I very much agree. I'd buy a Dirt Dog or IronCraft locally, so I can check them out first. It appears the Everything Attachments is only available direct from EA. I like the looks of the EA, but it's pricey. They do have free shipping, but only to a business address or a shipping dock. There's...

The both claim to be QH compatible, and I have both a Landpride and a Speeco QH. I've been using the Speeco lately because I don't like buying the adapters for the Landpride. But if it doesn't work with the QH, it's going back :)

Thanks. Yah, I'm happy they changed their name. I bought my rake when they were still Titan Implements, and I wasn't really aware of the difference. Later I found out, and was pleased I didn't wind up with some Titan Attachments garbage. I like that IronCraft is made in Decatur, TN, and that...

Being less expensive doesn't necessarily make it cheap. Some brands are overpriced and some brands are undervalued. I'm looking for an actual comparison, not a "It's cheaper therefore it must suck" shot from the hip evaluation.

I'm needing to get a box blade for my L4701, and I'm looking at the Dirt Dog SBX72 and the IronCraft 3206. The IronCraft is about $250 less expensive, and I'm wondering if I'm giving up anything going with them. I do have an IronCraft landscape rake that's done well. A local dealer also carries...

I ordered a 14" from Summit and a speed controller from Amazon. We'll see how that works. The 14" is around 1500 CFM, which is probably a tad much, but we'll have to see. If the CFM is too high or a 10" fits better, I'll order one. I know Ventrac and the expensive ROPS fan kit someone mentioned...

I've been searching for a high quality 12V fan to mount on the ROPS, something in the 6" to 8" range. I need it to be relatively water resistant in case I get caught in the rain (tractor is stored in a covered area). While not a deal breaker, 2 or 3 speeds would be nice, although I'd probably...

It looks like on the Kioti tractors that they put the grease fitting on the end of the pin. It's recessed to protect it. This seems like it should be less prone to breaking, and still leave the Zerk fitting protected.

OK, it failed the same way mine did, shown in the first picture.

Are you saying in split down the center long ways?

Why I don't disagree, there's no way Kubota will do that under warranty. Except for recall items, it's only warrantied when they actually fail. This was the first time I've had any warranty work done on it. If another one fails, I'll replace it myself. They're about $24 online, and that's...

No. I did finally end up talking to the shop tech, and they think it was a manufacturing defect in the pin itself. I also haven't run the FEL very hard. I mostly use forks or a litter bucket for moving stuff around, and nothing so heavy that I've ever had the hydraulics go into bypass.

I had the lower left SSQA pin split in the center on my LA765 on a L4701HST. I found it when I went to do a 10 hour greasing. It was covered under warranty, but I'm curious about is this common, unusual, or totally unheard of? The service center guys weren't much help.

Where'd you find that? I was looking for anything related to the kit, but pretty much came up empty.

Yeah. Except for man-handling the tire, looks time consuming but pretty straight forward.
