Wow! I am confused now. I always thought that it was your eyesight that you had to worry about if'n you was getting too much. Not your back. Learn something new everyday, I guess.
What's all this have to do with an AD3 road grader. .? Cause if you get shagger's back from running a road grader, well, I dunno. Guess I can't wait to get it running. Lol. Darrel

question for you guys, ok a few questions. are most opf the industrial 3 cyl DDs the same engine? What is the cost of a running 3 cylinder detroit diesel? The reason I ask is I saw a roller, like a tired pavement roller , running, with that engine for $2000 on CL, I dont need one but was just curious.

1,500 to 2,000 lbs per acre is a respectable yield. Some may get 3,000 lbs on a field or two, but rarely would a person average more than 2K accross every acre. Darrel

Yes, sold by then hundred weight. Some go for oil, and some for bird seed. I am not sure where mine are going to go yet. I haven't contracted them anywhere. My screw up of the year was to not take a $19.35 contract offer about 3 months ago. Now they are down in the 14 dollar range. If you fire up your snow machine full blast this winter, that will drive the bird seed market up, so let er rip. But don't tell none of the other fellas that I gave you permission to do that. That'll be our little secret. Darrel

Heated shop. ..? In my dreams. Just have a slant wall quonset with no insulation or heat. And it needs a good cleaning out. Even the walking trails through it are getting cluttered. And as far as food goes; good gelbvieh beef. Darrel

Have you had a chance to check if the AD3 gearbox looks similar to the Ac 45?

At a quick glance, it looked different. What I noticed first off, was that the engine/bell housing/transmission is all bolted together on the AD3. Looks like there is a drive shaft between the bell housing and transmission on the forty-five. Darrel

There is a short drive shaft.

WHAT!  You haven't greased the u-joints yet?

It seems to be easier if you haven't got the batteries in - I haven't checked for access from below as ours is on a battery set rotation - I'm not rich enough to leave a set to expire in a rarely used machine.

I was curious on that short run of AC 45's that looked like they had straight cut gears.

Well there were those old fashioned helpers like

"Dr Skinback's Horn Provoker - one drop of provoker keeps your tool like a poker"

And another whose name escapes me at the moment that

Edit  "Sexadrine"

"Stops your peter from backing out and your back from petering out"

And in the versitility of English

Neither have direct connections to "Tickling the peter" despite your hopes -

That is stealing from the till

Hey, maybe that grader would just fit into one of them sheds that you bought. Could bring the grader down to you, put up your new shed around it, and you can put it together for me. In the mean time, I think I better get a little fix on the other road grader and get it operating. It is set up for a V plow and a SNOW wing. (Notice emphasis on SNOW). Darrel
