    GUYFANG IS LOCKED OUT OF WHAT KIND OF MUSIC ?

    I don't have a message? The music thread was moved into the mess hall since it isn't in any way related to any topics for conversations. (There was a few other moved there today as well)

    40K are you kidding me??

    You probably don't want to look at the prices of any vehicle these days. Especially used ones.

    40K are you kidding me??

    I don't really attribute it to supply/demand. I believe it's more to do with the rampant inflation at hand. EVERYTHING is more expensive these days, by a lot... I probably should up my insurance on the fleet now as well.

    Introducing Smokey

    Man, looking back at the dates. That was 3 days prior to the "Highway of death" in Kuwait.

    Introducing Smokey

    Today my youngest son found this on the inside roof of the cab. Anyone happen to know him? This also explains the sand @Spot_ll .

    Massey Ferguson 40 tractor

    No I haven't yet. But I did manage to pick it up today. So yet another MV in the fleet. Headed out with the M1008 with a trailer to pick it up. And stopped by a store for my son along the way. The trip was only about 40 minutes there and 40 back. Uneventful for the most part. That is...

    You shouldn't make fun of @steelsoldiers like that.

    adiabetic 5 ton truck

    I believe I've heard that as well. If memory serves it hasn't been ran either since there's no replacement parts. (I might be wrong, but I want to say that was mentioned)

    Massey Ferguson 40 tractor

    Digging deeper into this, it looks like the loader/backhoe uses this same transmission. https://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/threads/mf-40-pto.244629/ And given the post over there, it looks like it would only work while moving for the 3pt lift. I'm interested in it for the military aspect of...

    Massey Ferguson 40 tractor

    I went and looked at it this afternoon. I actually own a MF 40 industrial tractor. There's a lot of similarity between them. But the transmission is the big difference. There's a torque converter where the clutch would be. And the peddles are completely different/wrong side. There's...

    Massey Ferguson 40 tractor

    Hoping someone might know something about these tractors. I see there is no pto shaft or lever. But the hydraulic controls are there. The lift arms are not installed, and it feels like it's not connected to the hydraulic cylinder. But I'm clueless if there's a hydraulic pump. If there isn't one...

    Wood chassis/frame shims

    Sort of related, but not exactly. I've used oak to shim/level the lathes and mills in my shop. (The concrete is a slope and no way smooth) While they're not subjected to the same amount of abuse, they certainly have thousands of pounds on them. And honestly they're subjected to water and oil...

    Developing the "multifuel" into a tractor engine

    I know Oliver used the same (or very similar) engine in a few tractors. I think White did as well

    Everything is gone from the govplanet account.

    Trying to steer this back into topic because it's starting to creep again. I can see the covid-19 being an excuse still. But not from a infection/precaution standpoint. More from the no one to work perspective. MANY small mom and pop businesses out here where I live (in the middle of...
