WHX?? 48,814 #1926 Posted May 31, 2020 After Dan pulled the cores we had a 1/2" ... this trailer has got a trim cover around the torsion spring Ritchie that is what screwed us. Taking that off would have gained us another 1 1/2". I had it off several times to straighten out cables. Should just leave it off but how many times do we wrangle with a cab?? 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
19richie66 17,500 #1927 Posted May 31, 2020 Yeah I have no cover over my barrel/spring assembly. I would bust my gourd on it every time I went in if I did. I have enough room to walk in straight up but I duck anyways. I hit my head on enough stuff as it is. 1 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rjg854 11,360 #1932 Posted June 7, 2020 Thanks to @Mike'sHorseBarn tractor runs and drives nice, a few things that need a little TLC, but that's the fun of buying another tractor, something to tinker with. Deck came from WheelHorsePlethora, the same guy that's putting on the swap meet at the same dates the Show would have been. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'll be checking it out a little closer today. All in all a fine tractor. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

echris 1,425 #1938 Posted June 16, 2020 "What's in your mirror?" Stick with me for a minute here. Back in the day, my Father-in-law and I would build/repair decks and docks and boats and whatever at his Massachusetts lakehouse. EVERY SINGLE TIME we would tow the boat down the road to the launch, he would say, "Somebody's following us. And they're really close!" LMAO In the later years, the rear end collision warning system on his newer Suburban told us so. I miss those days. 1 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

She and the kids will have fun finding things that NEED to be dug up and moved. Doubt that you will ever get a chance to use the loader yourself. 1 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PeacemakerJack 10,738 #1946 Posted June 20, 2020 One of the nice things with the loader is, if she will let me teach her, Kelli will be able to move a variety of things by herself that she otherwise couldn’t or wouldn’t. I love the fact that it is for her tractor and so she is already comfortable with that machine. It is all about learning the controls for the Bucket. As much as I like new toys, if the kids and wife can safely and comfortably use a machine like that to accomplish yard projects—I’ll let them have all the seat time they want 5 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
