I think the trick to working on tractors is to have that models service manual,they get a little pricey but still cheaper than dealers service dept..........good luck

That's great news.

I was wondering this afternoon while out bring cows out of the hills how the "snowbank "mechanic was doing. But I was afraid to ask. :wink:

No spare parts! :shock:

Bah, having spare parts left over simply means you've lightened the machine and improved an engineering flaw...

[Silver]

Atta boy! Glad to hear things worked out for you.

No spare parts! :shock:

Bah, having spare parts left over simply means you've lightened the machine and improved an engineering flaw...

:lol: :lol: :lol: That's closer to the truth than most of us would like to admit.

I am, however, trying to re-engineer that flaw. :wink: :lol:

When I buy a piece of equipment if it is from a dealer I insist on a parts book as well as the service book. I do not accept only the operators book given out.

If they try to charge extra I remind them there are other dealers out there.

I have a file cabinet dedicated just to the different books for the equipment and when I'm done with service or repairs the books go back!

I'm kind of like Northern Rancher- hate steel- not much of a mechanic- and don't have much equipment anymore since I've gone "low input"--but for that I do or any I buy, usually used at an auction, I've found that with a little searching on the internet you can usually find someone thats selling a CD of the parts book and/or service manual for $5-10...

Congratulations, now you and BMR can open a mechanics shop together :wink:

 

[Blkbuckaroo]

Now ya' got a months worth of work to catch up on

 

[per]

Once you get far enough behind it looks like you are ahead. Hope you didn't freeze any fingers doing the intricate stuff in the cold. :wink:

 

[gcreekrch]

At least now I can plow snow in order to haul the rest of my hay. :roll:

If BMR and I start a shop you will know the economy is bad enough that there are no others left.
