      Several years ago I posted a remedy to the 1000 Kb image/file limit.

      Choose your image that is over 1000Kb  and send it to yourself in an email. Before it is sent your operating system will ask what size you want it sent as. Simply choose anything below 1000Kb.
      Then when you receive the diminished photo in your email have it saved in your photo gallery …..always available for CTOA forums.

        David;

        Each contribution from other owners has value and I often review my own comments to remind me of work I did long ago.
        This site is important to me. Not to forget the lifetime membership I have paid………twice!!

              Amazingly  I was able to tap the Dialog Box   “CODE “section opposite “Visual” to enable me to add the Random Rants of a Ramblin Man tutorial to paste his website hyperlink.

                Nothing on this website works anymore.
                I cannot add pertinent hyperlinks to the discussion/comments.
                My attempts to contact the moderator continue to fail because the Captcha filter is dysfunctional.
                And the photos only allow 1000KB of data which eliminates 80 % of pictures for most users.
                Anyone else have these tribulations?

                  I counted just 1o fasteners to remove the front axle cover from what I call the front drive unit. Then 4 fasteners to remove the steering link and 1 castellated nut to remove the power steering cylinder.
                  And the one 5/8” hex head bolt that allows the 184.31.111-1 standing shaft  to drop out of the 183-31-112 standing shaft housing to then access the two seals.

                  The whole process is one hour or less. You will need a jack to remove  and re- install the 50 pound front drive unit.

                  well documented here;<b>random rants of a ramblin man</b>

                  Unfortunately the moderator of this web site has blocked  hyperlinks so you will have to query the  Random Rants of a ramblin man website in your browser to find his tutorial on Jinma tractor seal replacement.

                    That 23 year old rear tire was a 12 ply tire and the one it replaced was a 6 ply.
                    Don’t know the thickness of the six ply but I took a plug from the old 12 ply tire and it was .340” thick.

                      David;

                      I wanted to save this tire but there was 8 failures of varying  degrees around the tire but all between the tire lug junctions.
                      Before I broke down the tire I re-inflated the punctured inner tube and saw that those tire lug slits actually widened and exposed the inner tube and likely caused the punctured tube.
                      But driving on a flat tire pulling  a bush hog certainly didn’t help that rear tire and confused the exact reason why the tire failed.
                      Next time I will be more careful.

                        The 8 bolts on each side of my 254 Farmpro engine which is the frame that holds the engine and front  differential together were all lose. These 16 bolts are M12-1.75 and 1.5 inches long.
                        At 1400 hours and 24 years some loosening is inevitable.
                        Time to check the entire tractor.
