    Outside the Cab Hydraulics Controls Solution for Kubota MX5400 cab

    I am age and mobility compromised and looking for outside the cab hydraulics controls (3 pairs) for an MX5400 cab tractor. I also had the cab upgraded with an air ride seat and will be adding front and rear LED work lights (to replace OEM halogens) as well as front and rear cameras on bars...

    The Intimidator is an excellent piece of equipment. I just need to learn how to use it more effectively. Buried rocks and tree saplings, here I come! I'm committed to eliminating as many brush cutter/rock encounters as possible, though it may take a lot of time and diesel.

    I'm about to give up and install pressure relief needle valves on my grapples' hydro lines ( Danuser Intimidator :love: and Chinese 😣double lid Rock-Root ) to make hydro connections easier (possible for me by myself).

    Also looking desperately for a mod that will let me operate the rear hydraulics from outside the cab (a major problem for me and my reduced mobility). May fab, have made, or purchase an expanded or perfed steel brush guard to supplement the inadequate grill protector. Fabing a 3-point hitch...

    Traded my NH for an MX5400 cab manual Xmission, air ride seat, loaded front & rear hydraulics (including 3d member and one side lift arm), ballasted rear Ag tires, and Pete's Quick-Hitch adapters (to accommodate non-standard older attachments. Presently equipping it with front & rear cameras...

    Kubota MX5400 cab Back Window Rock Protector Source, Recommendations & Best Prices

    Did it - brush cutter broke out my cab's back window with a thrown rock. (bound to happen in the north-central Arkansas Ozarks - rocks are our most experienced "crop".) I need source(s), recommendations, and best-delivered costs for a removable protector (expanded/perforated metal or...

    MX5400 Suspension seat with arm rests - Durafit Seat Cover number?

    Hi, 100AkerWood, I am also having difficulty acquiring a seat cover for my MX5400 cab. After Amazon Priming and ruining what I thought might do the job, I finally called Durafit and asked if they make a cover for my tractor with the seat upgraded to an airlift seat with armrests. I was told...

    Bought the Danuser Intimidator. As others have said, the grapple tip is impossible to see from the cab seat and a forward-looking camera is a near necessity. A ground guide assistant is a poor substitute. The long "snout" length and implement weight severely reduces digging and root braking...

    Danuser Intimidator

    Thanks for the advice, Jchonline, but hiring an excavator is not an option. I've already reinvested all the income I've been able to generate to date from the sale of harvested cedar in a forest mulcher. From here I will be gradually chipping away at what I can do myself until I can generate...

    Danuser Intimidator

    I have nearly 1000 acres of cedar-infested woodlands, but no illusions of ever getting them all. The plan now is to have as many of the saleable cedars logged out and sold as possible and to gradually clean up after the logger who will leave the stumps from the saleable size logs he cuts to...

    Danuser Intimidator

    Anybody here have any personal experience with a Danuser Intimidator on an Orange Tractor MX5400 with cab? Specifically, I need to remove all sizes of whole cedar trees, tops left after logging, their close-cut stumps, general woods litter, and brush piles. I understand that the nose tip is...

    Looking for MX-series grill guard

    Hi, Dawson, Gerald here (north-central Arkansas) and I'm just short of taking delivery of a Kubota cab model MX5400. One of my principal uses for the tractor will be to clear and clean up my heavily forested wooded acreages of cedar treetops, whole cedar trees of all sizes, undergrowth, and...

    Bucket Hooks

    Thanks for the feedback, Guys. More than which hooks to use, I am more concerned about whether or not to have the buck's top lip reinforced. I would have to hire it done because as a welder, I would better be described as a dauber. :-)
