Good evening Diane, 3 1/2 acres of grass is a very large yard, I'd sure enjoy having that much grass to maintain...... Besides aerating my yard every fall, I use a use a cool season grass mixed for the Midwest. I buy it at a local feed store and it doesn't have any "brand" name you'd recognize. I always start the Spring off with a feeding of 13-13-13 and a application of Morganite. Thanks for the question. Have a great upcoming weekend. - Bill

Good question, if your yard gets at least 5 hrs of sun, use full sun blend, if not, use a shady mix. Remember shade seed will grow in full sun. At the cost of seed use a shade seed when in doubt. Contact me anytime. I’ll put Maine on my viewers map.

[@erdricksword3684]

Great video! Advice would be to increase your speed when running a disc. We run the fields after the 2 bottom in the fall with the disc in the spring in 3rd gear with 1750 rpm on an old naa. It's like swinging an axe, the faster the speed the more the impact

[@mickey17y]

Hi Bill, The cylinder itself was $210. I can't find the installed price. I included it when I bought the tractor and I believe the dealer included the installation with the purchase. I do have the additional ports in the back. After watching your videos with the Bonecrusher I ordered one a couple of weeks ago. I'm sure it's not a good as a hydraulic grapple but it's certainly priced at a point that I can justify it for a few things I want to do. I also sold my box blade and purchase a landplane after watching the great work you are able to do with yours. You commented during your video that the rocks you were unearthing would damage a tiller. I have a JD 655 tiller that is built like a tank. I have hit plenty of rocks that are the size of a baseball and it has not done any damage to the tiller. My interest in the disc is for the field around my business. I've got five or six acres that I bush hog twice a year and it very rough. I've used the tiller on a couple of the roughest spots but it takes a long time. I'd really like to disc the whole thing. Thanks again and stay safe

[@billburkhart]

mickey17y Thanks for the additional information, the top link cost seems reasonable. Your opinion on the brush crusher is spot on, the cost of that has allowed me to purchase additional implements

[@tycanavan3705]

Great Video Bill, I think the 6' will probably be better for the 2038 if you only use it on the 38 but if you plan on one for both maybe the 4'er would be best. If you can get your dealer to add the Duel rear SCV's, you can go to Tractor Supply and buy the hydraulic top link thru them, about $300 with hoses. I tried to get it from JD but they don't have them for the 2 series( 3 series and up ). Any ?'s just PM me thru FB and I will try to answer any ?'s on which kind to get. Have a good day!!!

[@billburkhart]

It’s 16 years old and I have not had to replace a bearing yet. Either way, it is a pain to change the bearings. It’s something that I prefer to do as least as possible.
