With no stabilizers attached the BX is tire to tire. The BX backhoe unit fits tight to the tractor.

Murf hits the nail right on the head...

On road Diesel is 2.40 right now and I had my heating oil tank filled a month ago at 1.51. The local fuel company�s don�t deliver less then 150 gallons at a time. There is no way I would use 150 gals of ag in a year, but used more than the 5 gal cans, where they were not practical.

When the heating oil was delivered I had the driver fill my 30gal barrel which I put on a pallet and bought down to the house.

Hi all. Here is the update. The American made 25Amp fuse works perfect. I was explaining this to someone else and they thought that becuase the foreign made one had thinner blades that it probably wasn't making as good of contact with the terminals in the fuse block and therefore it was getting hot.

Well, that's one problem solved. On to fixing that drawer in the kitchen.

Thanks again for all the help everyone gave.

Northern Tool has them. If you don't find what you need there I can dig up another link.

NT also has the Easy Change system. It adds a couple of inches to the existing arm but is less flexible with top and tilt operations.

Kendrews & LBrown, my comment about legality is that the trailer regulations in every state regulation, and the ICC rules, that I have seen all have one clear exemption.

They usually state the maximum trailer weights as something like "X,XXX pounds or the vehicles GCWR, whichever is the lesser of the two.". Minivans don't typically have high trailer towing rates unless specially ordered with a trailer-tow prep. package.

In any case, the weight limits for ANY trailer are the lowest factor in the equation. For instance, if you have a 10k # tandem trailer and hook it to a 1 ton dually, but it only has a ball through the bumper, which is stamped as 3500 # max. then thats all your legal for, including the trailer itself. Unless that minivan has a Class III or higher trailer hitch (2"x2" square receiver type) on it then anything more than 3,500 # is technically illegal. If it has the 'hidden hitch' type of trailer hitch that uses a 2" x 5/8" flat bar then anything over 2,000 # is a no-no.

Billy, re-read your policy statement, the big legalese document. I think you will find a statement in there about the coverage that says something like "covered for.... as long as the vehicle is maintained and operated according to the applicable statutes and regulations.". If they pay for an accident when you were speeding, or ran a stop, it's only because they wanted to. As for DUI, they only pay for damage done to others property, not the driver's unless the vehicle is financed or leased, and then they will only pay the 3rd party. If it's a write-off and it was worth $20k but only had $5k still owing, they will pay off the $5k lien-holder and refuse to pay the balance.

Best of luck.

I'll design and build devices for you. Tell me what tractor you are purchasing and I'll work with my local dealers to get dimensions, etc. I have John Deere, Case/IH, Cub Cadet, Kubota and Mahindra dealers close to me that I would work with.

Do you also need a lift to get up into the tractor? Are you going to have a loader and/or other devices? Are you going with gear or hydro? The cost will depend on what model you get. Shipping to the UK will be about US$75.00. I'm guessing the product at being less than US$300.00. If it is a conventional hydro, hand brake levers can replace the brake pedals. As for an example. The normal toggle of going forward and backward with ankle movement could be changed to right/left knee motion. Engineering will be free.

Water will run in many things other than an open ditch.

If you are concerned about the volume of water and getting rid of it at the bottom of the slope just line the ditch with some heavy plastic and fill it with washed gravel.

The gravel will allow the water to run through, the plastic will stop any erosion and help stop the gravel from mixing into the soil, and the ditch will be filled level so you can pass right over it.

Best of luck.

We rent wood splitters for 30 dollars a day and they roll out every year. I've watched farmers that thought that they saved money by buying one to run off there tractor. The worst one was a fellow that clear cut about 100 acres and splitting the tops and the culls after the price of the splitter was two tractor valves at about 1800 dollars each. He could have bought a tow behind unit that was basically commercial duty for less then two thousand and burned a lot less fuel as well as the repairs.

It would make a difference, you talk of backhoe work, that when wet or sometimes not so wet the loose soil causes the tires to fill up and become a big slippery ball and give no traction. Ag tires don't do it so quickly and tend to clean out faster so more work can be done. If you have a lot of digging to do, not knowing your soil conditions I'd go with the ag style as we do have people mowing with the ag tires. On the other side of it on the BX's the other set of tires and wheels is only about $300.

I never kept track of the HST volume. I just kept pumping until it reads on the dipstick.

---------------------------------
But if you know how much things hold it eliminates the pump check. pump check pump check, pump check hassle.
Also if you happen to overfill you get to play the drain some out and start the pump check cycle all over again game.

I know on my trucks they hold 5 quarts.
When i change oil I dump in 5 quarts start er up run for 5 min. check for leaks shut her off an check the oil.
It's always right where it should be every time.
