    Right next to the weld, probably a wee bit of carbon in the steel.

    I made a VERY expensive WHOOPS this morning. Clearing out an area for old bark and wood to be piled. Think the cylinder got overextended or something...:headbang::headbang:...:hair::hair::hair:
    Should have quit 10 minutes earlier...:picard::picard::picard:... 0827221138.jpg

    At least the warehouse has 1 in stock and I can change it myself...
    I would fire me, but then wouldn't have anyone to do the heavy work...

    Gotta be very careful back dragging.
    If you imaginary follow the load while dragging backwards with the cylinders at close to their longest position...
    usually with a good part of the tractors weight on the tip of the bucket...
    Your not the first Jeff :thumbs:

    Never a good time for that to happen! Especially on a Saturday morning!

    I had the grapple on it, which sticks out farther, too. When we converted it to QA from pin on, the QA adapter doesn't hit the bucket stops that were welded on the boom. That will be fixed very quickly.

    Anyone need a wiper fluid cap for a 2017 Mustang? I was going to keep the whole car, but they called a wrecker and hauled it away. Hard to see, but there is a nice big rock under his front end that came along as he exited the pasture by way of the driveway retaining wall. Not under the influence, not a teenager, just stupid.
