RE: popup railroad out of a snowbank

Love the garden tractor and lawn mower hints. Keep sending them if it involves camping. playing with my tractors and riding mowers is my other bad habit. I now have six in running condition.

RE: Question for the tire experts

Tires harden as they age. Farmers around here prefer to buy one or two year old tires for farm equipment as they last longer. New tires are softer rubber.

RE: 1968 Buick Lesabre house Car

Looking at the engine compartment I am sure that is rear wheel drive. Front wheel drive would be nice.

RE: Trying to find a mounting pin - Cannot locate

My 1975 White Gt1650 garden tractor had 5/8 diameter pins on it's category O 3 point hitch.. But that is still too big. I would go with the suggestion of drilling bolts and using 5/32" hairpin clips for locking. 5/32" pins are common at farm supply stores and some have smaller such as 1/8 and 3/32".

RE: Heartland screws

The screws were over tightened on installation. I have done that often with aluminum screws. My big question is how are you going to handle this situation? The broken stubs won't stick out far enough to grip with anything. Drilling new holes alongside the old ones will look like h---. Maybe you could find some stainless screws with a washer head and install them right alongside the old holes. This will be an interesting post. good luck, marly.

RE: HELP ! My Hood wont open on Class C .

Tiger4X4RV your hood latch needs lubrication. Use spray white grease from WM. Lube your hood hinges at the same time. Good pictures. HelloImDavid, have someone push down on your hood when you pull the latch cable then lift. Sometimes hood latches get very dry and do not release easily. Some also get a notch worn into the bottom of the main latch.. The hook shape at the top is the safety catch. The main latch can be seen farther back and is slightly rusty in the last picture. The release cable is on the lower right in the picture and is round and black.

RE: Has anyone ever had a cat do this

Trust the cat, it probably has more common sense than your mil. I also am a diabetic and really wish someone else would take over my food needs. I have a small growth on my right index finger knuckle from ripping it open repeatedly. We had a male cat that would sniff out that growth and bite at it as if it knew something was wrong. The growth is gradually decreasing as I no longer do much mechanical work. The cat was euthanised as his kidney disease was slowly doing him in. I miss the cat, he was my buddy.

RE: UPDATE Using Copper Water Pipe and Frame Ampacity Test

As strange as it may seem electricity is carried or transmitted on the surface of the conductor. So a larger diameter or more strands of wire can conduct more voltage and/or amperage. The 3/4 inch copper tube should have a very large capacity. Many older power houses are wired with inch and a half, 2 inch and 3 inch copper tube carrying thousands of volts.

RE: When a breakdown occurs make lemonade.

Not due to a breakdown but we spent some time at Cottonwood Recreation area near Merriman,Ne. One evening we drove into town for a change from campground food. We spent about five hours visiting with the rural mailcarrier/bartender/cook/waitress and local cowboys and native americans. Before we left had everyone in the place sitting around the same table. We learned a lot about the Nebraska sandhills and far out of town living. Mailboxes are 50 gallon drums laying on there side as they do so much mail order business..Even got an invitation to bring our trailer to nearby ranchers lake to finish our time. We didn't go as we had to return to eastern Nebr, and work.
