    Rear tire fill - your thoughts appreciated

    Ha ha! Looks like @jyoutz beat me to it! :rolleyes: :oops: How about Bio Ballast ... https://envirotechservices.com/bio-ballast/ also a water soluble offering? I'm not sure why the fuss about if the inside of a wheel might rust out in 50 years vs 60 years? When more than half the tractors it...

    Don't want to rent, or do hay anymore ... I can get the 14+ acres cut with my big lawn mower in an afternoon ... https://www.orangetractortalks.com/forums/threads/my-big-lawn-mower.76624/

    MX6000 and Cat 1 implements

    My L5030 is a CAT 1/2 3pt hitch ... My top link is CAT 1, my lower arms are CAT 2 ... I used "bushings" in the lower arms to hook up my CAT 1 QH, and ended up using a CAT 2 upper hydraulic top link to get the length I needed, so, again used" bushings" to make it fit the CAT 1 pins ... Now I...

    Flail mowers on a BX

    That's not the half of it ... Standing down on the other side of the brush pile ... Looking from the top left of the last picture back down ... My back boundary fence is the purple line ... Out front ... And the side field ... It's the reason I bought the L5030 and the FDR 3690 90"...

    Rear tire fill - your thoughts appreciated

    Hopefully it doesn't rain where you are! :cool: If the inside of the rims are painted, I see no problem with water inside, that's why I put it in my Z-turn because it stays inside my garage, my tractor has WWF in it good to about 5°F as it stays in the barn ...

    Just another ballast box

    What are you planning on filling it with? Have you thought of incorporating a trailer hitch? A way to hold shovels/rakes? Chains or tools?

    If you were a cow ... Which side of this fence would you rather be eating on? Left side has lots of stuff to poke you in the eyes and nose ... Neighbor brush hogged it last year, but the stuff they don't/cant eat grows up, especially the stickers!

    Cellular security camera / trail camera for weekend camp..?

    Another thread where we are left hanging ... Wondering what the OP eventually did ... I use a Revel Tactacam X-Pro to monitor my driveway, it has both a GPS locator inside (if stollen you can track it) and a monitor for set up and aiming ... I use there lithium rechargeable battery ... It...

    Kubota LX3310 cab vs John Deere 4310 OS

    I think rear tire diameter (and load rating) makes the biggest difference in "ride comfort" ... Then wheel base ... Wider width also helps some with the side to side jostling ... I didn't notice any difference in ride quality/comfort when I switched from 4 ply fronts to 8 ply ... Both R4's.

    My former wife was barely 5'0" ... To make her feel better, I'd jokingly say I was only 4'25" ... !

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    I just bought the Schwaben kit, mine looks a little different than above, used it yesterday on my pickup ... It also came with a loose, unfitted air line quick connect ... But it fits in the blow molded case still ... This is what I bought...
