    620 LP

    Using hydraulic hose for propane use is a no,/,no the reason why is propane will degrade the rubber in the hose.and how I know this is through the use of a propane cutting torch.

    Tools for working on tractors sitting awhile…

    Don't know if it was mentioned but a good air compressor preferably a gas powered one we go pick up cars sometimes and try to at least have two to three portable air tanks filled with air.also a good winch or ratchet chain hoist.with even a little air in the tires they will roll easier.
