Normally the front driveshaft runs right down the middle of the oil pan, so you have to drain both sides of the oil pan to get out all the old oil. At least on my L3430 and L4060 you have to drain both sides.

I started torquing at 35lbs, I think that may be high I found a listing of a most vehicles and it was 18-20 for just about all of them. I have a friend that works at a quick lube and apparently it's pretty common on cars, they just use an over size plug of some type if it's stripped, more...

Just be careful not to over tighten, I learned my lesson last year and had to change the oil pan on my 3430 because stripped threads from over tightening. Now I always put the torque wrench on it so I don't get carried away. :-)

I won't forget the backhoe, the ROPS is another story I dented up the building the other day with that thing. :-) For sure if I had to do over again it would have been a 10 foot door.

I measured my L4060 with R4's the BH92 is 8 foot 3 inches, I have a 7 foot garage door so I always have to lower it down and then raise it back up in the garage. So far it hasn't been that big of hassle.

I noticed an L4330 at tractorhouse for sale that has 9,146 hours. I was wondering why they only wanted $9500 for it until I saw the hours.

It's a LA805 FEL, so far it has plenty of power for what I do which is mowing and digging and a little FEL work moving dirt around. I'm probably just going to leave the backhoe on since I kept the old L3430 for mowing. What I really like is the fuel usage, it's been using 1/2 gallon per hour no...

By the way, it is a BH92 backhoe.

It's about 22.5 ' with the backhoe on, I have 24' deep garage and it fits fine. You could always turn the backhoe to the side if you don't have enough depth. I was worried about the same things, I was really sweating the height but it worked out ok. I have to lower the backhoe down when bringing...

My garage door is 7 foot and my L4060 clears by a 1/2 inch with the ROPs down, if I have the backhoe on it clears it by 2 inches. So I would say you will be cutting it really close. I have R4 tires.
