Not sure what’s going on with my right front. All bolts are tight, when I lift it, I can’t wiggle anything and nothing appears loose.
About 220 hours. L2501DT.
EDIT: I'm an idiot. Low tire pressure ...
So, I have a free tractor for anyone qualified to operate a tractor. Because I am not.
Thanks, Reddit!
I have been lucky and only got one that was beyond my means and it was also my biggest one. A JD 720. Was stuck beyond normal means.
I hesitate to buy non running diesels because I am always worried about injection pumps blowing my budget totally out of the water?
What have you hauled to the scrapyard?

Help…how do i get the belt back onto the pulley? Anything on a spring is removed giving me full motion but still not enough…
Tiller suddenly stopped tilling and when i removed covers i noticed it was off. been fighting with this belt for longer than I care to admit. This is directly underneath the motor.
Hope you are all well out there!
My Grandfather has been obsessed with farm equipment since I was a boy. I have never seen him stumped like this does anybody recognize this plow? Sorry for the poor pictures, he’s an old man lol.
Hello!
I've got a 1980s era Mt160 that I would like to put ag tires on for that extra little height and traction
My question is what rims would work for the rear's?
I've checked the manual and it doesn't state the correct tire size's
Shot in the dark theres another MT owner out there that would know.
(6 bolt 5.5in and 4in pilot hole}
I've always been in to mechanics and machinery I love old stuff my favourite tractor is a new Holland t6
Recently picked up this kioti ck20s gear for what I feel was a pretty good deal. Not a Kubota or Deere but the couple hours I have put on it so far it seems to be a solid little machine. Already put the loader to work with some heavy gravel work earlier this week but looking for suggestions on what my first implements I should look for. For context I live on alittle over 6 acres and have a fairly long gravel drive. Was considering a land plane to use for the drive and a bushhog to reclaim some of the overgrown areas. Anything else that should be considered for a compact tractor? Thanks
Took a stab at rebuilding the Roosa-Master injection pump for my 1965 John Deere 3020. Governor ring was completely destroyed. Runs like a top now!
Works great but could use a jackscrew to push the cart back and forth with the weight of an engine on it. For this run we used a 48" pry bar to move things along.
I have what I'm learning is a Frankenstein. Serial # says 57 800 powermaster w/ power steering. The problem is I think the power steering control valve is from another model tractor bc the parts ihave ordered from the 57 psrts book do not match. Does anyone recognize this control valve and know which model is from? I need the upper seal.
Paying for fall and spring clean up was getting very expensive so After months of research ,bought this for leaves clean up and also plan to use it for snow removal. First time garden tractor user. Will post on results soon. Any advice will be appreciated.
Hey all, I've been trying to find some specific information on techniques and limitations of clearing snow on a steep gravel driveway with an inverted snowblower. I've found some good threads here, but none that answer these specific questions so thanks for any help you can provide!
We live in Vermont and get about 70" of snow a year, can be up to a foot of heavy snow to clear at times. Our driveway is 1/4 mile, averages 16% slope, gravel, and we try to maintain a decent crown/drainage.
We are looking at purchasing a tractor to be able to clear the driveway ourselves as well as other tasks on our 11 acres such as brush hogging/etc... Specifically the Kubota L3302 and 3902 stand out as good options with enough power to drive the inverted snowblower.
Does anyone have experience with an inverted snowblower on a steep gravel driveway?
Are you able to clear going up and down, or do you clear going down only then drive back up to make another pass?
With ballast, chains, and 4wd, do you ever have issues maintaining traction?
How do you approach clearing the driveway to maintain the crown?
Are there other tractor models we should be considering?
I bought this today at an estate sale. The man of the house collected tractors and related stuff. This was in his garage. It's about 4 1/8" tall.
I'm hoping someone can tell me what decade (or year) it comes from.
I can't find another one online to compare it to. On the back there is tiny lettering stamped into the sides where the metal is stamped into a curve. One stamp says, Utica, NY. And another one looks like 1035S, but the "S" is partially stamped and all of the stamps are very tiny.
Can anyone tell me its approximate age? The whole piece is relatively flat, doesn't curve at the top.
I also bought this "Killefer" emblem. I don't know anything about where it came from, but It looks neat.
Anyone have some experience? Are they reliable,
easy to repair ?
Was running great the other day. I left it sitting for about three days now this is the best I can get. (I did drain the carburetor before I left.) i’m learning on this as I go so any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Especially when the internet told you something wrong!

She stuttered and spat and fired right up. Now the only big mechanical thing is the rear pto seal.
Then cosmetics!
I have a 2002 TC 40 and I have always had trouble starting it. It will click click like 10 15 times before it will start. Sometimes it starts right up but other times it acts up. I changed the starter on it and it seemed to work good for a few months and now it’s doing it again battery is always on a trickle charge.
I live in rural Ohio, and I posted a prettier one a while back. I recently learned of another one about 5 miles from the first. Thought I would share. 3 images for this one because I could get closer. I have no idea what anything was.
Whoever owns this place has some beautiful restored vehicles and a whole bunch of projects, and "probably not" projects. You can see one of the "probably nots" behind the tow truck in the third photo.
