So good you were not hurt more seriously. Sounds bad enough, 20 stitches will add character to that forehead for sure.

Gun shy is a good thing. Some lessons are not intended to be learned twice.

I have a hoe however it is a case and fits nicely onto the 350b using a custom made bracket. The downside is that I also have a ripper on a 350c that mounts on a hoe bracket and it sure would be nice if they both could be used on the same crawler. The brackets are not compatible. I am not needing 35...

I am wondering if the issue is in the transmission ? Or another issue other than reverser. Jumping out of gear has everything to do with the tranny. This does not explain the teeth in the reverser case or the shim. Did the reverser lever travel front and back when the tranny was in neutral clutch pe...

I have one on, and the other off, on my 350b. Three times I have had the track off on the side without the guards. Every time in a hole or in deep bush, Each time I promise myself to put that one back on. It is still off. This spring I promise.

I havent been following the board as closely this year and missed your posts. Welcome fellow Saskatchewan member. I did see your ad on Kijiji and did not think you would have much problem finding a crawler or two. I have had trouble finding a canopy (i have one now from Alberta) and a log grapple wo...

I recently purchased 2 shanks for my ripper installed on my 350c. Deere had them in stock as well as the spring clips for adjusting them up or down. The cast wedges (about 4 inches long by an inch wide+-) that the spring clips attach too, are discontinued. Although, they are easily cut from an iron ...
