You're right, I meant the L2800.<br>
<br>
I'm also considering the B7800, and it might come down to pricing. The two tractors (B3030 and B7800) are identical in most ways.<br>
<br>
How did the pricing on your B7800 work out?<br>

Thanks! Jim

No, the salesman quoted this on a standard machine with standard tires. He has not found it yet and does not have it on the lot. If he does find one with other options, he said he would discount them the same as the unit itself or about 17%.

I know that a cab on a 43 hp tractor is probably not something you come across all the time and this may be why he is having a problem finding it. I want the cab as it was 100 F and about 50% humidity in centerville, tx. I dont really need much more hp because I intend to use it only to mow.

Thanks Murf, we'll be camping. I'm not sure the little wife would even trust me at home with her babies. We'll all be coming. That's just the way it has to be.

Trucks are kind of like tractors, I could love almost any kind if it is good to me. I was looking at the newer dodges. A friend stopped to see me today I asked if he got a new truck since I didn't recognize it. It was a loaner from the dealer. His 2003 Ford 6.0 dually with 37,000 miles was in the shop for the 8th time. Erradic idle tons of black smoke, won't accelerate poor milage, and to boot the A/C compressor went out. Dealer has already put new injectors, now they say it is a pcv valve. They found metal bits in the A/c so whole system has to be flushed and comp replaced. He still loves fords but is ready to get the lemon law into action. Same story from my chevy buddies just different problems.

The LX5 is a good light duty rotary cutter, but before I would spent that much money on light duty cutter, I think I would buy the Rural King Farm Star standard duty rotary cutter or the Tractor Supply Center King Kutter standard duty cutter. Rural King had the 5' Farm Star rotary cutter on sale right for $529 last week. Tractor Supply Center King Kutter 5' rotary cutter costs $599.

I have not heard of boom damage from tracks at all. I suppose you could double up the strips if you got longer rivets.

I am interesting in a Curtis Cab for a 4310 tractor........has anyone seen one of these installed on a 4000 series tractor? I understand it will also fit the new 3320 and so on tractors. Some cab companies have started selling a 5000 BTU 12 volt Air Conditioner for their cabs. I think they got the idea from the ones installed on golf carts........i don't feel that this unit would work very well...please give me your thoughts.<br>
Thank You<br>

I think the basic answer to your question is: a large L-series will do the job, but you'd probably be happier with an M-series. The MX5000 is an excellent value assuming you can do without some of the bells and whistles. An open station M4900 or M5700 can also be had for a reasonable price.

SIPS are a great way to build. I used ICF's for my walls, and then the icynene type insulation for my attic, but wish I would have figured out how to fit SIPS into the budget.

The only important thing is that they be installed properly, with all gaps/joints sealed with foam glue. In super cold environments, moisture from the interior can condense on the underside of the outer sheathing, if there are unsealed gaps. Google "Juno" and SIPS and you'll find the details.

All in all, a good way to build.

You are correct. That 'bow' is called a 'crown' and does the same thing as the crown in a piece of wood, it flattens under load.

In the case of your trailer it is to maintain the wheeels in a vertical position under load by ensuring that any flex only brings the axle back to flat.

Best of luck.

Just wondering what tires, ag or industrial would be most practical when snow removal during the winter is important on a steep hill, and woods work is important other times?

Thanks

I am wondering if anyone has had any experience building and/or owning clay-lined ponds. I would like to build a 1-acre recreational pond for swimming and fishing. Last week I had my excavator dig a few test-pits to determine soil content. Unfortunately, we hit shale at about 4 to 5 feet. In order to prevent the pond from leaking, I would have to line the bottom and banks with cohesive clay soil. This is a lot of extra work. My question is� is it worth it? Has anyone had a similar experience with building a pond in a shale area? I have ponds all around me, and no one seems to have a problem. Unfortunately none of these people built them themselves, so I cant ask them how they did it.

The real question is NOT, IMHO, how BIG a tractor do I need, it is how FAST do I want to get things done?

I was watching a special just last night on RFDTV on classic tractors, ones from pre-WWII, some from wayyyyyy before. These were "primary tillage" machines, in other words, if they didn't do it, a person and/or horse had to.

Most of them were LESS than 20hp at the draw-bar.

There is a 'hippie' near me who runs an 50 acre organic market gardening operation, he has just one tractor, a WVO-fuelled Kubota B7100, which makes a whopping 16hp at the crank on dino-diesel, who knows what french fry oil reduces that to.

Best of luck.

Hi

Looking at CK30/25 HST. One big job will be snow removal/plowing on a very steep driveway.

I'm assuming Ag tires will be best in heavy snow?

When working in the woods in dry weather I also would think they would be more subject to puncture from roots/rocks?

Thanks for any advice, and also the CK25 vs. CK30...

Howard is one of the first tiller companies that built for the US market being here probably well over 30 years at this point. They, like most companies build both upper end and lower end. Good tillers use slip clutches and with the side to side movement they have a sliding driveshaft to align the gearbox so it doesn't need to run sideways off the tractor to match up. The size of the tines do make a difference in tine life as well as the tillers ability. Small high tensile tines will go into the ground easier then larger tines and the high tensile steel that is often used on the smaller tines wears excellent or even better then the larger crude steel tines. The smaller tines do the same work with less horsepower loss and less vibration on the tractor in hard pack ground.
