    I love people like this that get online and talk big but face to face are spineless cowards. Jerk.

    Trailer Decking Question

    You know I came here to ask a simple question about the strength of two vs 1 board. I did come here for a butt like you to try and make me look stupid because I can guarantee you that I am not. So take your obnoxious opinions and stick them where the sun don't shine. I'm done with this place.

    $1000 difference is more than a couple of bucks.

    Trailer Decking Question

    I agree, and if money were no object we wouldn't be having this discussion. But, my economy IS NOT doing great in spite of what the news media keeps telling us. So, if I can save several hundred dollars, be safe, and have a deck that will last 10 years with some care then that's where I need...

    Trailer Decking Question

    I've looked. That's all I have been able to find within a reasonable distance. If I could find white oak for $1 a foot I would do that in a heartbeat. Sawmills that have been in business all my life are now shutdown. I guess because the economy is doing so great😁🤣.

    Trailer Decking Question

    Is it a $900 price difference than red oak? That's what I'm looking at with prices. Red oak will cost me $90 for the wood. White oak will cost me $1050 for the wood.

    Trailer Decking Question

    Well, I've used it before but in 2 in thick boards and it lasted for 13 years. My question was not about types of wood but about the structural strength of 2 one inch boards vs one 2 inch thick board.

    Trailer Decking Question

    I agree but white is going to cost me $3.50 a board foot. I'm getting the red oak for .28 a board foot. That's $1000 vs less than a hundred

    Trailer Decking Question

    I am going to glue them to keep moisture between the layers down. The boards are 1 and an eighth thick so two layers will give me 2 and a quarter inches of oak. I figure if I have to replace it sooner than if it was thicker boards I'm getting it so cheap I can replace it 3 or 4 times for the...

    Trailer Decking Question

    Most of the cross members are right at 16. It's a deck over trailer and there is one section where they are 20 inches apart over the wheels. My tractor is not small. It's a Massey Ferguson 290 so I'm not comfortable with just one inch of oak.

    Trailer Decking Question

    I'll be using the one inch boards then and overlapping them. I'm getting these red oak boards for .28 a board foot so as long as it's going to be strong enough it's a great deal.

    Trailer Decking Question

    I've got a source for some oak boards that are at a very good price. I need to replace my equipment trailer deck. Problem is the boards are just q inch thick. Could they be doubled (use 2 boards stacked) for the deck? Would this be weaker than a solid 2 inch board?

    Massey Ferguson 290 what's this switch for?

    I haven't been able to find anything in the service or operators manuals. Looks to be definitely connected to aux hydraulics. Everything is working as it should so I guess I won't worry too much about it. Just curious. Strange that it's not in the manuals though.

    Massey Ferguson 290 what's this switch for?

    I recently acquired a 1986 290. There is a switch behind the PTO lever on the left side just above the remote hydraulic valves. The knob is missing. Anyone know what this is for?

    Massey Ferguson 290 hydraulic relief valve?

    I recently purchased a 290 yellow so I'm guessing an industrial model. Currently hydraulics are not working. I removed the filter from the bottom and it was covered in thick nasty slime. I am replacing the filter. I was also going to replace the hydraulic relief valve and took off the right...

    MF85 steering problems

    Ok, new issue. Water in the hydraulic oil. Power steering and PTO work ok for about 30 minutes then slowly stop working. My oil has water in it which I think is causing the problem. I drained all the oil and blew the lines out with air and changed the filter. Now the new oil is contaminated...

    Problem solved. It was the ps pump. Thanks JJL for a replacement pump.

    MF85 steering problems

    How much do you need for the pump? Wouldn't mind having another as mine may be toast and even if it's not it does show signs of wear.
