The bolts that hold the sub frame on one of my loader tractors are backing out. So I turned one out , with my fingers , and much to my surprise , found the bolt covered with grease. I have less than a 1000 hrs on this tractor. I called the dealer and asked them , what the heck is going on here. Never heard of sub frames coming off tractors before. And why do they grease the bolts, instead of putting on some thing that might prevent the bolts from coming out? They told me that they would come out , remove the bolts, clean them, clean the grease out of the bolt holes with brake cleaner. Then replace the bolts with some lock tight on them , and torque them down. Sounds good. What has your exprence been with this kind of thing? Anyone have a loader sub frame coming off before? I realize that the sub frame would have to be able to be removed if the tractor needed to be split , but we can't have the loader coming off because the bolts fell out . Bruce

After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
