Any of you fellow OTT folks had the dreaded valve body/solenoid failure on your 10 speed transmissions? I was heading back from a week of vacation with family and dog with a truck full of gear and about 2hrs from home in a very busy place, the trannny went to hell and into limp mode. I finally...

For those of you that have any kind of trailer with tandem axles this has to be the easiest way to change a tire I have ever used. I bought this and have had it stored in the back for years and never needed it. Well I discovered that one of the tires on my boat trailer had a failed plug and...

I realize that there are quite a few of us OTT folks that are in our 6th decade and beyond. That said, I am looking to hear what some of you may have already experienced. In the last several months I have been dealing with lower back pain and sciatica. The back pain has been tolerable and not...

Well I had purchased the supplies a few weeks ago while shopping for a set of pallet forks and a tiller at my local Kubota dealer. I purchased the tractor this summer used with about 340 hours and it has been absolutely perfect for my needs maintaining the ole homeplace. I am just under the...
