I don't know about you guys, but it bugs me to no end to find puddles under your tractor. I have been through several dinged-up oil pans, only to have them drip at the drain, or have the edges bent from years of over tightening.........then there's the back 3 bolts. LOL Donny M had mentioned before about making something to beef up the flanges and spread out the force of tightening the nuts. It sounded good to me, so I ordered an oil pan from TM, and wouldn't ya know it....it had a beefed up flange all the way around. Made for a great fit. I chased all bolt holes and bought new bolts,(needed 1" length), new gasket and now, no drippage! I also am experimenting with machine head screws for the back 3. No problems yet.
