    Switch to manual glow plug control now!

    My 1009 glow plugs failed last winter so I have been starting with starting fluid for several months. I started changing the plugs and broke the first one off, I had to pull the injector and fish the broken piece out. So I waited a couple more months and finally had time to put the new ones...

    5 Tons, trailers and Max GVW

    I have to say the m872 pulls great behind the m818. I recently brought home two container chassis trailers and my m1009 from Kansas to Nebraska. Ive been hauling soybeans with my m818 and a Stoughton hopper trailer. I had 900 bushels and weighed a little over 80000 lbs. I have one hill between...

    M919 gets 16.00 ZXLs

    Im putting a 22 foot box on for this year and the center will be over the rear axles (if the box is full the rear will be carrying all the load) so the air tag will not really be useful. According to the tm, the tandem is rated 58000, the wheels are rated 13000 and the tires are rated 14000 so...

    M919 gets 16.00 ZXLs

    After harvest I plan on extending the frame, taking off the pusher axle and putting a steerable tag on the back. The shop is my Dad's dream shop, he tells me quite often that he wished he had the shop and tools 50yrs ago but he is getting good use out of it now.

    M919 gets 16.00 ZXLs

    Seems like there are a lot of tires being mounted this week. I finally got my tires on the Hemmt wheels and put them on the m919. I need to get the grain box mounted and hydraulics hooked up to my pto and then harvest can start.

    m816 home and questions

    The shaft from the Transfercase to the powerdivider is what Im refering to. It spins if the transmission is in gear and the transfercase is in neutral. Im guessing that it is also turning when Im going down the road, unless it is only engaged if the transfer case is in neutral and not...

    m816 home and questions

    I checked the lever behind the seat. It just puts an auxillary transmission in gear to run the crane/rear winch. I still cant find a way to shut off the shaft coming out of the back of the transfer case. The shaft turns irregardless of the lever behind the seat but the crane/rear winch...
