    Grapple recommendations and experience

    I also have the MTL and I agree that the loader will be the weak spot .... under a grand for my 60"

    Filling Rear Tires

    I used washer fluid (-20 .. Missouri) in my 4701 rear tires ... bought at Menard's for a little over a dollar a gallon ... I used my 30 gal 12 volt sprayer to pump it in the tires ... jack up ... set stems at 10 or 2 o-clock ... pull the valve cores and begin ... I put 48 gallon in each tire and...

    what hydraulic fluid to use. B6000 FEL

    I'm curious about the off the shelf comment .. like 303? I'm about due on the L4701 for 50 hour change ... I figure Kubota hydraulic fluid & filters was the only way to go??

    Tree Puller

    Tree Puller

    if using the 3 point it would add more lift capacity ... I have watched a lot of video on you tube using the FEL and tree puller to remove trees .. they may be making it look to easy ... It may be cheaper to take the price of a puller and hire a big skid steer to pull them and I can haul it off...

    Tree Puller

    I like the ideal of the vertical cylinder .. adds a lot more lifting power.

    Tree Puller

    Some good ideals ... I'm hoping to do this with the front loader but not sure what the 4701 will do as it is only 8-9 GPM ... might be a little short on hydraulics?

    Pallet Forks + Boom

    I'm not looking to handle heavy loads, I figure a 2" trailer ball on top to move my empty trailer when needed and a chain hook on bottom to unload items from trailer ... I have a quick method fixed for my bucket to move the trailer now ... my bracket would be at the tips of the forks but for...
