The Official Farming Thread...

I still have calcium in my Zetor. Need to get that out and fill them with methanol. The rims look like crap. I have 540 pounds of wheel weights on my VAC. My father in law has methanol in his AC 175 and Agco 5650. His AC 7020 has a few hundred pounds of weights on the rear with dry tires.

I have a PTO seal leaking like crazy on my 2640. Prolly pull it apart in the morning.

Do you have to tear the whole ass end out or just a seal retainer? Never worked on a Deere tractor. We're an orange farm!

 

[jakethesnake]

You don’t need a lot of weight in my opinion unless you’re plowing and tillage. We still have calcium in everything. I’ll go to washer fluid when the time comes i bust one

The only tractor we have that isn’t loaded is the AC 7000. It definitely would be nice for tillage, if it were, but for hay work and such, an unloaded tractor is gentler on the fields.

I'm waiting for a service manual. I hate to tear into it blind.

I'm the opposite. I tear into it and wish I had a service manual!

Those things are expensive. I was able to score an original for my Zetor for 50 bucks on eBay. Came in the original Zetor 3 ring binder too. I was super excited!

Agreed.

It's nice to have the extra weight in the rear on the hills we have around here though.

Had to pull a calf. Two hours later she still hadn’t had it. Little sob was still alive. Very big calf. Almost certain it’s gonna make it. It was sucking when I finally got momma back on her feet

I know nothing about ebay, but that sounds like a super deal to me. ( about half price of dealer ) If they can get it!

Yep. Dry as a popcorn fart around here.

It is very dry and hot here right now. Getting alot of hay processed though. Hopefully will finish the first cutting this weekend.

 

[jakethesnake]

I’m gonna try to cut today. Bale Saturday or Monday. Broke a whole bar on my rake the other day. Time bar I guess is what they call it. I drove a piece of pipe inside the two broken pieces. Welded her up. I think she’ll go
