R4’s are far better. I have a 3032e with R4’s a 4310 with R4’s and a new to me 4510 with R1’s. I don’t care if I’m driving straight in 2wd the R1’s destroy the turf, simple principle R1’s are more aggressive. If your not playing around in mud R1’s are not the best. Most every dealer around me...

That a good price on that machine, do you have pictures? Any known issues? Are you willing to drive the machine south some to meet and pick up cash? Let me know by private message, thanks Rye.

So let's just say a L5030 Weight about 4000lbs 6' rotary cutter 1000lbs Loader just a guess to be safe 1000lbs So you have 6k load with no ballast weight or anything added. You have a 14k rated trailer. I would imagine you would need at min a 20' long trailer and I wouldn't be shocked if you...

Yes on my BX there is no clutch to smooth out the PTO engagement, it's on or off. I start the tiller in the air, it has no issues. I'm guessing like stated the heavy swinging blades are just a shock to the system. I will pull the exact model# off the KK and do an inter web search. I am pretty...

Yes it has swinging blades. Thanks fellas just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something, I sure am good at breaking things. You know what they say about a Jarhead, put him in a room with a rock and it will be lost, broken, or stolen.

Bx1800 with a King Kutter 4' Rotary, my bad.

Ok so I've used a rear tiller with no issue but whenever I put my rotary cutter behind the old girl and engage the pto it's violent. I've slowed the rpm till darn near a stall, picked it up a bit and it's horrible, so is their a secret? I've used rotary cutters on other machines and just don't...

Yep, I undercoat my truck every year or other year, no rust at all. I keep 3-4 cans around and put it on everything. The best part is if you have to heat something to remove it the stuff doesn't have a low flash point like PB, WD, etc. Its pretty amazing stuff.

From my understanding (not that I know anything) the La211 should be a direct fit on my BX1800. He said the only thing missing is a bolt/ seal that holds the hydraulic block from the loader to the supply/ pump on the tractor, I checked with Messicks and all the bolts and seals in that area are a...

Well then that changes things, lol. Thanks fellas just not sure the boss is going to go for it. Someone once said it can't hurt to ask, well he never met my wife.

Well I'm going to talk to the boss, aka wife. Issue I'm struggling with is I could sell mine (I'm in no hurry) and pick up a machine with less hours and a loader on it for about the same price (total paid for my machine and adding a loader). I also wonder how much use I would get out of it and...

Well talked to him this am and he said he will stand behind its operation and I have to pick it up from his house so he's got no where to hide so to speak. He said it has everything to include the adapter plate to hook up the hydraulics, he's just missing those bolts. Thanks again fellas, Rye.

Hey guys what price do you think is fair for a LA211 loader with the mounting brackets, loader valve, and all hydraulic lines to connect? Item is in normal used condition. It has been removed and he no longer has a tractor so I can't operate it to see that it functions, it's simply a load and go...

No worries, glad I could help. Rye.

Messicks Part # K2561-96140 Been there done that, I believe that is the latest and greatest part. Pull the old one and sender unit (it's one piece) pull the sending unit off the old seal and gasket, put the sender on the new one, put it back together. It comes with instructions. FWIW I...
