Important

Check out Detroit Axle next time you have to buy hub assemblies. Made in Michigan and cheap!! I haven't personally used them but a buddy of mine swears buy them.

Hub assembly for 2000 xj was $35 shipped off ebay.
 
One of the names I thought I recognized, now the question is.....Does the box get decorated:D

I need to talk to you about your beads.

Gonna have you bring me a bunch of them to harlan. I want to put them in everything, including the wienerbox.
Pretty sure it's a tire vibe I have at 40-45mph.
 
So I have been thinking about putting L.E.D. light bar(s) on the front of my planter tractor. Seems that we are always burning the midnight oil rushing to get crops in before the rain and my lights simply suck. Someone please enlighten me on what kind of projection or range these fancy fandangled L.E.D. things will do. I have seen different wattages offered as well. I need something to reach out far and bright, not necessarily really wide. I currently have (4) 55W floods on it and they are dim and suck. I was going to add a detachable light bar with 6 more of them, but not sure which way to go. I understand the draw from the batteries, but I am running 2 huge tractor batteries, so lights dont pull down that hard regardless.

Thanks in advance.

That is no doubt. I replaced most of those things on the combine last season...they were faded chalky crap. That was an expensive bill from the dealer, just to find out that I could have got them elsewhere fro about 1/4 the price.

if you want me to bring it home and have a look at it get with me. assuming it's a renix, so just do what I'm going to do with the one I'm picking up in TN.

Rockauto a complete open cooling system, ship it to my house come over for the weekend, swap cooling system and drive it home.

You're gonna end up replacing it all anyway, money saved in tow rig fuel costs pays for cooling system.

If you want to fly out to pick it up, I'm an hour from columbus, akron and cleveland airports. Akron is preferred, cleveland is the worst.
I'll be gone picking mine up the weekend of the 18th, so don't plan on that, I won't be home.

i am thinking more about this...i already have an open radiator sitting in the shop but that would only work if i was driving in. cleveland sucks, but the airport that is 3 miles from my house has $49 one way flights to cleveland right now...hmm

what is needed for the conversion on a renix? Open system bottle, radiator then hoses?

I bet a dual beam(flood and spot) would work great for you. Buddy has a 21.5" on his sdime and it's awesome for trails so I'd say 2 of the 21s or a 40 dual would work. Or 2 7-14" spots and one or two 7" floods. Should have at least one good size flood.

I'm pretty sure I can get you a dual row light in any of the standard width with a spot pattern that uses a magnet mount so they're detachable if that's what you want.

Having said that I have a 51" combo pattern in stock normal mount that will light up the world. PM if you're interested.

I like the magnetic mount idea. Drop some connectors on your tractors, or use cigarette lighter adapters if it pulls less than 15A and your tractors have them.
