Gotta love it when it's something simple.

Are they both rubber? I thought it was one continuous line. I need to get up in there and get a better look.

He's checking for me, thx for the tip.

Thx. Also if anyone knows the part number or a supplier, that would be awesome. I'ld rather have a replacement on hand and swap them out than take the old one out, take it to a shop (1.5 hrs away), have a replacement made, then install.

Still chasing down leaks, weeps, and seeps. I've got what appears to be an oil leak (not fuel) from behind and near the front of the IP. I see what looks like a rubber line from the block to the bottom of the IP. Can't tell exactly where it's leaking though. Will I be able to access this...

Great tips all. Thanks.

The tractor, the truck or both?!:doh:

My plan is to do the same. I want to get everything in top mechanical shape before doing any "improvements". We do have a local tire place that does a lot of commercial and ag equipment. Might be easier to just write the check, as they say!

I do have a small Kubota tractor with a loader I could use to help manipulate them a bit. Hate to have someone find me in the driveway pinned under a tire.:roll:

Been reading and reading. I really like the look of the MRAP wheels and Peashooter's adapter plates. From what I've seen for sale, hardware, shipping, etc. I'm estimating about $3,000 (set of 6). Does that sound right for those that have done it? Do you guys get a spare or not? I've seen...

That's very helpful, thanks!

Finally after searching I came up with this thread: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?43090-Winter-Fronts-instalation&highlight=arctic+%2B+clip

Thanks very much for the offer. I think a picture, maybe with a scale, would give me an idea of what to come up with. I haven't even seen what they look like.

Hate to buy another cover just for the hardware. Anyone have a good pic or measurements of the parts I need? Is there a TM or installation manual anywhere?

Yeah, could try that. Wonder how well it willl stick, especially when it starts hitting -25F

I went through some more of the parts that came with my truck and I have a brand new winter front! It appears to have the straps and several of the spring attachments, but none of the clips to mount it. Anyone know where I can get the installation parts and instructions? With our frigid...

From other posts I gather it is 1/2" line and there is 200' of it.

http://www.greenpartstore.com/John-Deere-Lubricants.html Towards the bottom. That's what I paid at the local dealer. Wish I would have had an air or electric grease gun. Wow, my hands are sore after emptying 6 tubes of it! I took the nipple end off the grease gun. Pumped the first tube...

Checked the winch and found one side totally empty, no lube in there at all. The other side just barely had any in it. Decided to do the John Deere Corn Head grease thing. Put 3 tubes in each side. Pulled the cable out and spooled it back in a few times. Seems to work just fine. No weird...

Thanks, I have to say I am pretty confused by all the different types of connectors and what is compatible with what. Flares, nuts, feruls, oh my! The closest city with stuff like that is a several hour round trip for me. It would be nice to be able to have some connectors and hose on hand...
