Our complete Bad Boy tractor reviews weigh the pros and cons. Discover why their Yanmar engines and great prices are so appealing, but also learn about the significant risks, like a weak dealer network and long-term support concerns.
Scissor lift sizes: height, width, and capacity explained. A 19 ft scissor lift does not stop at 19 ft. You can reach about 25 ft from it. A 32 ft one gets you about 38 ft. Width often causes more problems than height. Indoor electric lifts are around 30 inches wide. Rough-terrain models can exceed 90 inches. Capacity varies too. Some carry 500 lb. Others carry 2,500 lb or more. Ground conditions also matter. Smooth concrete works with slab lifts. Gravel or mud needs rough terrain.
A Briggs and Stratton oil filter cross-reference chart can help save time and money on finding the right oil filter equivalents.

At FridayParts, you can explore a vast selection of quality replacement oil filters for various brands that are well-compatible with your heavy-duty machinery.
John Deere battery: a complete guide. Choosing the right John Deere battery starts with the specs on the old unit. Voltage is usually 12V. Group size is often U1 for lawn and garden equipment. CCA rating affects cold starting. Terminal type must match the cable ends. Battery tray size determines whether the case fits. Battery location is another factor. On most riding mowers, the battery is under the hood. On zero-turn mowers, it sits behind the seat. On Gators, check under the seat or behind a service cover. A secure hold-down and clean terminals help the battery last longer. Use a maintainer during off-season storage.
Choosing the right implement requires understanding 3-point hitch dimensions. This guide covers hitch categories, pin diameters, and lower link spacing for Cat 1 and Cat 2, helping you avoid common mistakes and ensure a safe fit.
Confused by tractor transmissions? A shuttle shift allows for rapid forward and reverse changes, ideal for loader work. This guide explains the difference between a synchro and power shuttle and compares it to an HST.
Tractor alternator buying guide: how to choose the right replacement for heavy equipment. Need a tractor alternator? Start by confirming the real problem. A dead battery does not always mean a bad alternator. Check the battery, belt tension, cables, grounds, and regulator before ordering. Fit comes first. Output comes second. Price comes after that. Match the OE part number, voltage, amp rating, mounting style, pulley type, and plug style. A basic tractor with lights needs less output than a loader tractor with extra work lights, cab fans, and monitors. Higher output has limits. Belt grip, wire size, and battery health all affect charging performance. Buy for your work conditions, not just the checkout price.
The ultimate buying guide for skid steer attachment. Buying the skid steer loader is just the first check you write. The harder part is figuring out which skid steer attachment to buy first, which one pays for itself fastest, and how to keep from frying an expensive hydraulic motor on day one. Pallet forks and a trailer hitch usually deliver the fastest ROI. They get used almost every day for unloading, moving materials, and repositioning trailers. A grapple attachment is next for land clearing and debris work. An auger pays off fast for fencing and planting. Avoid the most expensive mistake: standard flow versus high flow mismatch. Underpowering causes poor performance. Overpowering can destroy a hydraulic motor within minutes. Buy the tool that solves the most frequent task first.
Pull out your old Massey Ferguson and it struggles to start? Confirmed it’s a poor battery but have no idea what size your tractor needs? In this guide, we’ll walk you through the Massey Ferguson tractor battery size chart and how you can maintain your battery for extended service life.
Flail mower for compact tractor: HP and blade guide. Looking for a flail mower for a compact tractor? Match the mower to your real workload, not the widest option on paper. A 62 inch mower on a 19 PTO HP tractor works for grass and light weeds. It struggles in wet or dense growth. Y blades are better for routine mowing. They cut cleanly and put less strain on the PTO. Hammer blades are tougher, but they need more power and leave a rougher cut. Hydraulic side shift sounds useful, but it adds weight and side load. For open field mowing, skip it. For fence lines and ditches, consider it. Choose based on what you mow most often.
Considering an LS tractor? Our in-depth LS tractor reviews explore why they’re popular. We cover their value, strong performance, and impressive standard features, while also addressing key drawbacks like the smaller dealer network.
John Deere 4020 specs and oil capacity guide. Looking for John Deere 4020 specs for service or parts? This guide puts the key numbers first: 101.3 engine HP, 95.83 PTO HP, 8,225–9,560 lb weight range, and 34-gallon fuel capacity. But engine oil capacity varies by version—early diesel uses 8 quarts, late diesel uses 12 quarts. Gasoline and LP versions have different capacities too. Hydraulic capacity depends on transmission: Syncro-Range holds 10 gallons, Power Shift holds 12. Production changes from 1963 to 1972 mean serial number, engine type, and transmission all matter before you fill or order. Check the version first—then check the specs. That order prevents mix-ups with fluid capacities and part numbers.
