I would love to see a video for DC Bachman switches using Bachman DC Controller and Bachman DC Switches. Bachman has the basic controller and also a separate unit for DC switches that can be used just for the switches. Being new I am a bit confused. I have the Durango Silverton set and the controller with that set does not work for switches. I also have a Bachman Track pack and I think I have to either purchase another basic controller that allows adding the switches or a separate unit for the switches. Not sure.

Yours is the first video that I've seen that is critical of this product, but the video reflects many of the same problems that I have had with my Pat's Easy Change system. I have the Category 2 version, installed a couple of years ago, on a John Deere 5065 tractor, and use it only with a 7-foot Deere MX7 rotary cutter. I carefully installed and leveled the hook assemblies according to the instructions, but they both tilted quite a bit when the rotary cutter was attached and lifted. The four adjustment bolts on each hook housing worked loose fairly quickly, and will still not maintain position. I have not damaged the spreader bar, but I have experienced the problems that you had with a broken u-bolt and with the "special" washers and the retaining pins popping off one side and then the other. It's never good to look back and see the cutter deck dragging the ground on one side, like a bird with a broken wing. My MX7 rotary cutter is pretty heavy, and our pastures are a little rough, so it may be that there is just too much stress on these components. Maybe the Pat's system is better suited to lighter duty, and may work much better on tractors and implements that are smaller and lighter in weight. I just know that, for me, it has not worked nearly as well as I had hoped.

Jerseys are the best kind of cows ❤

I have this mower and have had nothing but problems with it. After about 1/3 acre of mowing all the bolts get loose and I have to find all the parts in my hay field. Have spent an additional $400 buying blade guards. It seems to vibrate excessively. Do you have any issues with bolts and blade bars breaking? I’m about to fix it for the last time and sell it.

You stole that tractor. I paid $3,500⁰⁰ for mine it doesn't have the one point, but came with the under belly cultivators , and side dressor. I always wanted to find a fast hitch with all the impliments. Mine needs new back tires as well. I live in GA. , and drove to KY to get mine. For whatever reason all the number series cultivision models close to me have been mistreated. Super A's are plentiful, and in decent shape , but any number series has live a RUFF life.

I was a mechanic at a Mahindra dealership. The higher end actual made by Mahindra tractors are not bad .the rest i would avoid. Especially if you want a tiller .the pto cluthes are way undersized and cant handle the abuse from a tiller .Definitely never put 1 on a max .

The only problem with them is that they are a under power for their size.

People who don't know Mitsubishi is 56%owned by Mahindra

The reason they stopped making them was because of the Cast Iron case not being produced anymore. The actual hydrostatic pump is a Hydro Gear BDU10L-225 which is made in the USA. The reason it doesnt have hydraulics is because they dont have the pump ported for hydraulics. But the actual Pump inside the cast iron final drive is around 417 ftlbs of torque continuous to the ground. I think its disappointing for cub cadet to be ruined by stanley black n decker.

Too small to do anything but mow or tow a little

Would you let someone drive your tractor if they tell you if they tear something they want tell you and he did just that.

This all sucks as I just ordered one of these quick hitches. I was initially unhappy about the bushings needed to use the hitch properly which cost $60 per implement and I have 4 implements to use this on. Guess I will just go back to Pat's quick hitch. Thanks for posting all of this.

My Dad bought a 1947 Farmall Cub right after the war . It came from the factory with 3 different brands of tires on it.

I’ve got the Transylvania Express, End of the Line Express, Hallows Eve Limited and the Fast Fright but not the peanuts Halloween one. There’s a couple on eBay I may have to see about adding it to the Halloween collection.

Where are you located? I will give you 20$ for them.

It's a pretty good way to get started right away in taking advantage of DCC model railroading. I use an E-Z Command unit on my 11x8 L-shaped HO-scale layout with amp booster, and it works very nicely with my decoder-equipped locomotives (a mix of Bachmann DCC on board and TCS decoders in my fleet). My E-Z Command unit I bought in 2014 came with a decoder-equipped BNSF GP40 locomotive, and it was great for upgrading my existing layout from analog to DCC.

Great to see the JD roto-tiller brochure. I still have my dad's tiller, and it's been stored inside all these years. I used it 3 yrs ago, and it still runs great. That old Tecumseh engine is a good one. Does anyone know what years those were in production?

Do you still have the 47 cub? If you sold all the cubs I'm gonna miss those videos

We had an old kicker hay tedder that was originally horse drawn that wr used up until about 2001.

I love those sickle mowers. Best best.

i would go with a john deere still tho because the older john deere mowers easily beat the living time then a cub cedet

Was the beater bar/mixing bar in the spreader?

If you look at the row crop 630/730 tractors, they share some of the updates with the 3010/4010. Mainly the rear fenders and the more modern steering console/dash panel

Nice video

Why don't you use your cubs ? They are built to last far stronger than those garden tractors.

"Bummer" is perjorative. I don't like it. My orphan lambs are all, each and every one, wonderful and GORGEOUS !!

You make it sound like your JD is much better than your Mahindra , that is your opinion & you really didn't use the JD Much , if you did .

Converting them into all-wheel pickup is an easy and convenient way of improving the running. You can easily find wrecked Mehano's locos (becouse Mehano made those GP18s) with the same truck types and use the original pickups, two pieces of wires to solder the contacts and enjoy the improvement. Take a look at my videos, all the GP18 in them are of that era and all of them have the conversion to 8-wheel pickup with original parts, all running very smoothly. 😉

WOW! That's a very fair price. If I had the budget for it I'd be headin your way. I used a neighbors 70s Cub with a 60" woods deck to mow my lawn and hers for several years. They're great little tractors.

I did the same thing. I got brochures of ever model ever time we picked up our parts. I’d sit a dream about daddy buying me a new tractor. Wonderful memories we made together. I sure do miss daddy every single day.

Tom, I hope you see this and can get back to me. I am late subscribing and missed seeing this Cub while you owned it. I really like the way you painted it, red with white hood and grill cowling. My question is though, could the larger 140 size steering wheel work on this model Cub? Would be good if it could!

Hello Tom, I bought the same mower, but it does not have a hydraulic lifting cylinder. I want to install such a hydraulic cylinder myself, could you tell me the dimensions of the hydraulic cylinder?

Are these plug and play on EZ Track? Or do I have to wire my track up like i would have to with NCE powercab?

Neighbor laughed at my 154 loboy project she got a new Troy-Bilt right as I got mine home. Right out the gate it was throwing it's PTO belt. Mowed her lawn to lolz. Now there considering an antique tractor as I painted mine.

Have you used this for blowing snow? Couple of questions for you if you have. Bill

We only used the shields for really small corn or fragile vegetables. My dad got a set of rolling shields from a newer cultivator and adapted them onto the Oliver 66 that he cultivates his field corn with. Those work much better

Mahindra has a life expectancy of about 90 days

When I put my trains on the dining room table I am banished! I always like the operating back up.light on the switcher tenders. Very necessary for the safety of crews at night! The boom of a crane car could also be put over a flat car. The whistle is neat! The late 80's and 90' were the kughn era, himself an avid Lionel collector. Believe it or not the cars for the Lionel auto carriers were not models of actual production cars. Had they been Lionel would have had to get permission for the use and resale of the auto image.

What? Couldn't get past the poor emaciated dog on a chain in the background. Treat your animals better there tractor man.

Great and thoughtful review. Note, Mahindra tapers its bucket so all material will exit. Squared sides tend to hold moist materials.

Thank you so much!

Hey mr. Tom. Good video. That super clean is some good stuff. Good to have around. Hope everything is going good up your way. Take care👍

My uncle had one of the first Cub Cadets I ever saw. It was one of the early 60s models and was built like a tank.

I just bought a 1955 Cub with a fast hitch for my wife so now i need to check out all the cub videos

Chicken nuggets or chicken patties

I have a lawn business and switch implements often. Before I put the Pats on it was a total pain in the ass. I've been using the Pats system for about 4 years and would never go back. Not sure why this dude is so pissy. Lol

I've got a 2030 that has foreign letters on the tach and tires that were made in Turkey. Can't find anything about it.

Hello nice you are getting the nice weather and hauling manure in short sleeves.And to think you just got snow .This video brings lot of memories as I see you fixing the chain I remember that very day my Dad did the very same thing .And your spreader looks the same do you know what year yours is? Thank you for your farming adventures some are like reliving my child hood 🤔❤️

Hi! I enjoyed seeing you spread some manure. I have an old International 200 that I spread sheep manure on my hay fields last year. Pulled it with my Mahindra Max 26 xl shuttle. Loaded it with my Mahindra 1626 shuttle. So far I haven't had to repair anything.
