    Will an L3560 w/ BH77 fit in my garage without drama?

    Get the tractor you need and modify your garage door. No drama, just money to alter the door.

    Does it matter what brand box scraper/box blade I get for my BX23S?

    Very True. For leveling... The land plane is great for driveways. Long, straight, linear. A box scraper is good, for situations where you can drag it from 360 degrees over the area. You normally can't do that with a driveway. But a box scraper IS more useful overall. 2 or 3 posts in...

    Does it matter what brand box scraper/box blade I get for my BX23S?

    Quick hitches are for lazy farmers. I'd say... Buy an off-brand QH from the same place that you are getting the box scraper from. If you really want a QH. Cheaper than Land Pride.

    Hagrid, the #1 OTT Jokester. He's just messing with you. But you probably figured that out.

    Does it matter what brand box scraper/box blade I get for my BX23S?

    I would cancel the order for the Land Pride First, if you ordered it and / or paid for it. As far as box scrapers go: With your BX23S I don't think you could go wrong with any brand. They are about as complicated as a box of rocks. They are a box for rocks. Does anyone remember that story...

    2002 Ford E350 hood stuck closed - HELP!

    On my wife's Dodge, about twice a year I pull the lever to release the parking brake and the hood goes "boing" and pops up a few inches. I calmly get out of the car and act like I am looking at something under the hood if people are around. My excuse; It's not my daily driver. That. And I miss...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Thank you. I hope that you are right. I think I saw the spring retainer still on the rod It looks as though the boot is not torn. I am going to look deeper into it today. May be a quick fix. I don't know. It looks like I need to remove the armor shroud to get to it. After a long day...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Found this today after moving dirt to backfill an erosion spot by the driveway... This failure is unacceptable IMO. Steering tie rod boot. 3 year old LX2610 that I am guessing is out of warranty. Might try the inner tube fix that I found here on OTT.

    2023 LX3310 3 point hitch operating range.

    My LX2610 has a similar issue. (Same tractor but you have the bigger engine or bigger carburation). My 3 point didn't start lifting until about indicated 4 and then makes a whining sound at level 8. So I Lift it to level 8 and then move it towards level 7 to until the whining sound stops. I...

    B7100 random knowledge.

    Thank you for sharing. Nice work. I hate to break out the bad news.... Today, it is called quick attach. The B7100 era didn't have it. I know, I lived it, the B7100, in the 70's and 80's. Skid steer (Bobcat) equipment made it famous and it is available everywhere now. I literally swapped...

    Sponge Air Filter for Log Splitter

    Well the sponge didn't show any negative issues with oil saturation. I found mouse poop and urine stains in the airbox and carb, as well as some acorn shells. Ugh!!! I pulled and cleaned up the airbox and the carb, as mice had crawled into both. It didn't appear that they got past the choke...

    Sponge Air Filter for Log Splitter

    Oh, it's a 338cc Champion engine, air cooled, 37 ton log splitter. A honda engine copy, I think.

    Sponge Air Filter for Log Splitter

    So, mice got into my log splitter's air cleaner this past winter and destroyed the foam air filter element. It is a flat 6"x 4" foam air filter element that you oil. Can I use a standard cleaning sponge saturated with oil as a temporary fix? My local small engine repair/ parts store doesn't...

    Offsetting rear blade ... should I grease it?

    I would grease it. Let the dust it collects sand it down a bit for smoother operation later. It's not a engine cylinder or surgical device. Dry film spray is just another can of stuff that you have to buy and won't be able to find later in your shop. Keep it simple. Use grease. And you...

    New L3560 cab leaking.

    On your new-to-you tractor... I would guess that... They hosed it out like @Bee-Positive said or left the door open in the rain. Maybe the glass of the door or the whole door was broken for a period of time and they replaced it to sell it. .. after rainy days or months. In my experience...
