    Thinking about buying an L2501 DT...any reviews or thoughts?

    I have the HST verson and love it. Have not needed more PTO power using a 5ft finish mower or 64" snowblower.

    Time for a purchase of a L2501

    L2501 is great, mine has been amazing. Definitely get the SSQA. Also I would strongly recommend pallet forks. Excellent for moving brush or logs or even big rocks when you dont have a grapple. Also great for moving anything on a pallet of course. I have a water tank on a pallet that I...

    l2501 owners opinions please

    Another happy L2501 owner here. Will be 3 years this summer. I have gotten a lot of value out of a standard tooth bar for my bucket, and a couple of relatively inexpensive attachments from Titan: These pallet forks... ...and this stump bucket. I just ordered a grapple and 3rd function...

    Help picking grapple for L2501

    I have an email inquiry into another dealer for the 0660. Im just concerned that it has very short tines on the bottom, limited digging because of a cross brace. And also its all smooth surfaces... lp 1060 looks better but was $1000 extra, seems like way too much. I was wondering if a...

    Help picking grapple for L2501

    Hi all, its been a while since I have been on the forum. I am finally taking the grapple plunge with my L2501. I have ordered a Land Pride 3rd function kit from Messicks - optimistic I can install this myself and save a few bucks. On the grapple itself I'm much less certain. It may...

    New Titan Stump Bucket for L2501

    I used the stump bucket this weekend to move about 15 large landscaping stones. They were maybe around 2ft in diameter, on average. Very easy to scoop and carry the stones with the stump bucket. And no damage at all in manipulating these heavy stones, though they often rested on the "teeth."...

    Land Pride mower FDR1660

    So I inspected the gearbox closely this evening after work. Took the dipstick out, checked the oil level, looks good. I am not sure what to think of my "missing plug." I think what I was looking at might actually BE a plug. It is threaded on the outside, fits a large allen wrench inside...

    Land Pride mower FDR1660

    I purchased a land pride finish mower (fdr1660) with my new L2501 in June and only recently used it for the first time. I used the mower to chop down some very large weeds, not the intended purpose i know but it worked great. Underside needed significant cleaning after but I assume with...

    New Titan Stump Bucket for L2501

    The bucket seems solid to me. I did everything I could with the L2501 and have no indication there was any weakness in the construction. I feel like I put in a pretty respectable effort on that stump. The bucket doesnt seem any worse for wear.

    New Titan Stump Bucket for L2501

    Got my new stump bucket from Titan Attachments yeaterday. Used it today to remove a couple of stumps. Works great. Allows you to dig deep around and under the stump and it breaks up small roots with the ripper teeth. I still had to cut some roots by hand of course but overall very happy with...

    Need tractor in NH - B or L?

    So I received my new L2501 yesterday and already spent a couple hours getting it dirty. I posted before that i ordered a box blade but changed my mind and got a 6' rake with wheels instead. Glad I went with the rake, have lots of use for it. Some comments: 1) I am glad I got the L and not...
