Remember- your tractor is not a skidder. Using it like a skidder will destroy it unless you have it fitted with steel plate protection like the utilities use. Backing over material that sticks up can rip off your hydraulics, filters, fuel water separator, etc. BTW your clean up is looking great.
Thanks! That is a very accurate statement Lee. I think the separator drain plug was just not on tight. However I did run over something that ripped a fuel line off. That was a great learning experience of what NOT to do. :) I'm considering getting some skid plates manufactured for it though.
That box may last a year or two. I grew up on a country rd. Between accidents and unruly teens, you might want to use steel pole in concrete with a heavy steel box.
I think you're probably right. However we're on a dead end road with little to no traffic. This Is temporary though. We'll probably upgrade at some point. I like your idea of a steel pole with concrete.
Thanks Man. That was a rough week for sure! It's been a while since I've broken anything on the tractor, So I think I'm figuring stuff out. But we totally blew out our concrete forms during the pour today, but we fix it, so everything turned out well.

Ahhhh, I broke stuff while fixing broken stuff! I feel you man, so sorry.

Enjoyed the edit.
Thanks!
what a dumb place to put a filter rock thrown up by front tire break that bowl and you be in same boat maybe walk long was to get back to house
I'd have to agree. It does have a protective plate in front of it fortunately, but nothing protecting it from underneath.
The music junked another video 👎👎👎👎👎💩💩💩💩😬
Yeah. I think you're right. I've toned down the music in our latest videos.
@@DuckRiverHomestead good videos no music.
