WHX?? 49,145 #1 Posted August 9, 2020 First off I can truly say this farm is the picture perfect image of the American Farmer. Just beautiful lands and fertile soil. @PeacemakerJack gave me the quick lowdown and will comment more. This is a farm days where Jack's uncles have been doing this for a few years now. Dan @Achto and I have never been able to make it due to conflicts with other shows but from here on this may have to trump the camping at shows! They got just a bit of everything... I'll let the pics do tje talking. 7 10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WHX?? 49,145 #3 Posted August 9, 2020 (edited) The plowing was different than at my ranch. I have sandy loam but this was a hard pack clayish soil. I was hauling the mail till my lift cable broke .. what say ye Tom @Shynon It was the orginal '67 so it was due. No worry new one on the shelf and I know a guy. Traction sometimes an issue but dealt with it. A pic of Josh TRYING to haul the mail! Cub rims with the wrong offset... really?

WHX?? 49,145 #7 Posted August 9, 2020 Must be referringto the neighbors Skunk. . Well at shows you can pick yer nose pick yer seat but ya can't pick yer neighbors . That said even tho JD' are like rears .... everyone's got them and most of them stink.... this one hauled the mail too. Pretty much off the shelf 318 but well shoed and weighted. The thing that impressed me was the home built double. Sure would liked to tie that up to Dan's Radfherd. 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
squonk 41,309 #8 Posted August 10, 2020 Change some of the geometry here and your cable won't break. You DID TAKE GEOMETRY right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dan's pulled pork, guys sleeping in my shop, mandatory drivers meetings & oil checks, the seat time on a bro's rig.... Stop me if I ramble but I'm sure I missed a few. 1 1 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
