We’ve become fans of using garlic Naan.
Simple, easy one portion per.
But I’m a sucker for home made too.
I like that idea samm

Are your “lifting” chains tagged and inspected regularly by certified personnel?
Nope

Finished and loaded.
I like this little tractor, a whole lot more stable with the loaded ballast box on the back.
Here are the 2 massive lifting chains i was talking about.

Nate, you have a tractor siting there with a loader,,,,,,,,,,,, the lifting into or out of the trailer is not the hard part, as there are skid steers, old internationals with buckets/forks, and even telehandlers for the lifting. the hard part is the individual...................

Will the burb or any of the trucks you have in your fleet fit on a 20' trailer? If you can still do it, you may want to extend that trailer to 24' so you will be able to service future needs?
20 is all I need Nate
a 24 bumper pull would be all but impossible to back into anything.
Plus the added four feet just adds weight that subtracts from he load I can carry.
My D-Max is essentially the same as a 3500. and remember, I have 4.56 gears which should be about the same as 4.10's with stock tires.
I have three nice tow tunes, "E" range tires, and a good hitch, rear sway bar and 5,000 air springs. It tows well. Local guys and some on the Kubota skid steer forum say they tow those machines all day long with a 2500 duramax.
I should be fine for 50 mile or less pulls
(Pulls that will yield $1000 a day!)
Oh i have no doubt that the dmax will not break a sweat pulling it. I was just offering the recommendation of a bit longer trailer incase you had to tow one of the other trucks you own as an alternative.

« on: January 30, 2022, 01:11:49 AM »
So, i have been quiet on here for a few weeks because the F.I.L. has some very serious negative health issues and i have been putting many many miles on the dmax trying to make things easier for them.
one of those things that i was asked to do is build a replacement deck for the side door of their farm house that is stand alone. The one that is there now cannot be used because of its rotten state.
(That is the only door that a stretcher can come in and out of, the other door is body drag only)
So the last couple days i have been solidifying a plan (thanks slc) and gathering materials. The dimensions are 4' x 5' x 31" high. Everything is ground contact pressure treated, the hardware is either galvanized or this new deck type screw. It will be set on concrete blocks. Ill let it weather for 6 months or so and then put a good sealant on it. The only thing i didnt get, which i kicked myself in the butt for is the rubber sealant strip that goes on top of the frame/stringers and underneath the top decking layer.
Now the trick is getting it put into place....wish me luck....lol
I will post completion picks of both places when applicable.

So are you wanting a flatbed trailer or a dump trailer?
216
« on: January 28, 2022, 09:13:12 AM »
Looks good. What does it weigh?
Tractor supply carries the matching Kubota paint.(and other implement colors) after it cures and i put the 2 big chains in it, it should come in roughly 600lbs +. that will give me some decent counter balance for when using the FEL or the forks. yeah, i have as can of kubota orange from when i did the tool boxes, but that was the only can they had in stock. well see how the red paint holds up over the next year....and maybe it will become a winter project to scuff it, prime it and paint it to match.
217
« on: January 28, 2022, 01:01:06 AM »
For a chinese box that cost less than what it would have cost to make it locally, i guess i can live with the farmall red instead of the kubota orange.
Maybe ill get bored one day and change it to orange?

My ballast box showed up today, so i got right to work by drilling out the cat 0 pin holes and installing cat 1 pins.
After that i taped off a few open areas that would leak concrete.
I then mixed 4 bags of crete and dumped them in the box.
My 3ph is only rated at like 600lbs, and my front end loader (FEL) is rated for roughly 700lbs (i turned up the hydraulics just a tad). So with the box weighing 100lbs, and 4 bags of crete (once cured) for 360lbs and 2 massive 3/4" grade 100 lifting chains (used for lifting abrams tanks....dont ask) that weigh roughtly 100lbs a piece, i think i should have enough ballast to do things around here.

I was needing or wanting some sort of a small tool box for my little machine.
I have seen several different options on several different forums, and this is what i came up with to fulfill my needs.
I took
- 2 ammo cans
- 2 ea 1 1/4" square tubing
- 2 ea 6" x 10" x 1/8th" steel plate
- trimmed all of the pieces i needed, painted them kubota orange and kubota grey to match oe paint
- and bolted it all together.
Now i just have to get a few tools and prep my ballast box when it shows up.

So good news don, 3-69 is entering modernization and is not scheduled to go anywhere anytime soon.
I have been informed to pray that he does not end up under SFC Hobbs as he is a self absorbed prick who thinks he is gods gift to the infantry.

Wallet is a bit lighter, but i made it up and back with no issues.
I would buy a donut spare in a heartbeat, unfortunately there is no spare tire well in the trunk.
Question now is.....is an 8 year old caddy worth trying to find tire/rim alternatives?
226
« on: January 17, 2022, 11:28:17 PM »
We had to make an emergency trip to sd. For a funeral. We took our Cadillac cts, and on the way back to lincoln...(about 2 hrs into a 6.5hr drive) we blew a tire. Of course it had to be 30 miles from anywhere on I-90, on a federal holiday, and with run flat tires that have to be special ordered..  called AAA and they were useless, so we called a tow, and were lucky to find a rental car (mom missile). Got the caddy dropped at a tire place and made it home for the night. So tomorrow, nate gets to go get the spare and drive 4hrs one way to drop off and have it replaced and return the rental.....and gets to drive 4hrs back home.

No, it is Not Don Proof. Maybe a 2.5 top loader might get close,,,,,,
I'm takin' some hits here...
I wouldn't say shots fired, it's more like a unit of measure. Be proud to have such a storied history that your legacy may bless others
And is this unit of measure referenced when selling your products? ....HAHAHAHAHA

Something a little different that I’m finishing up in the shop currently. Took a 14 bolt 10.5 housing and trimmed off the spindles then added a set of 2005+ Superduty Dana 60 inner c’s. I cut the c’s off a scrap housing leaving original 60 tubes intact then had the original tubes bored to accommodate the 14 bolt tubes. Used a .002 press fit on the two components.

have you looked at messicks for the 3rd function valve?
there were a few cabs for sale on those sites i posted.
233
« on: January 07, 2022, 03:17:36 PM »
for now, i will keep my 10k dump and use my enclosed if i have to transport it somewhere. I honestly can not justify another $3.5k to go to a 12' or another $6.5k to go to a 14'.
if when i get my tiller, i may see how much interest there is to make a little money with it tilling peoples gardens up for them.

I have found messicks to be very informative and they have inventory on hand.

i thought i would start a thread for the orange tractor fans. I bought a BX2680 4x4 HST dec 28th 2021 with a FEL that has skid steer quick attach, a land pride true 3rd function valve kit, front mounted pto driven snow blower, turf tires, and in the spring of 2022 i will be taking possession of a 52" pto driven reverse tine roto tiller. as of the creation of this thread, i have only had 1 snow storm to clear, and ill be darned if that thing did not even sweat while working it. here are some really helpful links for those that would like them: just about every thing kubota manuals - http://kubotabooks.com/AutoIndex/index.php?dir=I have some other links that i will copy later.

I found out today that my tractor is 1' too long for my dump trailer. And thats with no attachments.
I know it will fit in my enclosed 28', the question being.....do i trade/private sell the 10', 10k dump trailer and go with a 12' or 14'....?

i bought these at the beginning of winter last year, and they have been great. they kept my hands pretty warm last winter especially when we had our sub zero cold snap. i also use these gloves when i am handling big chunks of meat on the smoker or big hot cast iron pans from the oven. they do a dang good job of keeping the heat away for a short period as well as they have never melted on me even after handling 500deg cast iron. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B074J59W91/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&th=1did i mention that for the $34 price tag, the package contains 12 pairs?

I love my Garmin Fenix 5x Plus. But I have other watches I rotate out on wearing, for Christmas the girlfriend and her son bought me a watch box to keep them in along with my memorial bracelets. Looks nice, I used to just have them sitting out on top of a bookcase out of the way, but still where I can see the bracelets and reach the watches when I wanted to swap them out.
Thats awesome bobby, wendy got me something very similar.
