Check out “my tractor forum” seems like I asked some things there in past.While I’m at it, is there a site you guys may know of where I can find out some things about mods to this unit…
A.) power steering …a pipe dream I’m thinking
B.) a hydraulic tilt for the bucket…. Currently has a drop pin. A lever pulls the pin and the bucket falls
C.) improved brakes
D.) best tried and true engine oil, fluids and hydraulic oils
thats only after 9 minutes of driving it. As always, thanks
@PIP that is actually good advice but those days are gone for me. Today, if I have a fallen tree out in the woods, I can drag it back, if I need a scoop or two of R-blend in a settled area….I’ll fill it in. I have said similar things with my brother with whom I have a 36’ sport fishing boat. That sucker sits in a marina $4500.00 a season, Fuel $600-800 For 1 complete fill-up… Winter storage $1200 plus regular maintenance… one year we paid over $2000.00 a pound for a few filets. If you charter a private captain and his boat to go fishing all day… maybe $1000.00…DONE
But of course you miss out on coming up with rhythmic patterns for a few choice words all summer long, and other levels of fun. But as I said, for me, I don’t need a spade and a garden cart or a chainsaw with bad knees and a torn rotator cuff, arthritis and a bottle full of tramadol IF this will make things a touch simpler
my neighbor up the road has a new Kubota L ??(46?) and a new Kubota excavator. He’s younger and told me a dozen times to call him if I needed to get something done. Generous offer but…I really gotta do it myself. Additionally, I am a tinkerer and this my turn out as pretty as my FJ40 one day
You‘re right though…practical, however I’m beyond practical with what’s left
