Re: Loader Mutt Continues...
The finished axle looks amazing. It looks like something for a big Minneapolis Moline...not a little cub cadet. Lol. Enjoy your write ups!

Re: And I came home with two dollars
Nice save ken! I can't believe I never thought of that trailer hitch combo....that is great!
As for the "light oil"...you better clarify cause big Mike will be under his hood looking for the light oil dipstick when his turn signal lever gets sticky.

Re: 550 lb Capacity Hydraulic Tractor Lift
That's sounds pretty neat. Some pictures of the unit would be nice. Those kinds of things can be great for cleaning and maintenance but when you start talking about the mower deck maintenance sometimes they can get in the way if it has a big platform. Deck cleaning is best when you pick up from one ...

Oh...I almost forgot. My first big tractor I ever drove was a cub 154 or 185?. And....my first pickup was a 1980 f150... with the"ranger" trim package. I think I bought that in 87 for $2700. Fixed that up till it was perfect then sold it for an 86 f250 diesel. Yeah they called me diesel Dave for a f...

I guess someone high up really wanted to go all different directions with the company. From implements and tractors.... heavy equipment...then guns and refrigerator...cars and lawnmowers. When you say it like that ..no wonder they fell.
