Garden tractor implements , attachments, DIY, overview

DIY , attachments, Front blade, rear grader blade, dirt buster , trencher. Home made
This was a John Deere I bought used about 4 years ago. It has a Kohler 16hp Engine, K62 rear axle. This used the same drive unit as the garden tractor that was a notch above this at the time. The only difference was this one doesn’t have the lugs on the tires and tires are a little smaller. The 3 point hitch has been the most useful part and has saved a lot of backbreaking work!

    That's awesome. I need a welder. I took a welding class at communuity college before I joined the Marines. I have pondered about going to welding school again just to learn for home and farm use. Redneck ingenuity is built to last, I'll take that over any Crapsman today.

    The winch on the rear has a better ratio for lifting and lowering than the front winch which could do with a reduction or just a pulley block fitted to change it to a slower more controllable adjustment. This is a great system and I like the attachments you have which are similar to what I am looking to make for my ride on mower. I am wanting to make a rear towable blade attachment for leveling area and an edge cutting blade. Great stuff... thanks for the ideas.

    How did you get the fluid in to the tires?

  • @braddegraffenreid9106

    @braddegraffenreid9106

    3 жыл бұрын

    I pulled the valve stem out. I then put the valve at the 12:00 location. You then want to let the Weight of the tractor flatten the tire, then I took a tube from the windshield washer fluid that was at a higher elevation and connected it to the valve stem. Then jack the tractor up off the ground and it will cause a vacuum that will pull the fluid in. I repeated this cycle six or seven times until it wouldn’t pull anymore in. Hopefully this helps! If you have any other questions and I can help please message me.

    just curious, if you were to replace the front plow with something like a bobcat bucket (if it weren't too heavy?), do you think it could support the weight of say a small amount of dirt? that would be amazing to have around the house tho, great engineering btw

  • @braddegraffenreid9106

    @braddegraffenreid9106

    4 жыл бұрын

    Thanks for the question. I think it would hold the weight.. I’m in the process of making a detachable clamshell bucket for the front of that to move dirt. The only issue I am worried about is the Steering will get harder. I hope in the next few weeks to have a video showing the clam shell bucket being used and I will be able to give you a better answer.
