    intermittent gear selector problems

    I have had a similar issue crop up with the Hi-Lo collar. I have not had it go to neutral on me just stay in hi or lo even though I activated the collar. I hear the air when I slide the collar and when I hit the clutch I don't get the click or the gear change. I have had to double pump the...

    Toolee great work and I'm sure I'm not the only one looking forward to seeing how the mower runs. Quick Q on the thumb from Titan, what size did you go with and having used it now would you go larger , smaller stay the same? Thanks

    I'm not including pictures in here as even in a self deprecating manner its almost TOO ridiculous. BUT I have since used the "DEADLY" method/maneuver to get out of two other mud hole messes completely of my own doing and since FLU farm didn't beat me to it I'm making an acronym!!! D-driving...

    Question for hydraulic Savy folks out there. 90% sure I know this is a solenoid. Is the part I have circled in red, a Solenoid? As deduced by searching the TM-5-2420-224-20-1 Page 3-316. ? This picture shows a front loader stacking valve in its entirety but I am only interested in the pieces...

    Great minds think alike!!! I had an extra strap on the boom stick through the driver side window and gave it a few tugs while trying to drive forward. I figured maybe the "Hopping" motion of the front wheels from the leverage of the boom might free things up. Then I decided that waiting a few...

    So I got off to an early start this year and the Mogs fired up with one prime from winter dormancy. Very excited about that. Only hiccup was a week later . When I went to restart Mog 1 (Battery on, key turned, throttle out and pushed starter), not so much as a click. I spent a while chasing...

    Garaging A FLU,,what do you do? STEEL garage companies experiance?

    This Gentlemen did one of the best descriptions of a 40x60 with concrete slab I have seen to date, this is what I'm planning for size. the youtube video https://youtu.be/u1gdtR-bV3M Guy is out of Texas and the best part was he put the price in the description and was nice enough to answer...

    I may be late on the scene here but just my 2 cents on the seals. I spoke to the Fox kit guy last year and he was familiar with what I would have needed if I changed the seals in the main boom cylinder last year. What ended up happening was I changed the oil over to hydraulic fluid when I...

    Garaging A FLU,,what do you do? STEEL garage companies experiance?

    Thanks for the input so far Gents. I will check out the airport idea this week and "Butler" but for now I'm going to guess that the local big steel building company built that. I spoke with there VP a few weeks ago and they do not do residential structures or know of anyone that does. Yes I...

    Garaging A FLU,,what do you do? STEEL garage companies experiance?

    Kind of tangential to this FLU419 ownership but I suppose its here or nowhere to post this question. I am building a garage hopefully this Summer, next Summer if I get sidetracked. Its to house The Mogs, tools, woodworking, my sanity etc.etc.etc. I have been trying to find a STEEL building...

    This and I'm an Off road vehicle so I can run the home heating oil at the pump. I'm told thats a bit cleaner than On road Diesel. Also I blew both spares from Mog 1 and 2 and then bought 6 Pirellis and mounted two ready to go for what I thought would be blowout number 3. I haven't had any...

    Winter Stuff!! So I was helping a buddy out till I got his plow truck Stuck! On his lawn/driveway to boot. So as it was late and dark (and I was out of ideas) I resolved to solve the issue the next morning and went home I threw the electric magnetic exterior oil pan heater on for the...

    I want to pretend I'm more than a shade tree mechanic here but I opted for refilling the denatured alcohol and setting it on winter "I" setting and 3 minutes later 4x4 and diff rock are back on line. These things are beasts!!!..☺

    More SEE work FLU farm and Another Ahab I've been keeping posted and noted the geography lessons and did the same type of research before the pond project. I got lucky with the Blue Clay to hold the water and some nice boulders or glacial erratic's to move around the property. Not quite the...

    peakbagger, did you repair the throttle linkage or is the axe handle a better alternative??? I ask that as owning a machine like this makes me open to both the wonders of German engineering, and the possibility that there are mechanical solutions I have never considered before, to problems I...

    Using my SEE for real work

    So I got the area clear and started piling the poplar and wind throw wood that was laying around into two separate piles on the border of where I thought the edges would be. I worked back from one side and tried to place rock on the border and then excavate a gradual slope. The dirt was mostly...
