    Top & Tilt Hose Organization

    Is that as high as the bracket on the ROPS can get? Or add 45* hydraulic adapters fittings on the backside of the bracket.... point them upward.

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Engine oil change, new air and Fuel filters, and today I'll change the antifreeze. Got new wheels and yokes for the finishing mower, will grease them and slap them on, too.

    https://www.tractordata.com/farm-tractors/000/5/6/566-white-2-105.html Says it has 540/1000. Got photos of the gear shifters around in the cab area? More the merrier....

    Help needed on a decision about rear hydraulics

    I mounted my 3 spools on top of the FEL valve, was able to use the hoses from the old FEL valve and screw them into the new valve. Just had to buy 1 hose to tie in from the old Power Beyond (high pressure out) port and connect it into the the new valve's IN port (P). What you'll need is "Open...

    Hydraulic valve.

    Kubota uses "Open Center Valves with Power Beyond" It has to be with Power beyond. After the 3 point hitch, the oil just dumps back into the "tank" (the middle section of the tractor).

    Stabilizer on my L4802

    After re-reading your question (and reply to the above statement about "getting the slack out"). Are you asking about the use of slotted hole ("third hole")? I personally, don't like the rear finishing mower to be hooked up so tight to the tractor. I want it to sway a little bit since I do...

    Stabilizer on my L4802

    This might not be the case but the very first hole on the stabilizer looks to have some crap / dirt / twigs in there (and mud covering the outside of it). I would unbolt it and pull it apart to clean it up, then try lubing it a little. For the most part, my left and right pin holes are rarely...

    How do you Keep track of maintenance and repairs.

    I just try to remember when I did things.... :rolleyes: I have a mind like a steel trap.... Unfortunately, it's rusted shut at the moment.

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Sort of, what most likely happen was that weather warmed up enough to break winter dormancy (got water flowing into the plant when warm) then it got down below freezing and the water in the plant cells froze and broke the cells. Plants can handle deep cold if it's dormant... but it's when it...

    New Cars/Trucks

    Best deal I've gotten from a dealer was the $17k on a Nissan Versa (2009) for $10k out the door... granted it was greatly help by $4,500 from "Cash for Clunkers" and Nissan's $1,750 rebate - I wanted to be the first guy at the dealership at 9 am Monday morning to "DO" the cash for clunkers...
