    Electrical question for adding LED lights

    Thanks for the responses. The existing front facing LEDs are hooked into the spare accessory circuit under the right wheel well. from there it goes to the switch, which then has a wire going to each LED on each side of the ROPS. It's the E1176 LED light kit. Not sure the amp draw of these...

    Electrical question for adding LED lights

    Yes, the lights would work off the same switch, and turn on and off together--exactly what I want. I misspoke slightly, the wiring is not factory, it is what the dealer put on when they installed the kubota light kit. I'm not an electrical guy, where would this relay go, on the wire leading...

    Electrical question for adding LED lights

    I bought my MX with the factory kubota LED kit (see pic, shows one side but it's the same on both sides). I would like to add some rear facing LEDs as well and the dealer told me I can simply tie these into the factory LEDs on each side and they will operate off the same switch. Here's the...

    L01 Rear Ballast

    Just curious why you don't want alternative solutions, compared to what you are going thru getting weights on there? 3pt ballast also adds the benefit of less front axle strain/wear. Not being argumentative, just curious if it's a special application you have/need.

    MX5400 front axle missing bolt, or ...?

    Thanks for the info. Pardon my ignorance, but why is the bolt not in there? If we don't need it, why take the time to drill out the hole n the first place?

    MX5400 front axle missing bolt, or ...?

    Yes, would be nice, but beyond that I'm not a fan of the rust. It probably won't make a difference and rust out during the life of the tractor, but still...

    MX5400 front axle missing bolt, or ...?

    Yeah, true. I'm not planning on doing anything until I know what the hole is for. Hopefully someone will chime in with that tidbit of knowledge...

    MX5400 front axle missing bolt, or ...?

    I'm guessing I'm not the first to bring this up, but search didn't return any results. I've noticed on the front of both sides of my front axles, there is a threaded hole (starting to rust on the inside). I'm hoping these are mounting locations kubota used for painting and not a missing bolt...

    Idling vs shutdown and restart

    My OM says to let idle for 3-5 min before shutdown to allow the turbo to "slow down." Interesting...not sure if they really meant to say "cool" down or what.

    Thanks. I have loaded tires, but I do also plan to get a ballast box for hauling logs, etc. For the bales, I'll have a spear on the back too.
