    Trouble Hooking a SkidSteer Quick Hitch

    Yep as WI Dan said - curl it forward - get the upper lip under your implement, raise it, then roll it back. One thing to watch out for - we had a fork attachment that had a lot of left-right freedom in the plate, but not in the pin holes at the bottom. That was a pain until we modified it (we...

    Farmall H “Special “

    Maybe the special part is the smile it put on that kid in the seat!

    Need Workshop Ideas! Taking down Storage Shed and Building Bigger!

    My $.02 - Go as big as your budget and real estate allows. You'll never regret going too big. - Draw a scale floor plan with the realistic size of each piece of equipment in CAD or on graph paper. Make sure all of the tools / benches / equipment fits in a logical manner. - 6' apron on the...

    Steel Wheels & Concrete Floors

    1/2 of our barn is concrete, other half is crushed asphalt that has been compacted. The crushed/compacted asphalt has worked very well for us with steel wheel tractors. In an all concrete floor - we used 2' wide x 8' long strips of whatever discounted plywood / paneling we could get. Weighed...

    Problems with auto parts stores

    I was on the tail end of the "experienced" counter men. Some were exceptional - some were moody - some were arrogant (kind of like all walks of life). With the advent of online parts look up tools - I've taken the exceptional / moody / arrogant factor pretty much out of the equation. It's...

    Need source for 50-75 AMP batteries

    I think you are on the right track. A quick browse on Menards page shows a 130CCA motorcycle style battery for $26. Just make up some adapters and you are right in the ballpark. The other thing you could look at is the 12V batteries that they put in power wheels and other kids 12V ride on...

    Awesome Allis

    Seems like the only Allis parts are the hood/grille and steering wheel? Here is a local lowered B that I've seen in person - very nice workmanship: https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/874476143797872/

    Rock Auto question

    Use Rock Auto a lot - very quick to compare to other web based retailers and find out who has the best prices. Never have shipped back a core to Rock Auto - in each instance throwing the core in the trash was money ahead compared to shipping it (and buying the same item from a different...

    Low Oil Pressure on 1945 B

    Echo the rest - check with a known good and accurate gauge before doing anything else.

    Oil usage

    From what I saw online - SF rating was for 1988 and earlier vehicles. SE was for 1979 and earlier. I'd interpret that to mean what you have is most like vintage 1980-1988 (31-43 years old). I have had old oil where when you pour it out - the top pours off nice and then the bottom pours...

    Came in the mail

    Doing the math: In 1953 you could buy the JD B replacement carb for $19.50. Average inflation rate since then is about 3.5% so a new one should assuming same conditions should run about $216.70 in today's money. Go on Ebay and you can buy a new JD B carb for $552.99. That comes in at...

    OT 2001 chevy brake control

    You really want to find a manual for the specific controller and set it up according to that. As others have said - these are getting a digital on/off signal from your brake lights - all of the proportion is being figured out in one manner or another inside the controller box. Sure are nice to...
