Thanks guys, neighbor offered me 600 so that is about right I guess..... Thanks again.

Hi guys, Its the Newbie again, soon will post pics of the work I have done with the b3030. I have a question. I know you guys always have good answers.....I have this brush hog, it came with the Kubota, it was used 3 times....it is made by brush hog--its a razor back 6 foot brush hog...What...

He was here today working moving dirt with the b3030....DO YOU THINK I REMEMBERED TO TAKE PICTURES?? NOPE....not until he left did I remember.....Ugggggg taking him fishing at a dam tomorrow in central pa they are stocking it at 11 so it should be a limit of trout----LOTS Of fun..... he LOVES to...

Pictures, NO I do not----next time, after fishing Saturday we are going to finish the roof.....I WILL REMEMBER to take some then...... LOL My father DID use the front loader to do the lifting.....Honestly, my Dad just said this the day we worked, "My brain thinks im 21 and my body keeps telling...

Exactly, any project I have he always used to help. NOw due to back issues he cannot ---UNTIL NOW. I am redoing my bathroom--my dad was able to use the Kubota to load all the drywall, tile, and cabinets into a dumpster for me EVEN the tub--which I had to break into pieces with a sledge just to...

Well my 85 year old father (who worked on dozers his whole life in Bethlehem Steel)came over and lifted me up 6 feet under my deck to install and under deck roof (new Kubotaport actually). Saved me ladder time as I am not very good on a ladder, allowed him to actively help out, and HE STILL...

OK THANKS. I am soaking all this in. My buddy I bought this from tore both doors off leaving them open and pulling out of his garage... 2 weeks apart---900 buck mistakes....never did it again. THanks for the advice--it is "hung" on the latch now--I don't pin the hoe---but its hung on the...

Hi its me again, the newbie. Hey should I leave my backhoe down in the back when parked to get all the weight off the back of the tractor. Guys mentioned this hoe is VERY heavy for the B3030 which it is? Any input is greatly appreciated. Have not got to "level" anymore due to the mucky snowy...

Well guys made some progress today.... This evening I dug about 25 yds of the 50 I have to go to the woods behind my house---making the hillside level, amazing what the little b 3030 and a woods backhoe will do----leveling at a rate of about 5 feet per "move... feels nice n safe on "level" once...

WOW interesting info. Thanks Larry and all that have added. I guess what im left with is this. Clear a flat space at the top of the hill with the backhoe. keep flattening the top---whilst moving dirt to where I want it--which is around the front side of my home (unfortunately over my septic...

OK, I have measured my hill. The biggest drop is 10 inches in 4 feet..... used a T square and level...measuring at 48 inches. The average is 7 to 8 inches? Am I safe? LOL....... maybe you guys could give me some insight? next move is to tie a rope to the truck and the tractor and drive...

Thanks again guys I will do the 2x4 measure----I will also not put my bro in law on the downhill side of the tractor!!! LOL.... Perhaps the truck and the slight sag in the rope is also a great idea..... It could be I just "feel" like im going to tip. However, I did put the brake on and exit...

THanks so much Larry I will do that....great idea, guess with a protractor I could almost get an exact grade... I shall submit it in a day or so....

Larry, if I do put the bucket down--would that prevent a rollover? I wish someone was CLOSE to Bellwood Pa to kinda give insight to my hill im working on----there was a guy back on that hill tearing out stumps on a Case 580 c---he was sideways and never rolled---but that is a way different...

Thanks guys, I appreciate all the advice. It was just at the Kubota dealer for a woods backhoe, I showed him my backyard--he told me he rolled a b3030 before. I think he would have told me about the making the wheelbase wider if it was possible--but I can recheck. It already has bead juice in...
