I’m a firm believer in root cause diagnosis. I always say if you don’t find the root cause and address it, you’re bound to another failure. By no means am I using this platform to embarrass or draw attention to my customers predicament. I've been asked why I don't do "content" and if I ever will. I do my best to be respectful of every situation. Let's face it, nobody likes their laundry aired on social media. This is where we strive to educate so things like this don't happen again and don't happen to you. That being said, please please please stop using well water (no matter how clean you think it is) in cooling systems! This particular engine is a power unit for a pivot. Can you tell me what's missing in the picture and any guesses as to the root cause? Like we said, it's not about throwing stones. It's about preventing these failures in the future. Hope this helps someone!

So, your replacement compressor says “factory filled to meet system requirements”. I’ve had great success with my supplier however we never take it for granted! Double checking is always cheaper than a seized compressor doesn’t hurt as bad as the re-work👍🏽

We’re finally taking some time off to spend with family. We’ll be closed for the next couple days and back in on Tuesday the 25th. There’s no cell service where we are but I’ll be making a couple trips up the mountain to check messages. Thank you for your business and understanding.

We’re not a buffet but we have our customers coming back for seconds. When they do, we know we’re doing something right. This customer has come back to get a second helping of auger flight shoes from our friends at May Wes! This customer loved how these flight shoes quieted down the feed chute on his feed truck and the silage doesn’t stick in the winter. Why haven’t you done yours yet?

"We came, we saw, we fixed the A/C"!
This is the 8th one of these tractors we've done this year alone! I guess the word is getting around. Long story short, we do a complete A/C retro on your old tractors and get them pumping cold air for the summer heat. Question is, why haven't you had yours done yet? We also update the blower system and can upgrade you to a three speed fan switch for even more control. What we provide the highest quality brand new parts (no reman junk) with a full 1 year warranty and our labor guarantee to back that all up. You'll love the result. We're efficient, cost effective and this is another customer referral so we must be doing something right. Give us a call and see what we can do for you!

Well, we knew this would happen! We got some "schtuff" to do and I need help. It's been 3 years since we started and our customer base has kept us going and growing. If you're mechanical and willing to learn please reach out to me or stop by the shop. Not only do we have opportunities for a mechanic but also outside sales for attachments and flag sales Montana Flagpole Guy!
