Default Need to load your tires for winter?

Menards has a sale on windshield washer fluid for $.68 a gallon. There is a limit of 12 so take those out to the truck and go back in for more. Maybe take the wife? I think it will take 7-8 gallons to fill one 23x10.5x12.http://www.menards.com/weeklyAd.do

I always stock up when I see it for sale. I've bought them for as little as .99cents a gallon. Seems that the anti-freeze stuff in the last 2 years has started to become exploited & i've seem it as high as $1.69 to $1.99 a gallon.

Heck I can stack away 15 gal., of the stuff with NO PROBLEM.

Nice find,

Nik


+ 32deg. No Good! Well not for Winter that is.

Default tires

Tire bong, I lost mine in a move. Ot was a 4 ft loong PVC pipe with a cap on the bottom I drilled and taped to hook up a fitting for the hose (I used a hose off a can of fix a flat so I could screw it on the valve stem) On the top I used a clean out fitting to fill it with fluid. and a steel valve stem toward the top to hook my locking tire chuck to. Used the smallest setting on the regulator off the air compressor. Hook up the tire, fill the bong hook up the air and pump the fluid in. gotta let it burp a few times.

i use a hand pump garden sprayer put drilled a hole on top and put a valve stem in. so all you do is fill up the sprayer, slide the hose on the tractor valve stem, then blast the sprayer valve stem with the air hose.

anyone ever used one of those small rotary pumps that goes on a cordless drill? Harbor Freight has them for around $12 all the time. When I filled my All Trails using "gravity" it took about 2.5 hours, long hours.....

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
