    New Cars/Trucks

    Keep the Equinox as it is really reliable. Had to replace an engine in a 2019 due to customer NEVER changing the oil in 44,000 miles found multiple low mileage engines in the $400-$500 range. Servicing a few that are approaching 200k on the newish body style(2018-2024). Out of curiosity found...

    smart putter geeks

    Take the ball out and clean it with window cleaner(No, brake clean does NOT work!) Then lightly blow out the cavity using shop air. Also your mouse will last longer if you clean your hands before using.

    Is getting a tiller worth it?

    I have a LX2610 HSDC(24.8 HP) and run a 58 inch rototiller. Yes it does take a little longer to till but can make the dirt into dust. I do a 100"x60" plot. Also check out the local used implement sites for a tiller as they really don't get used a lot and don't really wear out.

    LX3310 with 72” MMM

    I believe it matters if you have a cab or not. I have the LX2610HSDC with the R14T tires and the nineteen inch tires are not an option, but I bought my tractor in early 2020. The dealership was not familiar with this model as it was brand new at that time. Also I have the 60" MMM and was told...

    Tractor Disasters and Owner Abuse

    I priced the cab and a/c addition for my old BX2370 and for $2K more got an LX2610, would have okay at that but then got silly with implements.

    B2601 or lx 2610

    I have the LX2610 with the 60 inch deck and have no issues with the deck rolling on the ground. I was in the same spot as you, had a bx but want a back hoe. Ended up with a 2020 LX2610 HSDC

    K-Connect to Quick Hitch adapter

    Yes, it does need something across the top. Like to get it mostly finished and verify it works. Then the flatbar across the top might be a universal three point adapter. So it is usable year around.

    K-Connect to Quick Hitch adapter

    This model already has wheels. I was hoping for some input for making a mount as Kubota wants over $800 for just the mount. So therefore here is my idea.

    K-Connect to Quick Hitch adapter

    I recently picked up a V4491 rotary broom that I would like to use on my LX2610. I was wondering if any members made an adapter that I could steal the design of. The broom has a hydraulic motor that I was planning on running off of the third function. Any reason not to? I would like to use the...

    Gasoline Engine Swap - is it possible?

    I think a heated garage would be cheaper the swapping engines. You need to do some tests before swapping parts.

    Need help moving seat on LA765 tractor.

    I think LA765 is the loader model, does the tractor have numbers on the hood? Either way spray the horizontal rails on the bottom of the seat.

    Side by Side

    We have a Ranger and use it to push dead cars/trucks into shop. Owner had a RTV for a few hours till they took it up a hill. It was taken back to dealership and a Ranger replaced it. I have a older Mule 2510 that is a diesel will climb about anything but kinda slow doing it.
