- Time to disc the garden! First Tractor Time with Tim & Dave use the John Deere 1025R with Tractor Basics disc to work the garden until they break the tractor. Next the Kubota LX3310 gets a try at pulling the disc until it breaks. Finally Tim breaks out the John Deere 3046R but doesn't get far with it either.

I am 16-year-old and I bought my first tractor. I love watching your videos. To see what implements I should get next.
Congratulations! What tractor did you get? What will you be using it for?
Apparently you shouldn’t buy this attachment, it will break your tractor too. Just kidding. Get to know your maintenance manual well. I suggest keeping an extra of each filter and oils. Good luck
It would be wise to get a loader, unless you have it already and a box blade. You can do so many different things with a box blade. After some time and money you could get a grapple of some sort.
This is a great channel not only for which attachment to get but how to use them.
I want to get a third function kit so I can put a grapple on there
Disking my fields to perfection. Nothing better.
Glad to see a video matching my usual tractor (most equipment) experience. One hour working the ground 3 hours modifying and fixing the equipment. 😊
Yep. That is the way it goes sometimes.
Get used to it. That's fairly normal anytime you use equipment
Thank you Tim for sharing and showing real-world projects. Stuff happens and some CZcamsrs only show perfection.
This is what really happens. You simply figure it out then keep going.
We had a run of bad luck on this one. Oh well. Got one fixed, and ordered part for the Kubota. Won't be long on it.
I'm not a full time farmer but: In my experience it was plow first then disc. Disc was more useful in breaking and smoothing the clods from plowing than deep grow zone turning. For small seed plants: I use a 7' 3 point tiller set at 5" deep. For deer food plots that seems to be perfect. Don't have a no-till planter so can't use one.
You are spot on first plov then the disc Harow before you can Harow the field Greetings from Norway
Exactly. Plow then disc.Could have rototilled it in half the time, without all the screwing around. He's an internet professional
I think the point was to show this for those that don't have a plow and have too small a plot to warrant the investment in both.
From my family's farm that's how it was done.
@@Dan-nj8du I prefer a tiller it does both the first time
The quick couplers facing straight up on the Kubota made my eyes twitch especially when noticing the rust. :)
that and that part that broke didn't exactly make orange look good did it?
@@donalexander4083ah, I break stuff on the green too.
yeah and sometimes things break on those that doesn't make the green look too good either 😄
and I am still trying to figure out how a push pull rod snaps in half
any thing standing out to you on what caused that?
@@TractorTimewithTim
@@donalexander4083not sure. Some comments think it was stuck, not allowing rotation. Maybe Dave yanked it? We’ll know more when we fix.
@npalen - Yeah, the couplers facing straight up does seem odd. That's a poorly done dealer or personal installation. Also, they make covers for those that would keep them clean when not in use.
To avoid needing a quick hitch, I have five tractors and leave attachments on each tractor. I own a 85 acre vegetable farm in southeastern Ind. The only tractor that uses different attachments is my 573 4/4 cab Massey: ten foot wheel disk, two shank deep ripper, and a 7 shank chisel plow. Last fall, I chiseled everything 7'' deep, then disked and finally ripped everything 24'' deep. The ground dried out faster this spring than any year before. Going to plant taters today. Love your videos, keep them coming...
Thanks for watching and commenting!
Always good to see you working the hardware and experiencing real life breakdowns. I have a generic QH on my B1709 and the Pats on my B3200. I hardly use the QH due to the top hook issues you have. Now that I know Ken has an extended hook, I may pick one up. My biggest gripe on the Pats is the need to keep the lower arms as tight as possible. If not, the attachments will pop out. Doesn’t matter if it’s the rear blade, box blade or brush cutter in my case. Once that bulb lit for me, I’ve had no issues with my Pats. Hook up issues were solved when I started using carts to easily position my attachments. Like Dave said, it’s either three minutes or 20 minutes to get hooked up. Can’t wait for it to dry out enough here to start working the soil.
After buying my Kubota tractor I bought a quick hitch from Tractor Supply. I have 2 older implements that would not fit correctly onto the hitch so I modified the implements and made them fit.
The idea of the quick hitch is to simply back up to the implement, raise the 3 point and it is attached. Pat's still means getting off the tractor and hooking up the top link.
I have both. Don't see any saving in time or effort with Pat's. That disk does a nice job. Your videos have helped me a lot in making decisions on purchasing attachments.
Excellent video and editing.
Thanks for the kind words.
3 point hitch was great invention. Unfortunately, it has not been 'improved'. Now, one of the most frustrating parts of a tractor.
L ppl l+
I completely understand that this channel is here to show what these small tractors can do and be pushed to the limits but a tiller beats this in every aspect.
Did you listen? Hmm.
Tilling is not better in every aspect. No pto shaft to maintain (i.e, slipping the clutch every ten days and keeping the shaft lubed) or implement gear box to maintain. Tillers can turn the soil to concrete if you time the weather wrong.
Great to see the Kubota even though it broke down. I was wondering if you still had it. Great video thanks Tim.
What a strange thing to break though, the feedback for the valve? How does that happen? Is there marks from a rock or something jammed in it?
I'd like to see team orange a little more often too BTW.
“We have 3 more tractors to break”. Classic, that was funny.
Enjoyed the video as always and, I’ve had days like that. Thanks for sharing “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly”. (I’ll let you figure out which is which)😊 It reminds me of the saying “Misery loves company”. And to add my two cents worth😊, I really like my quick hitch.. Blessings.
I agree with you on quick hitch compatability. I use a top link adapter for one implement, but beyond that, everything i have fits.
Pat's Quick Hitch is awesome, love it!
I enjoy your candid opinions Tim. You're polite but don't mince words :) Good video.
Thanks 👍
Jeepers, Tim! I only have one tractor, and apparently, that ain't enough!😁 It looks like I need to talk with the finance committee. You gave me a great excuse for another tractor. Bless you, Tim. 😄
Great video thanks 👍🏻
Gr8 camera work, love the working shots!
Christy thanks you. Her time riding on the disk paid off :-)
Great video!
I totally agree with the frustration over newer attachments that don't fit standard quick hitch. The standard has been for years! There is no excuse to be building non-standard for implements. This is why I avoid trying or buying attachments from many manufacturers.
Well you never know until you try. This is very informative. I agree with you the tiller is the thing to use.
Regarding the quick hitch, would you be better in this case removing it, just to jettison the extra weight? With the 3-point really close to pickup capacity for it, would that be enough to make the difference?
Per usual, love the video and content. Great info!
You should start at the beginning and watch all of them :-)
Sort by date oldest to newest…skip the piano ones if you like, start with #1.
@@TractorTimewithTim great idea, might do that soon!
Tractor time with Tim and Dave
Another great video. It should have answered or cemented some questions for people that they may or may not have had.
I have a 1025R, it serves my overall purposes based on my 5.5 acres owned. Last year I bought a tiller for it… I LOVE that thing; so much I had even jokingly told the wife that we were gonna have to get a divorce because it was a new love hahaha. I live in west-central IL and some of the nicer weather that has been flirting with us has tempted me to get out and till the gardens, but I know I’d jut have to do it again so why bother.
This video to me should’ve been proof to everyone that…
1) Stick with the same color of attachments that you have for your tractor. Yes, you may some money and supposedly they are universal to be all the same; but this video sorta proves that by sticking with color to color you shouldn’t have any problems because they are designed to work with each other.
2) The video also makes the point to make sure that you have a large enough tractor to do any job for the attachments at hand.
3) Things break. But I can’t help but think that had you done this project with a Frontier brand of tiller you wouldn’t have had any of your issues.
4) Thank you for doing this video. I’ve wondered how using a disc for my gardens would work. I see know that for me anyway, it would be a waste of money. Just going over and creating new with the tiller is the best option. Come over and we’ll fix you a cheeseburger.
5) Lastly, is Dave a hired hand on the farm? I’ve seen him in a few videos helping you now. At first I thought that maybe he was your son but since he wasn’t call Christie mom that answered that question.
Another great video Tim. I’m sorry for your issues, but I think you helped people in an unintentional way.
Thanks for your comment.
Dave works for us a couple of days per week now. We actually showed his wedding last summer in a video.
We met him during our mission trip in Honduras. Fabulous young man. We have a lot of fun together.
Yep, stick with your tiller.
Yep, we like to show all (or most) of the issues we encounter. ...and we encounter lots of fitment issues given all the different stuff we try.
Blows my mind how often the quick hitch doesn't fit most attachments. It's the most non universal, universal quick hitch setup.
A little 'turn of the crank' lol. You know a month ago I'd be wondering what you are talking about. But with dozens of hours of tractor videos behind me... I'm in the know!
"We got at least three more tractors we can bust." That's the spirit! I till deep ('21 1025R) as soon as the ground is dry enough and then shallow before I plant because I don't have a disc. Had a HD sub-soiler and a two-bottom plow with my '56 Ford 640 that prepped the gardens initially. Only three Hp more than the 1025R . . . but they were three BIG Hp! I had to cut 4" off my sub-soiler vertical pillar to allow the 1025R to have ground clearance and not just use it as a ground anchor.
I broke the same rod on my 2012 Kubota of course it was on a weekend. I made a new part out of a piece of threaded rod and kept on going. That was 6 or 7 years ago and the new piece for 35 bucks from Kubota is in the shop in the package and the treaded rod is still doing the job.
Interesting that they haven't strengthened it in the ensuing years.
I got the Pats easy change love it
Stuff only breaks when you use it. Have yet to break a tractor that was parked in the barn.
That's some grandpa wisdom there. True as can be but you never think of it that way
Mice eating wire harnesses, mud bees clogging open vent hoses, spiders getting in fuel tanks etc.😂
Great video! You may have mentioned it a couple years ago but the bracket used on the right hand side of the ROPS for the switch box where would I be able to get one? Thanks
The bracket is supplied with the Summit Hydraulics kits.
However, assuming your 1025R is older than a 2022 model, I would recommend upgrading the fender. The 22 and newer ones have knockouts in the fender. Check out this video which shows the replacement: czcams.com/video/ECycjcsspg4/video.html. Link for the appropriate parts (not expensive!!) are in the description of that video.
Using these knockouts makes for a very nice professional look.
Great video Tim. I have used a 3pt disk quite a bit. I much prefer my chisel, and disk combo to that rototiller I no longer own. lol
I do think your better choice of tractor for your disk is your 3046R.
I am able to use my power top link on my 3046R to transfer more of the weight of the tractor to the disk and get more cutting and depth out of my disk.
You probably already know all that.
PS I 100% agree quick hitch is the way to go. I agree completely everything that can be should be designed properly to be quick hitch compatible.
We had a quick hitch on all our farm tractors way back in the 70s and 80s.
Interesting.
Good comment.
I still LOVE my rototillers.
You got it hooked up to the right tractor now.
My wife got a JD 3038e for Mother's Day. I bought her a 5' disc. I have been farming for 50 years. I was shocked at how poorly those little discs preform. She also had a quick hitch and gave up on it. A buddy of mine was messing with his CAT 4 or 5 and crushed his thumb which caused him to spend 5 days in the hospital getting IV antibiotics.
As fast as the QH makes changing attachments, there are times that the juice is worth the squeeze. The further from your hitch the implement is, the less weight it can lift. When you don’t have the lift power on your three point to lift the implement without sucking it up with the top link, bringing it that 3” closer to the machine makes a world of difference.
In Missouri we had rock hard soil in a lot of places. We found a single point ripper a curved one not the new straight things. Run that about every 12 to 16 inches. Then follow with a little single mold board plow or a double. Then disc.in a single winter the soil would get hard enough a tiller didn't want to stay in the ground.
I bought a sidearm ditchbank mower @ an auction & got a quickhitch to try to make it easier to attach to the tractor. Turns out the toplink pin on the mower is 4" too high for the quickhitch. Not sure what the solution should be. It takes probably an hour to hook up by myself the way it is. I've considered Pat's quickhitch.
Pat’s probably best.
I don't use my quickhitch anymore. I almost find it easier to hook straight up to 3pt. Also w the 1 series it takes off a bit of weight back there and moves everything marginally closer. I also think the 3 point gives more range of motion.
I have a JD 3039R and similar sized disk to what was used for this video. First off, disks are better for bigger areas, tillers are better for smaller areas. This garden is a bit small for a disk because it's tough to get speed and work the ends and corners well. This is what I have found works best in my food plots that get disked annually. First 2-3 passes, low range so 3.5-4 MPH, most aggressive disk gang angle and let the 3 point as low as it goes to allow for the deepest cut available. Next 3-4 passes, minimal disk gang angle, changing my approach angle to the field, mid range 7-8 MPH keeping the disk up a bit. This tends to level and throw the dirt. When I say throw the dirt, I mean across the faces of the other disks and to the outside. This provides great mixing, especially when trying to mix lime in to a food plot. If the soil hasn't been worked for more than a year, it needs to be ploughed first with a moldboard plough.
I don't know about anyone else, but a demonstration of the land leveler on the garden would be interesting to me. I got mine now and I have to say I am extremely impressed with it! I had both of my gravel driveways thoroughly ripped up and leveled the worst areas within a few short hours. I drug out a ton of gravel from a hard to reach spot under our wind break bush line without destroying the bushes like I might have with a landscape rake. I have never had that much fun with a grader blade or a box blade, they always seem to be allot of headaches and adjustments to get them to do half the job in twice the time. Best part, I didn't have to borrow the box blade or grader from my brother, he has instead asked if he could borrow the land leveler. Good luck selling that Orange thing! I mean, fixing...
Glad you are finding the HeavyHitch.com land leveler effective. I found it to be quite handy! for others, check out the video here: czcams.com/video/w09NQHakXUo/video.html and use code TTWT for 5% discount.
I’m glad you often show the 3R. In my area within 1 hour there is three of I believe 7 John Deere dealers all the same company and they Do Not bring in a 3R open station. Lots of 3E’s but the R’s have cabs and I someday I would like to move up from my 1025r. I refuse to buy a tractor without being able to lay hands on it so the Orange dealer only 5 minutes is looking better. 😩
The 3R open station is amazing tractor! In many ways better than the cab version, especially if you are taller.
@@TractorTimewithTim I would be using it in the woods a lot and I feel a cab would just get in the way.
With the quick hitch the disk is farther away from the tractor. You may be able to lift the disk without the quick hitch. As for time considerations how much time is lost lifting the disk with the hydraulic top link? Oliver and Case were one of the first lower link "quick hitch" but JD used it on the top link.
I have felt bad for 2 years about tearing up a QH15 and bending it. Now I feel better to see you a) have the same trouble hooking up 'easy' 3-points and b) tearing up 3 point hitch kit.
As a newbie I felt I was doing something wrong. Now I know it is now all my fault.
If you said it, I missed it. Did Tractor Basics list this disc as quick hitch capable?
I helped on our farm last year with discing… in a JD8960… Tractor didn’t break but the disc did haha, much bigger disc though.
hi Tim like your videos i was wondering if you didn't have the weight of the quick hitch if it would make a difference in lifting
Yes, it would…the reduced distance to attachment would help even more.
Lol that orange thing will appear next on Neils Deals!!!!!
Tim, I have always wondered why you pull the release arms on the QH up prior to hooking implement. Any QH I have ever used the locking thumbs on the lower links are angled so when you lift the implement they get pushed in and then come back out locking the implement in place when its engaged and lifted.
same reason I pull up the spring loaded releases on the loader before attaching. It makes the connectivity easier, and sometimes the spring is strong enough to dislodge the attachment, not allowing it to connect properly. I have plenty of issues with the quick hitch as it is...anything I can do to make it smoother, I do.
Tractor to small. My max 26 Mahindra which has alot bigger tires etc. I run a 6.5 foot county line finish disc.love it great results.
Try this for an alternative. Move the brackets up to the top hole and then put a second bolt (with sleeve if provided) in the bottom hole for the quick hitch. That angles the brackets like you want and maybe solves some of your problems with the quick hitch.
hilarious. Please watch the prior episode. czcams.com/video/v6ILnETxI7Q/video.html ...and read some of the comments on it.
Exactly what I was thinking.
You really meed to buy the plugs they make for the quick couplers on the back of the Kubota to protect them when not in use. All that rust will contaminate your hydraulic system.
@ ~18:15 You know, Bolt on Hooks sells some really nice caps for those quick couplers. 😉
Do you know if you going to use the blue tracker anytime this summer? Love to see it working hard and the battery's still have plenty of power. Oh throw I wish it was Red like the T,Y,M tracker from Branson.
Love your videos.
What is your vice about Branson 2505H tracker versus Mahindra 1626 HST tracker
Did you see our recent solectrac video? czcams.com/video/pTDxMZfj6yk/video.html We will not be showing the solectrac in action again. Sorry.
I have a farm pro 2420 and run a old 4 foot disc and a Titan 4 foot tiller the only thing I have been tilling my gardens and the surface turns hard with a crust so this year I am disc after I till and hopefully that will stop the soil from having a crust
Glad to see the Kabota is back. I figured you traded back to Neil for the mini trackhoe
Than he marketed it as a rare TTWT edition
I call my I-match 3 point hook-up a marriage saver!! (humor). My wife had to always help me before I-MATCH!! ( glad my neighbors don't live close!!!) I have an early model without the top adjust holes!! and a later one with the holes in the top. I finally got all my attachment to work with the proper top link spacing. I know your struggles!!
I know what you mean about "glad the neighbors don't live close". I'm embarrassed by the tone I use with Christy at times. Embarrassed and ashamed. Thankfully, they forgive us.
@@TractorTimewithTim My wife Can generally give back what she receives.!! I generally deserve it !! I also most times regret things get to this stage!! Generally this comes at the end of the day when we are both tired. Thankfully we both are able to return to our forgiving relationship when the day is done and our goals ( most of the time)are reached. Thanks for your personal response!! I certainly will keep on watching and Increasing my small tractor knowledge bank even though I can't do even close to all the Mod's you do !!
Thanks for another great video!! What ever happened to your daughter, Katriel? I always enjoyed seeing her in your videos! Thanks again!!
She grew up.
She got a master's degree from John's Hopkins, and is now working for the USDA in Washington DC.
She will be getting married in June.
We miss her around here too, but happy she is doing well.
The size of the Kubota sure makes him bounce less - much smoother ride for sure. Great video.
Larger tires and a bit more weight really helps!
I have been looking at tillers and to know it is going to fit my John Deere quick hitch now, I am buying a John Deere tiller. Now I did get a landscaping rack from Homestead equipment and it hooked right to the quick hitch with no adjusting.
The maschio tiller from Agfolks.com fits perfectly. Use code TTWT for 5% discount. Incredibly tough tiller!
I may be wrong but I believe the top link needs to be flexible to allow the disk to float. My quick hitch came with another connector for the top that is not a hook but a flexible link.
wow hi tim i have never got here this early
18:51 Dave sounds like Chris Pratt
My father physically cant maneuver some of our attachments around to connect them. I went as far as making my box blade quick hitch.. the only thing I have left that isn't quick hitch. Is the Rotary Cutter And finish mower.
For my Toro 522xi garden tractor I bought two Agri-Fab discs that I will assemble back to back, add a tongue hitch and add its own wheels with a lift. I’m doubtful any sleeve hitch would lift it. The bumps created doing that would show anything loose in your tractors steering system.
As a teen I use to use a 1 bottom moleboard plow around now on a 17hp lawn and garden tractor then let the grass and weeds die while turned over and come back in about a month and disc it down to a seed bed. Now I'm spoiled 30hp Kubota and 60" tiller makes perfect bed! But got to admit it was more fun plowing and dissing! Probably because it was more of a challenge to do a good job!
quick hitch gets in the way of PTO hookup, that's why I went with pats easy change
We would refer to it as a "disc harrow" and consider it a secondary tool used after plowing to break up clods and prepare a seedbed.
I have one of those 6 ft. angle iron framed disks and it is too light. The most penetration I can get is 4 inches and that requires several passes. I can't adjust the gangs past position #3 without it making the tractor crab terribly. I know some pieces of railroad steel would be ideal to add weight but that ain't gonna happen. I bought a 5 ft. tiller to use after disking and that helped tremendously.
Have never been unable to do my work because my Pat's needs modified .
I guess everyone likes to use there time in different ways !
I had to remove Pat’s because they didn’t fit several of the attachments we were demonstrating.
To demonstrate that a quick hitch doesn't fit everything either .
Proof that nothing is perfect. Just interesting that you recommend one over the other...when both clearly aren't the answer.
Even still...both are better than trying to kick the lower arms on over the pins!
Something else to consider with the Pat's.. along with a longer toplink.
For me..I had used my tractor a few years before I got the Pat's . So when I changed over....my tiller pto shaft was also too short and would disconnect . So I ended up buying a whole new shaft..and cutting to proper length.
I think which ever way you go..stay with it..and learn all its strengths and weaknesses ...and just deal with it !
Changing your mind seems like a frustrating way to spend $ !
I like to disc once, then wait for new weeds which are going to pop up from turning over weed seeds, then couple weeks disc again, kill those off otherwise you end up with more weeds with single discing. You're in good shape doing it that way.
found this interesting Tim, i have found with the quick hitch you could put on six implements and never move hook go to another and you got to change height i put pins instead of bolts on that hook real fast also i used my 1025 for years with just the 3pt no issues after buying the hitch no matter what i did my Deere 647 tiller would not fit , called dealer and Deere NO CLUE what i found was the 3 pt lower pins on tiller could be reversed on the tube frame , that did it ! seems some one installed those and it works with 3pt but not quick hitch, live and learn i called back Deere and they made a case file about it
Those are cute
Tim, as long as you’re modifying the disk why not shorten the other end where the bolt is and drill a new hole. You have the hydraulic top link so it should work.
Yep. That would help.
I wonder if shortening those bars might adjust the angle enough the top pin would be the right height.
I'm one of many people that thought putting the bolt in the bottom hole would work but the geometry on the disc part of the hitch is still terrible.
What size was the kubota?
Could you switch the quick hitch from one of the other tractors and kept going?
Looks like half my job after retirement is to modifications to my quick hitch on my 3 series John Deere to fit accessories I had when I had an old antique tractor I bought 30 years ago.
Ah, it isn’t THAT bad!
It seems like the Pat's Quick Hitch would have worked much better and would have taken a lot of weight off the 3 point hitch. I use the Pat's after I first heard about it on your channel. I have both old and new attachments and it solves the compatibility problems.
I don’t remember if you mentioned it in the unboxing video, but does this disc allow you to adjust how aggressive the disk blades cut? I would love to see the disk cutting into the dirt more than the slight tilt you had on the blades.
Right after I wrote the comment above, you mentioned changing the gangs.
and yes, it allows changing aggressiveness...but we did not adjust for this video.
My disk are at least 50 years old and the only attachment i have to take my quick hitch off but it’s really heavy with railroad iron welded on top
I'm curious as to why would you even choose to pull the disc with the 1025R when you have the 2038R, 3046R, and the Kubota? Not to mention the small tire size makes making multiple passes at different angles more of a rodeo.
Easy answer. There are 10x 1025r’s out there compared to 3R’s….for example.
Everyone wants to know what the 1025r can handle.
By your logic, I would never use the 1025r.
I like it... Cheese Burger Ballast! 😆
pats easy change works with everything
No, it doesn’t . Not perfect either.
Great content as usual Tim. Would it be possible to link that ASAE specification?

@@TractorTimewithTim Thank you Tim!
It amazes me how you clearly state this video is to demonstrate different equipment while stating your preference for a rototiller, only to have so many comments about how it's not the proper tool and to use a tiller. Sheesh
Yep. Welcome to my world. Thanks for noticing!
Also on the lx3310... I definitely thought It got traded in on the mini ex
I believe Roundup will help that ground dry out quicker, making the disk work easier. Plus you’ll not need as many passes!
Once I picked up a tiller I never looked back. Sold my monster disk asap, it was just to big a heavy . Vary abusive to the Tractor when you had it in the air with the three-point. It also was not effective when working in a tight space.
Yep. I agree. For almost all applications, I like a tiller better.
Tim unlike most inmates orange looks good on you. Hi guys from SE Tennessee. I have nothing to add, just wanted to help this video w/ a comment and a like.

Adjust your fore/aft tilt forward to eliminate the ridge in the middle that it’s throwing on the Kubota.
Do they make this disk in a pull type option? Depending on the application that might be an ok option for a sub compact
they do not. I haven't seen a small pull-type disk. Maybe I could transform this one :-)
Then, I could add lots of weight to it!
@TractorTimewithTim there are some made but they are light weight things designed to pull behind an utv for food plot preparation.
I have a pat's easy change and a 1025r, they have made things easier but the three point arms on a 1025r do NOT move parallel to each other they move in arcs and so depending on the height the arms are closer together or farther apart and if you have the pat's hooks tight to the arms they tilt in or out. The balls in the arms account for this tilting of the arms but pat's hooks do not. I feel like I should have just got the quick hitch. Hopefully I explained it well enough to help others out.
Yep!
Were you able to determine why the "bolt" broke on the LX3310 ? I have one. Thought I may need to keep an eye on it.
dunno. Got the replacement today. Have not yet fixed.
And I still wonder why the International Harvester 2 point quick attach didn't catch on industry wide. It was way better than any current 3 point quick attach system.
Just an idea for the disc. Add a set of holes between the two existing holes. Since the lower holes are too low & the upper holes are too high, the new holes might be just right.
Would it not work to cut those bars that run from the center of the disc to the top link pin and drill a new hole making it shorter so the top link sits more straigh/vertical??
Many solutions. Why didn’t manufacturer choose ONE of them!?
holding that broken bolt with your hand inside the moving 3 point setup? Dangerous??
The seat on little Johnny was really getting a workout! You could really see it absorbing all the bumps & ruts so the driver didn't have to take the hits...the 2nd seat was stiff and all that shock was on the drivers spine. I think the tiller does a nicer job, if you till it first then use a land plane to level out the garden (if it's needed) that would be the neatest & quickest.
tracseats.com use code ttwt! It is really nice!
Always have wanted to see what a power harrow would do on a subcompact tractor? Have you tested one of those on your channel? They look like vertical tillers kinda
