Topic

I just ordered my power beyond kit for my JD790. We went in circles for a bit, because JD Parts said that the part was obsolete.

I had ordered it from Ricky since he helped me find it.

When I the Rear Hydo Kit, the manual said it was for 660/770, I think, and it fit the 790 like a charm. So my guess is some of the parts are backward compatible.

Good Luck

If you added a healthy dose of Power Sevice, that should bump it up, and help in other places it may lack???

Just wondering if it has been done and how there engine ran.. I'm guessing good and rough.

That sounds a bit like my place in spots. I don’t know the degree of the slope yet but, if I had a clock and a straight line it would be 10 and 4 / 11 and 5.<br>
<br>
I do that with my JD 790 and I keep the FEL on, 4wd, and Lock the differential. Straight up and down. Go slow and I don’t go on it if the grass is wet or it has rained the day before, otherwise its like sledding in July!!..<br>
Yikes!! LOL<br>

Well it's new and its better to get the minor bugs out of the way while it still under warrantee.

If you traded to Kubota what says that will be any different? I'm not bashing Kubota at all but it’s just a fluke thing, happens to the best of them...

The seal could be missing torn etc. The bolts haven’t been over tightened have they??

Call your dealer.
Good Luck

Yes the number worked fine...<br>
<br>
We called about five different dealers around the country. But there were all spoken for. So I gave Rick all my info and gave him the sale... He'll give me a call to let me know when I can expect to see it. Looking forward to get that installed!<br>
Now I need to figure out what I've be using it for right off the bat.<br>

I hear ya,

I never thought of unloading the truck down by the road, but then you have concrete, and other heavy equip.

I'm just trying to get a handle on what needs to be done when I get to start this building thing. Years down the road. I plan on doing as much as I can myself and ahead of time if possible...

When I pick a log dealer they should be able to help some too.

I'm also trying to figure out where to burry the power and teleco wire, and preserve the view.....

It is very nasty out there right now.

Your best bet is a non Microsoft operating system; everyone is out to get Gates. I have found Suse 9 Linux very easy to install and use.

If you wish to use Microsoft, try out Spy sweeper from www.webroot.com, they are the most complete scanner out there right now.

Looking for a box scraper...<br>

My dealer seemed to think i could get a BB1072 for $860, and use it in my hard soil, and i also found a used Woods GB65 for $765<br>
<br>
Should i be looking at the 65" and which price sounds better for the JD790? Better quality????<br>

Make sure you use ballast of some kind, weather it’s the ballast weight box or simply an implement. Counter weight will keep you from doing a noise dive!

Boy, I wouldn’t be trading down, you now have a feel and are use to the power of the 790, and I think you might be disappointed. If I had to switch to hydro I would be looking to at least go larger or the same hp.

Is there any way to do your work at a different angle and ride the brake when necessary to keep you from rolling, which seems to work for me?

I stayed away from the hydros because there was too many electric switches for a machine I want to last my life time and be in the elements, also there have been some discussion of people on steep grades having problem with loosing hydro fluid pick up. I also believe that some horse power is lost through the hydro compared to the gear........ That’s just my 2 1/2 cents maybe more! LOL Good Luck!!

Is this true with the JD790? I asked my dealer and what they set up was just the remote line that connected to where the quick connects for the FEL where. I could not have the FEL connected and the remote line at once..

My 790 came in May short the mid-pto, four weeks ago the dealer came by took it back to the shop and installed the mid-pto. After returning it, there was a clicking sound coming from the rear end. It would stop if I put the clutch all the way down, or when I would engage the mid-pto.<br>
<br>
The dealer has had it for about 3 weeks now, apart and back together, and has "left a message or post" to John Deere to see if anyone else had had similar issues. As of a week and a half ago Deere had not responded, and the dealer said something about there not being some kind of noise dampener in the ROPS....??<br>
<br>
Any ideas or does yours do the same?<br>
<br>
P.S. Almost always, when I depress the clutch and shift into a gear at idle or faster at a complete stop the gears grind into place.. I cringe every time it happens.. Is there something not right here??<br>
<br>
Thanks, Brian<br>

Cut them down with a saw or clippers and then keep the cutting it with a rough cut mower... grass will start to come in if there is light.

Any pictures of the land??
Is it all forest right now??

I'm doing something similar with my place, cutting down the undesirables and mowing around and getting grass to come in.
