Fixing that 54 Inch Hydraulic Blade




As often happens, rust seized up the nuts on my large frame blade.  When I went to remove them, the studs snapped.  So whats a guy to do but take some bolts, chop off the heads and weld them on.

This is a 1946 FMC Bean Cutler I restored for my Dad for his 60th birthday.  I only missed the mark by a year.....

Narrow Ags on the 1250

I got a great deal on some ag's with rims and decided to throw them on the 1250 for tilling.  They work great and match the width of the front tires exactly.  They also hold the tractor in place when tilling due to the deep tread.  This tractor is all original except the muffler and tires and I plan to keep it that way.
