Hey LandPride are you watching… Great idea Mitch, something LandPride should consider. I think you’re right, the square bar would be better but what you have is much better than the clips. Have a great one 👍🏻🙋🏼♂️🙂🍻🌞
Thanks Luc👍 when I went to the store they didn’t have it so I went with round bar. I may have to do a Ross washer upgrade when I get a chance😁👍🚜💨💡🙋🏻♂️
Love it, Mitch! Those clips are a pain. Man, you got the goods! Porta-band, acetylene torch, and even a paint booth! Great tips throughout. Keep it up and you’ll have thousands of subscribers soon. 👍
Thanks Ed👍 I hope so I am ready 😁 Ross gave me a idea 💡 so I will be doing a follow up video to update the upgrade😂Thanks for the positive thoughts 😁👍🚜💨💡
Nice job Mitch...good content, good edits...top notch! Certainly makes the box blade more user friendly and easier to adjust. As you know, those clips are the reason I didn't go with the Land Pride. I would also think that if you find you have too much rattle in the teeth you could use some square bar to take the play out...you know...for more content! 😉😎👍 You're crushing it Mitch...hope you make that November goal!
Thanks Chris 👍 the day I went to the store I was looking for square bar but they did not have any so this had to do. Your right it’s not over yet I am getting good feedback from people like you 😁 plus Ross on the land gave me a idea 💡 so looks like I am making another update to the upgrade video and some testing. Have a great day 🚜💨💡😁👍
Great idea Macgyver Mitch ! You could probably get a patent on those ? Never seen anything like them ? Good luck on 1K viewers You can do it ! Thanks for sharing
Thanks Phil 👍 I have another idea 💡 to make it better that Ross on the land suggested. So we are going to put it to the test!!! I don’t know why I didn’t do this sooner stay turned for the follow up video 🚜💨💡😂👍
Hi... great video... for my drill press chuck key....I picked up a retractable key chain, the one that would clip to your waist belt...drilled a hole in the chuck key handle, looped the key chain through the hole in the chuck key handle... tie wrapped it to the drill press shaft, tucked up under the motor.... pull to use... When I need it for other drills I can just slide it up to remove from the tie wrap.... replace when done....
I wish I could clam that one but I got that idea from the 1920-30s??? Popular Mechanic “Do it your self”encyclopedia It’s a hand me down from my grandfather.
Mitch, I am not sure what your regular job is but, I hope you are in the maintenance department or fabrication department. You are the person I was looking for to support the process when I worked. Keep up with the improvements!
Thanks Frank👍 I actually have been driving a Ready Mix Concrete Truck for 24 years but have always did side jobs for extra toy money😂 I have a long list of different skills. A result of a lot of windshield time and a overactive brain😂 have a great weekend 😁👍🚜💨💡
Fantastic idea ! Those clips are terrible. For the chuck I put a small magnet up on the side of the drill press. The chuck stays in the same place all time with easy access. Ken b2601
Thanks 👍 Ken I like your magnet 🧲 idea because I already have one!! So I can use the magnet for cleaning and now chunk key storage 😁 I thought the pins were done but Ross on the land gave me another idea 💡 to make it better going to do a follow up video to test and update the upgrade 😉 Have a good one 🚜💨💡😁👍
GREAT VIDEO Mitch. Awesome music too. I think a lot of people will use this idea. I don't have a box blade yet but when I do this will be the first thing I do. Keep up the great work bud. Take care and all the best.
Awesome idea Mitch, I hate the spring clips on my Box blade. They always seem to fly off and I end up having to hunt them down. I’m definitely doing this thanks
How's she goin'? Nice mod and a lot better way to hold the scarifier in place. I like the lanyard add as well. That'll be handy!!! Nice job!!! Take care!!!
Thanks Mike 👍 Ross on the land gave me a little idea 💡 to make the pins better so I will be doing a follow up video. I use the box blade today and it works great 👍 I am happy it is so much quicker than before. I like putting lanyards on all of the little things that can get lost. I have to buy separate items but when I need it they are ready to go. Thanks again Mike have a great week 🚜💨💡😁👍
A little piece of sponge or foam in between the clips would work just as well and be cheaper too. For the shavings, I use a old zip lock bag or old used paper towel.
This year has been a bad year for tractor/implement/attachment dealers. I got my tractor last month, and they didn't have the Land Pride box blade in stock and no idea when they'd get it. They got a different brand and after seeing how those rippers are held in on the Land Pride, I'm glad they didn't have one in stock. The box blade they got for me has pins that go through the rippers and through slots in the cross tube to hold them in place, a much better and easier way of keeping them in place than those spring clips...Land Pride/Kubota should have a much better retention solution than $1 spring clips on a box blade that they charge so much for.
@@MJADoingStuff Well except for the fact I've been waiting over a month for my pallet forks and 60" mid mount mower...called a couple days ago and dealer still has no clue....really need the pallet forks, and really thinking about telling them to forget about it and I'll go with Artillian although they're about double the cost of the Land-Pride but at least maybe I'd actually see them sometime in the next week or 2. At this point it looks as though I'll never get either the pallet forks or the mower deck at the rate my dealer is going. Far from impressed...they sent someone to another state to get my tractor, you'd think they could have picked up a mower deck and pallet forks too.
@@MJADoingStuff Thinking of calling the other dealer on the other side of town and seeing if they have these items in stock. If they do I'll call my dealer and ask them why they haven't gone across town to get them from a dealer 30 miles away LOL. Then find out what we can do about getting the mower and pallet forks from the other dealer LOL. I know they have a BX2380 sitting there with a 60" non-drive over mid mount mower on it, not sure on pallet forks though HAHA!! Those pallet forks are holding up quite a few projects right now, mostly being able to put stuff back in my shop where it belongs after having to move everything in order to park the tractor inside. Need the pallet forks in order to be able to palletize and store my implements/attachments.
One option for the chuck key is to just stick a magnet on your drill belt housing and then just stick your chuck key to it. That way it's always in the same accessible place, even when the drill is in use.
Thanks Bill 😁 I already have the magnet too. I like that your idea has a place to put the key when I am using it. Thanks for checking out the video😁👍🚜💨👍
Interesting, The shanks on my landpride 1566 I believe just uses hitch pins to hold them in. Nice work here Mitch, this the content i really enjoy. Thinking outside the box and modifications that will make our equipment better. Did you get the longer top link to go with your Pats quick hitch?
Thanks 👍 I am always thinking 🤔 of ways to make it easier or better. I too enjoy modifying stuff. We used to have custom show cars in California but sold them when we moved here. I did not get the longer upper top link I have another project in mind to solve that problem coming soon 😉
That's how the A&B Equipment box blade I have retains the ripper shanks...just long hitch pins. Those lower end Landpride Box Blades should have the same setup for as much as they charge for them. Glad my dealer didn't have the Landpride box blade in stock, the off-brand one they got me is much better I think.
@@wildbill23c At the time I was looking for a 60 inch this past spring then I noticed there were none in stock so I pick this one up at a different dealer because it was available I didn’t know anything about those clips till after I bought it most of everything I own rarely stays stock anyway😁 I always get ideas or wanna try something different thanks for checking out the video 🚜💨💡😁👍
Just put the magnet in a plastic bag. When done, turning it inside out puts it all in the bag, ready to toss. Then you can still use your socks to wipe up the left over cutting oil.
@@MJADoingStuff maybe weld a small washer with a flat spot on it between the bend, and the lanyard hole so your pin doesn't rotate and fall all the way in? Other than that awesome job!
Those little clips look like a really bad idea. Your solution is pure brilliance, though. I like the magnet in a sock idea too! Nice job, Mitch! Cheers!!
@@MJADoingStuff or even just weld on some bumps, instead of a washer, just something to stop the pin from rotating and falling in. Great idea! I am going to do this mod! 👍
Anytime 👍 I have to do one more add on to the pins and some testing so stay tuned for the follow up video. Just a little fine tuning. Thanks for watching 😁👍🚜💨💡

Going to make them up at work. what was the length you made the pins ?
Thanks for checking out the video they are 3”1/2 inches from were they are bent. Hope that helps 🚜💨💡😁👍

Just purchased this same box was hesitant on this style of rippers vs. the ones with holes and pins , hows it holding up?
The box blade has been great. Even better with the new pins check out the 2nd video I made for more options on pins. Thanks for watching 😁👍🚜💨🍳
All those times you said this job stinks.....it might have been the old socks!😜
