I have a tartar. It’s able to be set up as reverse or forward. I changed it from reverse to forward and back to reverse. I did have a seal go bad where be tiller shaft connects to the side gear box. It was not bad to replace and not expensive. It was readily available. I’m not convinced that in...

I have an L4701DT (gear) that i purchased in late 2021 with a woods Brush Bull bb72.30 and I paid 32k new all in tractor and hog. I have just over 50 acres mixed between woods and open pretty evenly. I do a lot of ground engaging, habitat management type of work, bush Hogging and loader work. I...

Thanks To all for the great information. I talked to my dealer yesterday and was quoted $1150 for parts. We did not talk about installation at the dealer. I am really liking how clean OEM looks.

Thanks for all of the help and replies. I am completely uneducated on technical aspects of this. What would the difference between the float detent and spring center valves? Also, what would be some cases where I would need more than the base kit? I am assuming the base kit would allow me to...

When I purchased my L4701- I thought-- "I don't need to pay extra for rear remotes"........ bad call....... Fast forward and I wanted to rent a No till drill from the local conservation district, and discovered that it required rear remotes for use. SO- What are the best options for self...

I went with the L4701 vs mx5400 due to availability, trailering with my current truck trailer set up as well as price. I bought mine during the tractor shortage of Covid and it was on the lot. I wanted gear drive and the MX5400 on the lot was hst. I weighted my rear tires and don’t have any...

I for sure don't know first hand, but the driver for this post was this snip from the kubota site. How relative the term "improved" suspension is, I don't know lol.

Will the seat from an L4802 fit an L4701? I would love to upgrade the seat on my 4701. Thanks in advance.

This is putting words to what I was seeing. But I didn’t know what to call it. Thank you. Looking at it again this evening it’s the camber that seems unusual to me. The toe it is within spec. I’m assuming that the camber is too since it’s not adjustable there are just certain angles I look at it...

I’ve actually had fairly good luck with shear pins and running “budget” rotary cutters a lot harder than they get credit for. For about 12 years I ran a lower mfgr Andy 500 with shear bolts and cut pretty much anything my tractor would run down along with hitting my share of rocks and stumps...

This is what I do. Seems to work well for me. I'm finally growing out of the force it until it does what I want or breaks.... my batting average was getting to low with that method.

This is great. thank you'

L4701dt and a moderately well drained silt loam

I’m looking for opinions and experiences on what folks are using for cultipackers- What’s the pros and cons of 3 point vs tow behind how much does one need to weigh to be useful what are some good commercially available options if I can’t find a used one at auction. my primary use would be...
