yeah well this site has not worked well in a while. but I still use it, there is so few that use it ,that the number of bozos really does not exist so I like it in that wierd way.
i just replaced two front 8.3 x 20 tires yesterday that were looking pretty bad ,plenty of thread left but the dry rot cracks were getting concerning. The tires I got were made in India so maybe that will be a move up from China made tires,but even they lasted 21 years. Went from 6 to 8 ply tires too.
the site is kinda iffy as operating smoothness for sure, really been that way for years. but a few people that use it are pretty good as knowledge goes so I put up with the wierdness of it.
that is funny kinda, I had a tire failure also s year a rear ,I think a 8.3 x 20 ag grip ,had a external scar I guess that went thru and was also cracked internally . It made the tube being able to get punctured by something like a thorn. I lucked out and the co-op was able to save the tire by placing a internal boot over the inside crack and replacing the tube. That tractor is a 2005 ,but the tire have so much tread left I just hate to replace them just as preventive thing cause of age. But that time will come sooner or later. Just put solid tires on the skid steer ,no leaks there to worry about,but ride is stiffer for sure.
yes all you wrote is true , you did your research well. Alot of amp meters are not sensitive enough to display much of anything one way or another after start up, that is why I prefer voltmeters.
I converted mine to a volt gauge also I just put the two wires together and also used it for my hot for the voltmeter from that same connection. just come up with a good ground and a switched hot from the headlight circuit if you want the light in the gauge to work when dark.
I think it is a good move to replace the fuse holder , non conductive grease might help keep any resistance in the fuse blade connectors from happening. I keep looking at the connectors on the harness on my two tractors and wondering how long they will last . I cringe every time I have to take one apart they are getting so brittle.
well all went well with the replacement sender, did the gently bottom out and backed out two turns. This one design I guess in the insturment cluster I do not like and that is if the tach does not run the hour meter does not either. I can do without the tach but will not do with out the hour meter. bitch of the day. wait there must be others.
