I’ve got a L3800 and I need to replace a few clogged zirks. Does anyone know if the zirks on my tractor are all the same size and same thread type? I’ve never replaced one before and I’d like to buy a kit to keep on hand. Thanks.

Over the past five years a lot of grease has accumulated and collected dirt and twigs around the pivot points. It’s a mess and I cleaned some of it of with WD-40 today. I guess I could hit it with a power washer but is there a better a to get this cleaned up?

I’ve got a 20’ trailer that I bought new two years ago. I rarely use it but it got me thinking when I pulled my tractor home 50 miles yesterday.

I swapped out my OEM toolbox for a 50 cal ammo can. I used the hardware from the toolbox and SMV sign to mount it. Ok, I ripped that idea off from someone else but I did add a $4 magnet tray to it. I'm tired of putting my pins and washers on the fender while changing implements, only to knock...

I've got some corrosion on my L3800 that I plan to take care of over the holidays. I would describe the areas as just staining or light rust. This product seems to have good reviews. Whatever I do, I plan to top coat with Kubota paint. Has anyone used this product or similar one they would...

I want to fabricate some supports for my canopy and have them connect to the loader frame. My thoughts were to fabricate some brackets and connect them to where I've circled by drilling and bolting. Then run the supports from the brackets to the canopy. Is this a bad idea?

Fortunately, I've never had a hose bust but I know it'll be there one day. If I get a pinhole leak or worse what should I do? Shut her down and just leave it in place until I get a new hose?

I put my titan pallet forks to work today. I moved one of our deer stands several hundred yards to a new plot. The pictures make it look easier than it was. We safely delivered it to it's new home but it was quite a challenge. We encountered lots of uneven ground, hills and water bars. On top...

I've been using Clear Diesel treatment for slime and water for as long as I've had my tractor. I just splash a little in the tank and fuel cans because it says the 32 oz container will treat 100 gallons. I noticed I had a little slime in my fuel can recently and I thought I might have been going...

Twice yesterday my bush hog bogged down and the tractor engine almost stalled. I lifted the cutter and the engine recovered. I was transitioning from thin grass and backed into some very thick, heavy bladed grass. The cutter was low to the ground and I realize now I should have raised the cutter...

I purchased my L3800 new in 2014. It's still cranking fine on the original battery but I've been wondering if I should just go ahead and replace it.

I picked up a 6' heavy duty landscape rake at a junk yard for cheap. I thought it was going to be a good tool for cleaning up but it really has been a big disappointment. Brush and branches get hung up in between the tines and I find myself constantly getting off the tractor to dislodge the...

We had some property cleared last year. I need to pull the logs that didn't burn out of the burn pile and move them across the property a few hundred yards. My plan is to use a set of log tongs like the one in the link. Am I on the right track or should I consider a different tool or implement...

I've got a bent hydraulic line on my loader. Fortunately, it is not ruptured. Is this something I can ignore or do I need to do something about it?

I'm kicking around the idea of getting a grapple but I'll need to have a third function valve installed. This is a modification I would have my dealer install. What is a ballpark price for this type of work?

I'm located in the deep south and I'm about to flush my radiator for the first time. Any suggestions or a particular brand? Doe anyone use pre-mix?

I've had my LED lights for about 9 months and I just got around to installing them. I decided to run them directly to the battery instead of tying into the factory work light wires. I ended up having a lot of excess wire form the harness I purchased. After some use, I may end up moving some...

I took a look under the hood today and was surprised to see this corrosion. Is this normal? My tractor is almost five years old. I keep it outside under two covers so it doesn't get rained on. What can I do to stop or slow it down? I'm sure it gets hot under there. Thanks.

I found these wires under my left fender. Are these the work light wires? [/url]

I have a custom made canopy that's heavy. Tightening the bolts on the ROPS just doesn't do a good job of keeping the canopy level. Does anyone else have this problem or a possible solution? If I could find something to wedge in the hinge gap that would probably do the trick. I may have to make...
