I thought the calcium and other additives were to keep the tires from leaking down or getting flatspots and as a anti corrosive and was a necessity. I didn't realize it was for weight.

What is it, powered calcium?

I worked in a shop years ago and made dumbells out of tires and metal filings from the brake lathe.
My rear tires have tubes in them so as far as i know its just water. I found out they were filled when i took them off the tractor to paint the rims and they were so heavy it took 2 people to move them.
 
WTF , start a tractor thread! Dang men!
Anyway, I got 3 more T540xp's today,, no more 201's,,
Jeff :p
Hope you tractor guys have time to do tractoring instead of posting all day,,
Dang, some of you post all day long,?
Jeff :dizzy:

Unfortunately, its been a slow week. Don't worry though, I'll still manage to more than double you paycheck over the weekend. Thanks for your concern.:)
 
Palaces now, eh. Lol.

Mine is actually great on lawns. Often times plywood the bucket and chipper in, then use the same road after the big trucks are out to pick up the wood with the tractor. Not a scratch. It really isn't rocket science.:laugh:

You must have forgotten that only vet works on nice lawns. The rest of us just work in fields of mud.

don't you guys just LOVE to hate me :)


I think hate is getting confused with envy. And to hell with love, what we need is common decency.

Anyway, there is nothing but air in my tractor tires... I think... nothing came out of the valve but air... I think.

And I don't think I need or want anything in there. I have heard of calcium in tractor tires but didn't realize it was calcium chloride. Who the hell would put that in their tires!!??

And Jeff:

Going to work today. OK? I really am and not just saying that this time.

Its been tough finding the right person to help me. About a year ago I regretfully sold my Dingo and made it through the year without it. I probably didn't have one job where I really needed it.

Now with a back log of bigger trees to do, having good help for my own work, not subbing anymore and planning to put an addition on my house I bought the tractor.
 
You can do that whole trip on a dingo WITHOUT the boards my friend. Just think how much beer chuggin time that'd leave you at the end of the day ;-)

It's like you think I've never operated a dingo before. Yes you "can" do it without the plywood but I offer a bit more premium a service than your average mother sodomizing ninja.
 


And I'm oh so happy you chose that particular pic from my website. That was a rental property one of my clients owns. Think we demoed that maple, stump and all for $2650 in 5 hours. She paid with a credit card too. Crazy old Jew broad trying to get her frequent flyer miles or something.
 
My rear tires have tubes in them so as far as i know its just water. I found out they were filled when i took them off the tractor to paint the rims and they were so heavy it took 2 people to move them.

Years, and I mean YEARS, ago I help ole Stan Miller the dairy farmer change a big ass tractor tire and its coming back to me now. The calcium is a liquid, its mixed with the water so it doesn't freeze. That is probably what is in your tires.
