The JD deck stands will be available soon. Go ahead and order. Mudd’s has the necessary supplies…he just needs to assemble. Some comments are being deleted automatically. Not sure why…but I am not deleting them!
Tim, you might mention that Mudds Customs has a disclaimer that the JD Deck Stands will not work on the 2020/21 54D, which is what I have. I bought a set and had to do some modification. I’ll try posting a picture on your Facebook page.
The steel attachment pieces on the heat guns are not a gimmick, and i have used them on aircraft before. They really do focus the heat right where you need it.
Tim, those little deflectors work really well for working with heat shrink connectors. I used to work on wire harnesses and these connectors work really well. I think DeWalt makes a heat gun with these pieces sold with it. They're definitely worth buying if you need to repair wires on you tractor or other machines as well.
I have peanut butter jars and Mayo jars hanging on the ceiling of my shop. I just screwed the lid to the rafters and fill them with whatever bolts I use. Plus tons of other stuff. They are free and upcycled, plus they don't take up wall space. You can see through them and label them so if empty you can stop at the hardware store to refill. 👍👍
Mine just came today. Fantastic company, fantastic add-on. This basic model is listed now as discontinued, but there are many new options. The old saying - God don’t make no junk also applies Mudd’s stuff.
Just heard you talking about magnets to label your bins. My wife is a retired teacher and we found magnetic floor vent covers work great. You can cut them to size. The white side can be written on with permanent maker. She was a first grade and made word walls with them.
I found the strap to load calculation interesting. I've always used straps at each end that add up to more than the load since when accelerating or slowing only one end is under tension.
That is not acceptable. The simplification I made in the calculation only works with 4 straps. Check into the FMCSA calculations to be sure. I do not claim to be an expert.
I'd still check the FMCSA green book but any wheeled or tracked vehicle over a certain weight requires 4 corner securement. I've got a comment describing how direct vs indirect securement works.
I have the ISO Tunes Pro at work. Love them. Super long battery life (mine last about 16 hours on one charge) and they work as hearing protection when using power tools. I can vary the amount of hearing protection too depending on how far I push them in my ears. That way I can still hear people talk to me even with them in my ear. They come with a zip up pouch to hold them and the different size foam plugs.
@@TractorTimewithTim I have no need for it here , only in the 60s today but high 60s tomorrow, I do miss everyone back there but I don’t miss cold weather.. as they say new friends are easy to come by. Old friends should be cherish.
Minor point from a open deck operator. Direct securement halves the wll. So your 4400 lbs becomes 2200. That said DOT only requires half the weight of the load secured. Indirect securement (going from one side of the trailer over or through the load to the other side) gives the full WLL.
Ok, you are correct. However, I am simplifying it for our viewers. Direct tie down on the 4 corners has very simple math. Add up WLL of the 4 tie downs. That is the amount you can secure. This is due to the rules you state above. My math approach just makes it simpler.
@@TractorTimewithTim I can understand the keep it simple part. USAF vet so KISS was very important. Hopefully y'all have a great Christmas and a good new years.
My experience with Ariot is, it is difficult to find waist sizes above 38. I wore Ariat, when I was thin, but had to go to a different brand, after I got to a 40 waist size.
The bolt kit is pretty cool. Are used to go to Rural King and just grab a bunch of grade 8 and zinc coated bolts. I found it was easiest just to store them by thread size not length. I would have several lengths of the same thread size in the same bin. I still had to do a little sorting to find exactly what I needed but it was very easy to figure out where it would be. So I have five eights ranging from an inch to four or 5 inches and have five or six of each in there so if I needed oneIt would be in there if I didn’t have it then I would grab a longer one and cut it if absolutely necessary. Another neat idea I just thought I would be to weld or JB weld a nut on the outside so if you weren’t sure what size your boat was and weren’t good at judging you could screw it in and have five eights or whatever the size was written with that bolt or get a thread engage and hang it from the side of your rack or your bins. Then I did nuts sort of the same way. I did the mainly by size except when it came to nylock, Then I just put all the Nylok in a couple of bins with big ones and little ones. Long before I ever had bins I just bought big bags of them and I keep all of one size bolt in a big bag and then dump it out find what I need to dump it back in the bag. Are used to also keep spare socket with bolts so I didn’t have to go digging through sockets and just had some there quickly, but I didn’t always put them back correctly so you have to be a little careful with that. Lol
Nice video with helpful ideas. I have ISo tunes there nice. I'm looking for the larger sizes of wrenches thanks for sharing them as an idea. Happy Thanksgiving! Hope you have a great day.
I went to heavyhitch via your link looking for the bolt bin as I too dislike those other kits that give too much of what I don’t need. Unfortunately I do not see the bolt bin kit you described. Please let me know if this changes
Do you know if the Lube Shuttle Grease works with a Dewalt power grease gun? I just do not want yet another battery and charging system which I would have if I bought the Lube Shuttle power grease gun. Thanks and happy Thanksgiving...
I’m a Dewalt guy too. I’d be happy with a battery adapter to use with the Lube Shuttle power grease gun. I have that for a glue gun and works well. Also have an adapter to use the 20V battery on the older 18V tools.
In the millitary and in avionics we call them, “solder sleeves”. They are extremely useful and reliable. The curved metal attachment for the heat gun does work. Not sure how powerful your gun is, but those solder sleeves need about 700°.
If I had subscribed, I would cancel it after this. I don't watch this stuff to see a whole lot of paid commercials. Disappointing, Tim although I accept you need to make a dollar.

Harbor Freight has some big combo wrench sets. We have both the inch an metric set that we use at the largest animal health pharmaceutical company in the galaxy and they hold up just fine.
Another gift Idea for the tractor lover is a digital multi meter. One of the best tools to have when doing any type of electrical upgrade to a tractor. Cheers!
Always enjoy seeing the “goodies” and neat.items that you come up with. Puts me in the mood for more stuff! Thanksgiving blessings to you Christy and Katriel!
Where can I find the bolt bins stuff? I don't see it on their site. With me getting into baling hay next year, having a nice supply of nuts and bolts on hand will be a time saver for sure. Those solder connectors would have saved me a lot of time when I wired in the new lights on my B2410. They are soldered and sealed, but in several steps instead of just one. On my list for sure.
The rear heat shields work well Tim! We've used similar Solderseals (but much more expensive I'm sure) for years to wire aircraft mods in the Air Force. TIP: You can also cheat and mold some aluminum tape as a make-shift scoop around the other side of the Solderseal to direct the heat on the back side of the connector; if you don't have a defector. Also, see if you can find a smaller nozzle for your heat gun. It will help focus the heat more on the connector and not overheat & melt your wire insulation. You can also use the aluminum tape as a shield to protect the wire or things that you don't want heated. Thanks for the great gift ideas Tim! Another great video 👍
The wrap around heat shield on the heat gun is very useful. It helps get heat around what you want to get hot and shields it from other items you don't want to get hot. Only problem is that it tends to deflect heat out the sides which n.v usually means your fingers get a bit toasty. I've had that steering wheel spinner for many many years and yes it works very well. Never slips. Cheers!
Thank you Tim for reminding us about some of the items you have found so beneficial to you over the years. I saw a couple of items that I personally forgot about and will be purchasing. Have a blessed Thanksgiving :)
Thanks Tim. Always bringing some interesting and useful items to us. Happy Thanksgiving to you, Christy and family. We have so much to be thankful for.
I have a five-in-one rollover cultivator garden plow.....my Father invited..... I'm trying to sell the patent on it could any of you guys guide me in the right way
Thank you Tim for showing the isotunes line up and giving your recommendations on which is your favorite. I just bought a pair of for my husband to wear when he's out on our tractor or just to wear in everyday activities!
21:27, those spinner knobs are designed to clamp to a steering wheel spoke at the rim instead of just on the rim. Makes it rock solid. Have one on my older IH tractor that's been solid for years.
For a good quality and very competitive price 3/4” ratchet set it’s hard to beat the set from the case IH dealer. They come in a steep box, they’re made by snap on without the snappy name, and you can get the long interchangeable handle from snap on as well.
10:24 no magnets if you knock them off good luck. typically doesn't happen, but there is always that one kid who is going to play with them and they will ruin your day LOL. just the generic paper stickers. i mix bolts and nuts of 2 radically different sizes so you can't confuse them 1/4" 1/2" 3/4" 1" same with the 16ths, the 8ths, 32nds if your crazy you can go halfsies 1/2" and 1". metrics i go by 5's so 5mm 10mm 15mm 20mm 25mm then 6mm 11mm 16mm 21mm..you get the idea, radically different but patterned to make sense save time and speed up the search. if you really have time when you get new ones color code them with cheap spray paint when you see a blue on a bolt you can go to your blue spot painted bin and find a matching nut or quickly acquire a new replacement/additionals so my 5mm's would be blue, my 6mm's red, my 7mm's green, my 8mm's purple etc. bolts, washers, nuts, washers and lock washers mixed together. you get the idea. another way to label them is to take the manufacturers label cut it out of the box and just packing tape it on over the bin slot. razor knife them off on each side of the cardboard to reorganize if you want. K.I.S.S. no dumb label printers, no magic markers, no pencils/pens/crayons, and for godsake if your using barcodes some one needs to bury you in a shallow grave!
Spinner knobs also work well when you attach them to valve wheels around a waste water plant. The plastic seem to break down when exposed to the weather, but certainly a time saver when the valve has 24 to 40 turns open to close. Well worth the money. We always kept several new ones around for replacements.
I have a pair of Ariat boots with less than 3 months wear (soles look new). Sadly, the soles fell off. Not touching Ariat again, their quality has fallen of a cliff, at least their boots.
Im wanting to add a 2 inch reciever onto the boom pole gramps built and get a light duty pintle mount and change the splitter over to a pintle also cause when chunks fall off i worry about breaking the coupler handle off. Then the landscape add on would be handy for what i do with the blade for cleaning leaves but get some dirt
Great ideas. I got the Smart Connector last Christmas. It's pretty cool. Also got a couple of the Knipex pliers. And for this Christmas a pair of the Ariat Pants. Oh and everyone needs a set of big old monster size wrenches.
Couldn't agree more on the solder-seal connectors...I pretty much use them exclusively when the application permits. QUESTION: Can you recommend a video that shows the Cargo Buckles being used...I definitely like the look of those! Plus, I need to see if Kubota has a similar Bluetooth dongle. Lots of great ideas...great video! Happy Thanksgiving and have a great Holiday season TTWT family!
Thanks for the great ideas. I have TWO sets of the Isotunes and I let them know it was your recommendation that convinced me to get them. I'm very happy with them both, I keep a set in my barn and truck. What size Knipex pliers are you using, I like the size but they offer so many I wanted to get the same size.
I have learned something new every time you do this. I really like the looks of those electrical connectors. Darn Mud's is sold out of the deck brackets. I have tried different things for my X738 60HC deck for several winters now. Last winter I put lifting slings under the deck before I disconnected. Then picked it up with pallet forks on the 2025R and set it on one of the scaffolds like you used for this video. Thanks for that Menards black Friday tip a few years ago. I should look into the loader deck brackets again. I recently saw snow blower caster brackets at the Green Parts Store. I've been using lots of furniture carts for implements.
Such a good/bad influence, Tim ! Lol Just ordered the the Mudds custom deck kit. Have the big wheel kit currently and don't care for them. None locking, rolls easy, but a hassle to turn. Forget name. Could’ve sworn I saw it on one of your videos too. 😂
You’ve succeeded once again Tim! I back ordered the Mudd’s Customs mower deck stands. I have the Load-N-Go because of you already…(Yes, I love it!!!). I know that you love being accused of spending other people’s money, but I sincerely appreciate the TTWT discount!! Keep up the great work Tim and Christy!

Tim you might use a red marker on your metric bolts plastic bags and blue on the standard bolt bags.
I bought a set of the deck stands. Makes storage of the mower deck a snap.
Need a Smart Connector for 1025, lots of cool ideas
Great ideas. I got the Smart Connector last Christmas. It's pretty cool. Also got a couple of the Knipex pliers. And for this Christmas a pair of the Ariat Pants. Oh and everyone needs a set of big old monster size wrenches.
Yea, those monster wrenches will make you tougher!
Happy Thanksgiving thanks for the gift ideas.
I knew someone was listening to me in my living room...
I was just thinking I need a list for this year haha
Couldn't agree more on the solder-seal connectors...I pretty much use them exclusively when the application permits. QUESTION: Can you recommend a video that shows the Cargo Buckles being used...I definitely like the look of those! Plus, I need to see if Kubota has a similar Bluetooth dongle. Lots of great ideas...great video! Happy Thanksgiving and have a great Holiday season TTWT family!

@@TractorTimewithTim Thanks!
Thanks Tim
Thanks for the great ideas. I have TWO sets of the Isotunes and I let them know it was your recommendation that convinced me to get them. I'm very happy with them both, I keep a set in my barn and truck. What size Knipex pliers are you using, I like the size but they offer so many I wanted to get the same size.
7.25”
I’m pretty sure there are other retractable ratchets out there now where you don’t have to deal with trying to add chains or hooks to
These are the best. …in my opinion.
CargoBuckle offers a tail for theirs as well, but I don’t care for it.
peeping Tim.... Good ideas.
I have learned something new every time you do this. I really like the looks of those electrical connectors.
Darn Mud's is sold out of the deck brackets. I have tried different things for my X738 60HC deck for several winters now. Last winter I put lifting slings under the deck before I disconnected. Then picked it up with pallet forks on the 2025R and set it on one of the scaffolds like you used for this video. Thanks for that Menards black Friday tip a few years ago. I should look into the loader deck brackets again.
I recently saw snow blower caster brackets at the Green Parts Store. I've been using lots of furniture carts for implements.
Mudds say the deck stands back in stock soon.
Such a good/bad influence, Tim ! Lol
Just ordered the the Mudds custom deck kit. Have the big wheel kit currently and don't care for them. None locking, rolls easy, but a hassle to turn. Forget name. Could’ve sworn I saw it on one of your videos too. 😂
Only thing I have shown is the deck dolly….a large hand truck type dolly to pick up your deck for storage.
You’ve succeeded once again Tim! I back ordered the Mudd’s Customs mower deck stands. I have the Load-N-Go because of you already…(Yes, I love it!!!). I know that you love being accused of spending other people’s money, but I sincerely appreciate the TTWT discount!! Keep up the great work Tim and Christy!
Thanks Chuck! Deck stand will be available soon.
Love my cargo buckles. Use them for 1025 and side by side tie down. Thanks for the tip a few years ago
Glad you are enjoying them!
