Where are they??

I stopped by a farm a few minutes back and there sat a JD. It appeared to be a MC or 3 roller 40, But that is not the question. The question is about the blade on it. Outside mount, manual angle. A frame was connected to both cross bars the blade pivot was on the front one. The lift system was an en...

Went to a gun show last weekend. I bought a Hawkeye scope. Has anyone tried looking inside a tractor with one of these?? :shock: :shock: For those not familiar with a Hawkeye, it has a 17" long, 1/4" diameter optic tube for looking inside gun barrels. It has a 90 degree mirror on the end if desired.

I haven't heard the official temp yet, but hearing guys around the area talking -35. We were -24 about 8:00 last night, back up to that now. Grand Forks broke their record two nights ago, -38, we were only -28 the same night, so not sure what they had last night if we went below 30. International F...

Lavoy, better get that puppy running....it's baaaack :? :? Last night I went to bed around midnight and it was raining, freezing rain that is. This morning the table on the deck had about 8-9" of fresh on it and it hasn't quit snowing as of now. Probably nearing a foot. it's headed your way :twisted...

Do NOT crank said engine over to blow the aforementioned liquid out of the cylinder without putting a towel over the hole. Or, you will have a large sticky mess sprayed all over the crawler, the floor, the idiot standing by the crawler, the bench next to the crawler, the wall above the bench, and al...

I decided not to have breakfast on the deck this morning...............

Are you talking a power 6 way blade or the manual model 62 blade? Just wondering if anyone has ever modified a blade off a 440 to fit a 420. It is an after market "noname?" (came off of a 420). It has 4 way power, not on the angle, but I'm considering adding it when I mount it. A little welding and...

Well, it's 12 degrees out, the suns out and it's a nice day. The D-4 battery is on the bench hooked to the charger. Time to crank it up and clear the drive. There is a storm watch on for Sun with 12-18" more on the way so I better clear it while I can.

Get ready Lavoy it's headed your way.

:lol: :lol: Yeah right :? I'm moving snow with a small 4wd JD with a back blade and loader right now but it's getting too deep. I'm in the early repair/rebuild work on my 420 and plan mounting a 6 way blade on it. There's no way it'll be done this year so it looks like I'll have to start the D-4. :o...

so it is kind of a puzzle, and some of the puzzle pieces are missing.

Honey, lets put the frosted flakes back in the box and I'll explain to you why you can't get the tiger puzzle together.

My search didn't answer my questions. I know JD manuals overlap models and more than just your model may be needed. Can a sticky be added as to which manuals are needed for each model?? I'm going to start tearing down a 420 in a month or so and would like to know what I need. I do have some books no...

I gave this to my wife last night. She's a Minasooota native and a Viking fan from day one of the team. She said it's a true story

:lol: :lol: :lol: Ole and Sven die in a snowmobiling accident, drunker than skunks, And go to he!!. The Devil observes that they are really enjoying themselves. He says to them "Doesn't the heat and smoke bother you?" ; Ole replies, "Vell, ya know, ve're from nordern Minnesooota, da landof snow an i...

Bad fuel?? Water in the fuel?
