I can break the grade 3 bolts just on hitting 5 or 6 fireant mounds in august. So I suspect your using harden black or even harder gold bolts if they are not breaking. When we shred mesquite pastures we start out with a minimum of a bag of 10 each 1/2 bolts, 2 3/4 long with lock washers and nuts with two crescent wrenches on each tractor. Depending on the sign of the moon, almanac and stars, we may break 1 bolt in 6 days or 15 bolts in one day. We have moved up to black bolts with 3 marks and have satisfactory results as they will allow about 10 fire ant mounts or gopher mounds to go through, and still break on the bigger stumps. However by moving up to the 250 hp gear boxes with 8 inch pto clutches... means now we break a blade or two each year and twist the pto shafts pretty badly each year. The Hardy 7 foot right of way shredders are pretty hard to beat, but you have to add about 300lb to the front of the 6640 to keep the front wheels on the ground.

If it would just start when I turn the key, then I would use it more often. In addition to a bad case of old age, most of the tractor's original electrical system was simply too unreliable to keep. The main focus of this page is to show how I upgr
