Mornin Pat. Not to happy today. This Suzue tractor is kicking my ***..........Having a real problem tearing the differential out of the case. I got the overhaul manual yesterday from the dealer and still can't figure out how to pull the diff out. The book was written buy an idiot. All it says is "remove the ring gear carrier", but doesn't say how!!!! It has a couple of snap rings that hold it in place, but NO WAY TO GET AT THEM!

Looks like another day of frustration for me..........Oh joy........

The dealers mechanic isn't any help either. He said he's never had one apart this far.......

I had another good friend and retired mechanic take a look at it yesterday, and guess what he said............."have fun"..........sigh.........

One word.....EXPLOSIVES! That'll get it apart! I have a QA inspector on his way over, so I gotta get ready for this idiot. I'll be back in a while bud. Good luck on the tractor if I don't catch you before you head to the shop.

Are you shielded to the South well? This one blew straight up the valley.

We are at home and barely got anything. I could hear it roaring above the ridgeline but it wasn't getting down to me.

Good morning Oregon and everyone everywhere else. 32 deg, very heavy overcast, with a little imagination one can see we had a trace of snow, but no wind...........not a good day to work outside

I am very happy with my waste oil burner, and have more than enough oil to last the rest of the winter/spring. Now I'm saving up for next year!
