Have this 06 silverado 5.3 4x4 that i purchased when 1 year old. It has been a good pickup but the other day it would not shift from 2nd on to 3rd or 4th. So it has been sitting. I have a need for this unit and went to the local transmission replair shop and they said just as well overhaul it. I said several years ago i had one and it quit shifting and took it to them and they said i had selonoids go bad and they put new seloniond in and it ran for as long as i had it. Now they don't want to do that saying it will not fix this one. They said just fork out the $3400 and have it overhauled and if selonoids fix it something else is causing it. We can put the selonoids in our self but wanted to buy the new ones there. I feel that they do not want to do anything but overhaul them completely. I think the selonoids are worth a try. What do you all think. I have other pickups to take out of town and on long trips. Please give me your OPINIONS PLEASE Thank You

it is so dry and the bee raisers are just putting bees out and they will not drink the lake water. instead they have overtaken my dog water bowls I really do not know what to do but they are dying of thirst. I have the following ideas and see if anything works. First i plan to call the grower tomorrow and tell him to try and do something and SOON Second i have heard they do not like garlic but it is quite a ordeal to cut up and put garlic out. plus will the dogs drink it Third i have some Counter and Aztec that i could sprinkle around the water bowl but still concerned about my dogs. 4 call spray man and see if he has any ideas Please if you know how to help me i would appreciate it

Can't tell me he doesn't have his eyes open and looking. Think he is looking for one but kind of taking his time. He won't ever talk to the ones i mention to him.

need to replace the TA direct drive clutch disk on 560. i read somewhere a man can remove hydraulic pump and relpace it from the bottom like they used to on a farmall M, Has anyone done it this way? The cover above the TA is bulged up and i am hoping to put a new disk in. Appreciate your feedback

what do the fittings look like and where are they obtainable? Would appreciate it. Reason i purchsed this pump is price and supplier/ manifacturer is super helpful

purchased a new hand pump for my 766 as rebuilding them is not lasting. The line hookups are in different locations and i am having problems with a couple lines being long enough. Benig steel lines has anyone encountered this or what have they done. If i knew it was going to be this difficult i would have taken the loader off the tractor first.

Fresh new sounds like big iron and ritchie brothers are now going to be in the same family. going to be interesting it is on the internet too much to print out

My 560 finally started a few years ago after we pulled it a couple miles behind the pickup and i had to think it had air in it and finally we got it bled out. But bought a old 806 a few years ago from a guy who put a bunch of starting fulid thru it and i got a used pump from a salvage yard and it ran fine

Used to have a white cab 1466 with those same kind of wheels with 23.1 X 34's i sold it on ebay and it went to South Padre Island TX and they were fairly scarce wheels and rim setups because while i had it listed for sale i had 2 guys email me wanting to buy just the rims wheels and tires. I never answered them back.

our time changed last night. Article in little flyer paper warning to watch out for the wildlife since the time changed. I did not know they changed their clocks also. but at nearly 74 years old this time change is about as hard on a person as any hangover i ever had.

we have had a nice small rural town her for over a century but in the past few decades there have been several stumbeling blocks. In 1980 we lost the bid on Iown Beef to Holcomb Kansas (mainly because of water issues) but a few fellows invested heavily on it and went under. Then in 1981 came the high interest and low commodity prices and the farming industry got tough and several banks in the area went under but none in this town. About the same time Neoplan (a German bus plant) came in and the city and county gave them land and free taxes for a certain time. They were very very slow at paying their vendors for supplies and materials and they eventually they closed up in 2006 so there was no industry to speak of besides a few smaller manufacturing plants and some of them have such close. Things were pretty good but as we all get old the city fathers were all getting old and all are gone now and the town council runs this town with citizens who now stand in line on Fridays for a paycheck. One guy has a business and employees several people, Another has a business but does not employee many workers. Everyone else is waiting on a paycheck. They recently purchased a 50 year old car dealership building that has all kinds of issues as now we need another fire department and police station in tn. his town so this building is where it will be. The floor up is not strong enough for fire trucks and it will take major re working. Every time there is a council meeting all concil votes the same. The mayor has one of his employees in his business running for council and his brother in law as well. This looks like a stacked deck to me. The local Safeway is closing and 50 workers are being un employeed. But they think this town will grow to 20,000 in the next few years while it was 8879 in 2000 and presently 7641 in 2024 i just do not see how this town is going to grow much with no descent airport for 100 miles and 200 from DIA. It will suprise me if the town does not loose popluation rather than grow. I just wanted to say my 10 cents worth as i feel eventually the town will be broke. The Farmers are having a very tough year and there will not be excess money to spend here

they built the 60 B in 1990 or so the local Case IH dealer was selling them but they were a little crude. One salesman took a new one to a customer he sold one to and this guy took a tape measure and it was not square in the bed. He refused it and got another one. One guy had the wheel bearings go out on one wheel first day from not being packed, another guy his 60 B had very little paint on it and in 2 years it was rust color. No electric clutch just a belt tightning method. The big drive pully to the flail was a 2 piece pully like on a air compressor. I was running a Hesston 60B and had decided to go to the big baler or i would of purchased one.

Damn Phones Not in schools but i had a boy working for me several years ago running a rake doing some custom baleing and the farmer said to not go past this one edge of the milo. I told him and he started down the field playing a game on his phone and he ran right into the irrigation water and buried the 7210 and Darf rake. I was so darn mad i said walk to the house and get the pickup and a couple chains and i would keep baleing single windrows. He starts walking the mile and in about 5 minutes here comes his mom. He called her for a ride. With these phones there is not much you can do with some of these darn kids. When i was in high school 60 years ago in ag if the teacher caught you chewing (there was only 1 way down) Those phones need to be put in a trap thrower after 2 or 3 times caught and slung out in a field of weeds head high and give them something to do (go find your phone)

A really good chance the 400 i am trying to get to running is not going to work without lots of LP Carbuetor work. Tin and fuel tank is hard to find unless i drive a couple hundred miles. I am thinking of putting a fill bung on the top of the tank and a sedimate bult and fuel valve on the bottom and a gasoline carbuetor. I am not afraid to remove valves from tank and let air out for a few days and welding in a fill bung. Will this work? Has anyone ever tried this. Am i crazy for attempting this? Thank You
