinning and AC...

    Chain the front?

    Cool, I didn't think of that aspect but it makes sense. Thanks.

    Chain the front?

    Looks like you have turf tires so the chains probably work pretty good. Where did you get them and what did they cost? I want to try and make some just to say I did it but it never hurts to know where to get things.

    F250 ac

    You are right, I tend to screw things up trying to make them better. Probably should just make it a point to take it out more often and blow out the gunk. Most of the time it gets used in the winter pulling my 8Ns out of snow banks and busting snow drifts so hopefully I have that issue taken...

    B2601 and B2650 price check qtr 3 rebates 2017

    I was talking to the dealer while getting fluids and filters and she said that she could not keep the B2650 in stock, they went out as soon as she got one. I tend to believe her because mine was still in the box when I bought it. Earlier last year I tried a B3350 and decided I liked the size but...

    F250 ac

    The plot thickens. Now remember that I do not use this truck very much at all, it probably has been off the place and driven more than 20 minutes a time no more than a few times over the last 5 years and for a while the AC has not worked very good. Yesterday was my day of discovery where it...

    Chain the front?

    I would rarely need chains with what I do with the 4wd B2650. I was just messing around and found that my Honda Foreman chains fit the front of my tractor. These are a good quality set of truck chains with cleats and tighteners that I cut down to fit the ATV. Any reason not to use them for both...

    F250 ac

    Never had the Freon checked so that is a possibility. Looks like I have a few things to check out. Thanks for all the input.

    Hooks: Weld or Bolt?

    Definitely will go with the "spot" weld since my dog and late horse were spotted, lol. Great chart. Looks like my shipment will be here tomorrow, quick shipping so thanks Ken.

    F250 ac

    Thanks, will try and check those possibilities out. Have not noticed any leaks but will double check in the morning, too hot right now, lol. Probably needs an expert service but I hardly use it so no hurry.

    F250 ac

    I have a 1996 F250 that I use sparingly, 460 so it guzzles gas and I want to preserve it for pulling/heavy work. I thought the AC was out, it blew not so cool air, not hot but more like regular vent air. I use it around the place so it may be 5 minutes use at a time. Had to drive it about 20...

    Hooks: Weld or Bolt?

    Hope mine comes out as good, great looking job. My neighbor is very meticulous, as most welders are, so I am sure he will do a good job then it will be up to me to paint it. Thanks for the examples, good to see pictures.
