    Winch recommendation?

    I went through three motors on my M8000 before I got a 9.5XP. I also have several 9000XP Harbor Freight winches...and for the price they can't be beat. Pair any of them with a Black Magic Brakes/Wizard Recovery Gear synthetic winch rope and some soft shackles and you'll be set. -Mac

    Basket's Build

    Get yourself some heated gloves. I actually bought this pair off Amazon in Moab and had them delivered to our campground. Made the topless drive home survivable when it was 38 in the morning topless on the freeway. -Mac

    231J transfer shifter wont go to 2WD, stuck in neutral

    Just follow the instructions for installing the cable shifter... it'll make sense...I think you're overthinking things. Make sure you get the nut back on that lever...and yes...you can clock that lever wrong. Look at my video above for the right position. -Mac

    New Tool Day

    Yeah my 2014 was the last BX25 to not have DPF. If I replace it, it'll be with old iron. Dealing with my local Kubota dealer has been a nightmare. I do all my own work and order my parts from Messicks. -Mac

    Powersaws - what's everyone using?

    I'm pretty terrible with species identification...but yes, definitely would agree. We had a big grand fir go down across our 150 road off 1802. Wish I had brought my tractor. Technically that's the second part... here's the fir-st. JIC. -Mac

    How to install a Ecoboost oil cooler / heater in a 4.0 and why

    Yeah I installed a glowshift pressure and temp gauge and so far have observed little change. Since my hoses leak a little I'm thinking of just removing it. I might put it back if I get HP Tuners or do some other supporting mods -Mac

    I use a 1500 lb Makita impact gun and they come right out. Rust issues? Soak them in lubricant or maybe some heat from underneath? -Mac

    Chasing a whistle / squeal (videos attached)

    Spray down each pulley in the belt system with water until the noise stops. And don't forget to check your rear driveshaft. I spent two months chasing a noise I swore was in the front axle. New u joints...needed em anyways... replaced the ring and pinion...down a few teeth... didn't fix it...
