Funny that I stumbled on this topic. Here is perspective from someone who uses an L47 for a side business: Things I end up doing: A big chuck of business is fixing gravel driveways. These are existing/old or maybe even new/recent driveways that got worn out due to water damage or other...

Anyone know what part number?

Know what number is that? To least get telescoping stabilizers instead of turn buckles.

To add... the L47 third function GPM is 11.5 (on loader and on backhoe). The summit 20 GPM valve is 2x that so is fine. I think the M62 is 16 GPM at the third function... both are low, but are good numbers for 'low flow' attachments... you don't need or want 60 GPM for a tilt bucket or thumb and...

Update: I looked into this A LOT. I found that I can get a custom valve (similar to video above) from a shop or just piece together myself. Cost for a setup like that was more than the summit valve (also in this post), which seems more elegant so I went with that. It was about $250 for both...

Funny I was giving this some thought this weekend and stumble on this post. Maybe this helps. Currently I have a 24 foot trailer GVWR 10400. It weighs 2800 on a scale and matches the VIN sticker. I got it because it matched my 2013 toyota tundra 'work truck' max tow for 10400. I'm not sure why...

Since this discussion has about made in italy flail mowers, I'd want to add this one: https://www.peruzzousa.com/Fox-Cross-Series-s/124.htm They are made in Italy as well. Cost is like 6.5k for the 60 inch light duty or 7.5k for heavy duty. 8k for 72 inch. You can call an Iowa or Texas dealer...

Yes a finish mower rolls on the wheels. That is a cheaper china brand mower so perhaps wheels are not the best quality. Price shows as 1500... that's DIRT cheap as a good one cost 7k+ for that size... Side point is a dedicated riding mower or zero turn does a superior job mowing grass. For 7k...

Confused at what you're asking...your local kubota dealer will sell you the oil and filter cheapest vs going online. You only need to change it at 50 hours not when it's a new tractor. The oil is nothing special compared to any other brand with the same weight rating. The filter is made in...

WOT. PTO RPM mark on the tachometer is where you should engage the PTO and the minimum you should run. As you put load on it (including just moving the tractor/ engaging HST), it will drop to PTO RPM, but if you start at PTO RPM, it will drop lower, which is bad. WOT is where the rate PTO HP is.

There is a huge privacy concern with submitting DNA. Problem is that law enforcement is able to use the database. They don't have a 'direct link' to private company's data, however have a procedure to gain access. This helps catch criminals that would otherwise be cold cases. Sound good? Well...

Sold.

I’m near VA border and in VA diesel is 4.45 cheapest pump (not top tier and regular was 3.05 today). Other pumps in the area are 5 for diesel. In NC, it’s also about 5 cheapest. Why that one station consistently sells for cheaper is beyond me…never had a problem with ‘quality’ and they’re...

Befco H40-S72 is $6,826 + tax + shipping. Made in usa, nc. Not even a ditch bank model…similar ibex cost half as much and just as good…

With proper grade and soil it wont be wet. I guarantee it from person experience. Remove that muddy organic material down to subsoil, put in your lawn, and mine some proper shale/sandy soil, place it there and it wont stay wet if the grade is correct (ditched on uphill side that eventually leads...
